Record sales doesn't equal merit or artistic talent. Much of the time it represents a successful marketing machine at work.
The guy is full of himself - a product of his own P.R. dept. His music isn't memorable and will be little more than a footnote in the history books over time.

You are 100% correct. The fact that he writes, produces and in most cases plays every instrument on his albums is proof that he is a no talent hack.
He has been forgotten in time because, well, it's only been 23 years since he wrote When Doves Cry and I heard that on the radio today. It's only been 24 year since he released Little Red Corvette and I heard that the other day. Any day now they will stop playing this talentless piece of manufactured garbage.
I'm sure a magazine like Rolling Stone would never put not just one, but two of his records in their top 100 albums of all time list. . . oh that's right, they did.
Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it is without merit.
