1. Beyonce – Iconic and fantastic performer whose style will be remembered forever AND is the most powerful name in music right now.
2. Taylor Swift – Bey’s been around longer, which gives her more clout. But Taylor is SWIFT-ly (ha!) coming for Bey’s top spot. Bey is the better vocalist and performer (obviously), but Taylor has her songwriting skills to push her up so close to #1.
3. Lady Gaga – I’m going back and forth between switch her and Adele. Lady Gaga was the BIGGEST music star in the world at one point… but it was for such a short period of time. But still, her presence in the pop music world made an insanely powerful impact, and new performers are kinda still grasping at achieving her essence. I think (and hope) Gaga will have a comeback.
4. Adele – She is a fantastic songwriter (as is Lady Gaga) with a powerful voice, and people certainly bought the shit outta 21. I think she has the ability to have a much more consistent career than Lady Gaga, but she doesn’t create the same kind of splash Gaga can make. I’ll have to see what this new album is like. She’s only had two studio albums so far, so I think time still needs to tell.
5. Rihanna – Awww I love little Riri. She’s always a blast in the media. You wanna hate her cuz she’s so damn mean, but you just can’t because she’s so damn GOOD at being so damn mean. And c’mon. Her music is freaking GREAT (with the exception of the last two songs she’s put out). Granted, she’s kinda just a robot who is given those great songs… and she isn’t much of performer… and she isn’t a vocalist in the slightest… But whatever she does, it WORKS. So props to her.
6. Katy Perry – No.
