Eliminate one female singer

[BWRhasnoAC]

I wouldn't argue that. They were more about shock aesthetics and pushing social boundaries. Janis and Aretha were more about pure musical talent and performing from their gut.

That's why I can't stand the music industry. The real talent very rarely gets the glory. At least Mariah has a legit legendary voice.

Would any of us take any of 'em over peak Stevie for instance?

Are you fat shaming Aretha?

That's why The Replacements are my favorite band of all time. They gave a swift middle finger to all the things they were told to do in order to break out into superstardom at the level of REM and other iconic alternative bands of the time. They refused because it went against who they were and what they believed.

Why aren’t we eliminating one male singer?

Stupid ****.

This might be the easiest poll question of all time.

Im too close to this subject. A good friend of mine has toured with most of them doing pyrotechnics... I know the stories and you would not like most of them.

I’m already there, so this works for me.

Weird coincidence, I listened to Pleased To Meet Me for the first time in over a decade today.

You asked.... Beyonce is a POS. She treats everyone terribly... roadies, band members, backup dancers, sound board, EVERYONE. Nobody likes her and they all avoid her.

Madonna... very similar. Disrespectful to road crew and the locals that work security in the arenas. Most nights won't go onstage until after 11 pm. Very mouthy and curses a lot.

Mariah Carey similar to Beyonce but not as bad to the crew.

He hasn't worked with Taylor, so no story there. He hasn't toured with Rhianna either.

He has toured with several others not on the list... but he says hands down Beyonce is the worst.

Reminds me of a guy I met who was once a trainer for the Minnesota Timberwolves.

He told me the two biggest jerks in the NBA (this was some time ago) were...

Kevin Love

And then Kobe Bryant... who was in his own universe when it came to being an *******.

I know Taylor threw some huge bonuses to the trucking crews when she ran the Eras tour.

Taylor Swift. I’m so sick and tired of her. Get her out of here.

I kinda feel like hear more people ******** about Taylor Swift than Taylor Swift songs. Then again, I'm not often in positions where I have to listen to music against my will.

If the choice was Stevie Nicks vs all of the other options in the poll, I would get rid of all the rest and keep Stevie.

 

[Al_4_State]

Not a big fan of any, but Rihanna has no good music at all. The others all have at least one song I legitimately like.

 

[Frak]

I respect talent above all. Some of these have incredible voice talent, which is great. But very few on that list actually plays instruments and writes their own songs.

 

[RING4CY]

Beyonce gets eliminated for that "country" song alone.

 

[OscarBerkshire]

Its Mariah and its not close

Acting like all of these women aren't way more talented at music than anyone on this board (you included) has ever been at anything is pure hubris

I wasn't talking about myself but you do you.

I didn't realize you two were on a first name basis
