Do I see you selling over a million records? Haha nope

And to all the HATERS: Go get a life and stop judging others please and may God bless you because you need it URGENT

They only do generic pop. That's it. Not only that but they ruin good songs like One Way Or Another by Blondie.

Did the creator just make a Worst Singers list under a different name? 1D is like Pop only.

So overrated and talentless

3 Lil Wayne Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. is an American rapper from New Orleans, Louisiana. He was discovered by Brian "Baby" "Birdman" Williams at a very young age, and was signed to Cash Money Records, where he would be one quarter of the rap group Hot Boys. In the years to follow, he would go on to find his own ...read more.

There is no range of genres, he just can't innovate in anything other than banging girls, and himself, as heavily as his autotune.

Lil Wayne is the bast

Minaj is most known for her songs such as "Anaconda", "Super Bass", "Starships" and her feature on "Bang Bang".

Hybrid Theory, Meteora and Minutes to Midnight are great albums. A Thousand Suns had some bad songs, but still had good but underrated songs. Living Things may depend on your music taste (I like their songs from Living Things), but The Hunting Party was great! Linkin Park now got their take on a heavier sound than before!

The new Linkin Park is terrible. I like their older songs though. The band is really overrated.

Hybrid Theory & Meteora are amazing, Minutes To Midnight I don't know, BUT Living Things SOUNDS LIKE Bollywood... & IT SUCKS!

9 Jackie Evancho Jacqueline Marie "Jackie" Evancho is an American classical crossover singer who gained wide recognition at an early age. Since 2009, she has issued an EP and eight albums, including a platinum and gold album, and three Billboard 200 top 10 debuts. Evancho's latest album 'The Debut', was her eighth consecutive ...read more.

Do you even know what "Range of Genres" [good or bad] means?

It means how many different music styles an artist can perform in.

Jackie Evancho is nowhere close to "taking over" here, for instance you made 38 music-related lists, and Jackie Evancho is only on 5 of them [including negative ones].

Overall, she is on far fewer lists than Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus, Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, One Direction etc, etc. , out of the literally thousands of music lists here.

If what you meant to say with this list is "Artists I don't like", that's fine, but you should have said that.

You would think that a site with so many kid members would be happy about a kid legitimately being successful at age 10-14 due to hard work and talent, instead of auto-tuned Disney princesses who later freak out.

Plus she will get to continue being a star when she is an adult, which many child stars have ...more

Gemcloben, nobody thinks you are "bad", just factually incorrect.
There are currently 13 music related lists in the "newest" feed, and JE is in only one, and that is this one.
JE is in 2 out of 4 on the "new-popular" feed, but obviously she is popular.
Even SelfDestruct's list are not "mean", he actually helps her quite a bit with visibility.
Also "Worst Range of Genres" means somebody can only sing one kind of music. Many very good and popular artists/bands can only perform one style.
A better title would be "Artists I Don't Like".

This is bogus. Jackie sings opera arias, movie themes, sacred music, classical compositions, pop standards, tunes from rock artists (U2 and Evanescence) and has even done a few country songs. She has performed Taylor Swift's "Blank Space." How much more diverse can one person be?

In the current "newest" feed, there are 17 music-related lists, JE is not on any of them, far from taking over.
