VH1's 100 Greatest Artist EVER (Where did Hip Hop Artist fall on the list)

[white715]

How did I know before I entered this thread that it would be turned into a race thing? Smh...

Its not? The record industry has been about race long before me or you were on this earth.

Truefully no rapper should be on this list you dont need talent to be a rapper all they really do is talk on records they on dont play any instruments all they do is press buttons to make music

I didn't know everybody ranks Usher so high. Justin shouldn't be on there but Usher should be no wherenear this list either. have y'all forgot that they left of LUTHER VANDROSS!!!

Ike Hayes>>>>>>>Usher btw

 

[south4life]

They left out Luther Vandross, The Isley Brothers, Barry White, Janet Jackson, R.Kelly, Isaac Hayes and why in the hell is Justin Timberlake on the list and Usher isn't?
JT got most of his moves and sound from Michael Jackson and Usher, remember JT was singing bubblegum songs with N'Sync wearing a blonde curly fro and was goofy as fuck, now he is singing R&B and getting his style from Usher.
That's so disrespectful to have JT and not Usher on there, Beyonce but no Janet Jackson? again there would be no Beyonce without Janet, Beyonce was singing bubblegum songs like Bug-A-Boo and now she is Sasha Fierce, where u think she got her new style from?
Janet got more hits then Beyonce and Usher best album, Confessions, out shines all of JT's albums combined!

Bob Dylan and The Fuckin' Beatles over MJ @ Bob Marley? Fuck outta here with this bullshit.......

 

[josea82]

Shut Up, Lady Gaga is the new Madonna, stop with the disrespect of Mike.
Dude is the highest selling artist of all time, Thriller still hasn't been touched 27 years after it was released, Mike is the greatest artist of all time.
He is the first artist to have seven Top 10 singles from one album and it was only 9 songs on the album!
Thriller went 29x Multi-Platinum after it came out, Thriller is at 110 million sold, he has sold over 750 million albums Worldwide, 350 million in the U.S., 300 million in United Kingdom and that's the sales before he died, they went up more after he died.

 

[josea82]

Wtf does record sales and top 10 singles have to do with anything souja boy got top 10 singles insync and britney spears were doing crazy numbers earlier in the decade and they have no talent what so ever he was chris brown with better music

Like i said he was a entertainer not an artist when people emulate mj its either his dance moves or his music videos which he neither chereograph or directed they never try emulate his music like they do with bob dylan and the beatles who set music standards they just dont compare anybody to the beatles or bob dylan because no one can ever do what they have done but people compare shitty acts like jt chris brown and usher to mj

Nobody tried to emulate Mike's music?
Where are u from dude, go listen to all Justin Timberlake's albums, go listen to Usher's Confessions, Go listen to Ciara's albums, go listen to Ne-Yo's albums, go listen to Ralph Tresvant's albums, they all made songs that were patterned after Mike's, u even had rappers sampling Mike's music, stop hating on Mike.

This list is essentially an extention of the ongoing myth of white supremacy, glad to see my man from Antrax keep it real cuz without Little Richard and Chuck Berry and the great blues and jazz musicians there would be nobody to put on this "list". Without black folk there would be no American music scene and no British invason bands either.

What did the guy from anthrax say.

Just goes to show you that you have to be much more talented to make it as an artist of a minority race.
