Let's start with my top 10 artist. First, of all Michael Jackson. He is on the top of my list because of his first 2 solo albums. Off the Wall and Thriller were two of his best works. He was very popular, which later made him the King of Pop. What he did then was produce greatness. It couldn't be duplicated. The fans, the pandemonium, the Moonwalk is all that needs to be said. He has songs on his first two albums that you can still listen to. They are timeless classics. He was a great performer.....R.I.P. Janet Jackson is a great performer, and inventor of the dance the Snake. Who can forget her famous Rhythm Nation. Her songs Control, and Nasty. Throughout the years there have been tons of others. She's collaborated with some of the best.
She's guaranteed at least one hit on an album. Beyonce is a great artist and performer. I've been to her concerts and they were worth every penny paid. She performs from beginning to the end. She's had several hits with Destiny Child. She has also been fabulous as a solo artist. She has hit after hit. Her first solo album a hit. However, B-Day was full of hits. It surpassed the first album and has provided several accolades for the performer. Jay Z is one of the best rappers, living. He has had several hit albums. He has showed us what a Hard Knock life is. He has showed us how to "Wave, and Wave". He has also expanded his talents to other arenas. He was president of Def Jam. He has brought an NBA team. He has also launched a line of clothing. He's not just a rapper, but an entrepreneur. He's also married to #3 on the list.
Here's 5-10 of the list. Lauren Hill is a talent that is missed. She has been out of the industry for a while. Occasionally, making appearances every now and then. Despite, her not having any new music. The miseducation of Lauren Hill was an extraordinary album. If you never heard it, you must. For here contributions to that album and early contributions to The Fugees she is one of my favorite Artist. Prince is a talented musician, and artist. He is interestingly enough a good actor. He was great in the movie Purple Rain.
The movie was also a great movie. It introduced some of his musical acts, and upcoming songs. He is revolutionary as an artist. Run DMC made us rock out and still be hip with Rock this Way. Pioneers of the rap game, the Adidas wearing trio was the truth....R.I.P. Jam Master Jay. Lil Wayne has some rocking beats, and some talented artist on his new label. Despite, that I don't always know what Wayne is saying. When I can make it out his hooks, and verses are hot. Drake is a new artist. However, his new album has made people take notice of his talent. Everyone wants him on a record. He is talented and despite being a newcomer his lyrics are the truth.
Kayne West is a talented rapper, and producer. He has provided so club hits. He seems as though he express himself not only through songs but fashion as well. His fashion is very different from most. He is a trailblazer. However, it's great to be talented but also humble. So, he is number 10 on my list.
Maybe some of these will make your list.
