Top Ten Music Artists that Should Stop Getting Hate

Some of the artists I've put on the list are necessarily good, but some people take their hate too far and this is a list of music artists that should stop getting hate.
The Top Ten
1 Justin Bieber Justin Drew Bieber (born March 1, 1994) is a Canadian singer, songwriter, and record producer. He currently resides in Ontario, Canada and is Christian. He is the son of author Pattie Mallette. ...read more.

Why is Justin Bieber at the top of every negative list on his site? There is literally no way that a documentary about Justin Bieber is the single worst film of all time and is worse than Freddy Got Fingered, The Last Airbender, and The Human Centipede. There is no way that a book about Justin Bieber is the worst book of all time. He is not the most evil person in history. Why do you people think his birthday was the worst event in history?

I can't believe he is still #1 on the Worst Singers list.

Honestly, I don't find his new music any better or improved, he sounds equally as bad as his old music, unlike the popular opinion. Except his music got more boring and less annoying, but still bad. However, he gets way too much hate. Dahvie Vanity is a way worse singer than him, so is Kodak Black, Tyga, Chris Brown, and Cupcakke. Plus, people want him dead, which is just messed up in reality, that needs to stop.

Every Worst list out there he's #1. All because he released a few annoying song and has a bad attitude. He shouldn't be near the most Evil People. His documentary shouldn't even be in the top 10 of the worst movies list. Why the hell is he #1 on Worst Singers? He's completely mistreated. Give the hate a break, it's not funny anymore.

There are way worse music artists than him and yet he is treated worse than Mao Zedong. His haters are drug addicts.

2 Lady Gaga Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, known professionally as Lady Gaga, is an American singer, songwriter, and actress.

On the start of her career, she performed at an event called the Lollapalooza Festival during 2007 whereby a record label company Interscope found her due to her performance being “amusing” to watch. Since Interscope found her, she was a mastermind behind her songs with a team of producers namely Rob Fusari and RedOne. Most of her songs were deep unreleased cuts, due to her having more than 30 songs and 17 were picked. ...read more.

People hate her because she wears weird clothes. But who the heck cares about what she wears? She can actually sing at least, not like Taylor Swift and Britney Spears.

Admin, what happened to my description for her?

Her...appearance is why she's a bad singer?

3 Fall Out Boy Fall Out Boy is an American pop punk band formed in Wilmette, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, in 2001. The band consists of vocalist and guitarist Patrick Stump, bassist Pete Wentz, guitarist Joe Trohman, and drummer Andy Hurley.

True, they should not get as much hate as they get. They're awesome.

4 Nickelback Nickelback is a Canadian post-grunge band formed in 1995 in Hanna, Alberta, Canada. The band is composed of guitarist and lead vocalist Chad Kroeger, guitarist, keyboardist and backing vocalist Ryan Peake, bassist Mike Kroeger, and drummer Daniel Adair.

I included Nickelback because of the number of people on this website who constantly defend Nickelback. And I know that this will skyrocket to number one, so yeah. Nickelback has an incredibly divisive reputation. Everyone loves them and everyone hates them. However, are they really the worst band of all time? To be honest, BOTDF makes them look like Queen.

I'm extremely neutral on this band. I don't like them, but I don't hate them.

Nickelback is not an awful band,not great though. People only hate Chad Kroeger because they think he sings like a redneck, yet he does not sing so bad. Other than Rock Star, their songs are not even bad, they are alright.

5 Kesha Kesha Rose Sebert (formerly known as Ke$ha) was born on March 1st, 1987 in Los Angeles, United States. She is best known for her hits like Timber, Tik Tok, and We R Who We R. Kesha is an animal rights activist and she works for H.S.I. (Humane Society International). Kesha also stands up for L.G.B.T. rights in America

I can't believe Kesha wasn't on here earlier. Let's explain why she doesn't deserve her hate:

1. Her new music is awesome and deserves its praise for being meaningful and well-made.
2. Her older music was all meant to be joke music. It wasn't done just for the sake of it, but rather to make people laugh. Wish it didn't fail because if you watch the music videos for stuff like "Blow" and "Stephen", you'll know that it was satire.
3. The Dr. Luke controversy

Kesha is one of the best pop artists nowadays, and yet she still gets hate for "always talking about sex and parties".

I used to hate her because I was one of those people that thought she couldn't sing, but "Praying" left me completely speechless.

6 David Bowie David Robert Jones, known professionally as David Bowie (January 8, 1947 - January 10, 2016) was an English singer born in London, the son of a fundraiser and a waitress. He is credited for his experimental and creative musical discography which has won praise and accolades for many critics and fans. The man who the world knew as David Bowie was an actor, a painter, a philosopher, and many other things. But first and foremost, and what he was known for most, he was a rock star, covering every genre from psychedelic folk to industrial. His influence on fashion, music, and pop culture in general remains as his legacy--along, of course, with his unforgettable music.

David Bowie is not my all-time favorite singer, but David Bowie was a legend and legends do not deserve to be disrespected. Why is his album "Blackstar" #2 on Worst Albums? It's not even that bad of an album? Easily one of the most overhated singers on this website.

It was really the person who made the list's fault for putting Blackstar at the front of the Worst Albums of 2016 list. Then when people saw that, they accidentally voted for the item to write an opposing comment.

This and any other artist the "Visitor" hates belongs on this list

He gets no hate

7 Miley Cyrus Miley Ray Cyrus (born Destiny Hope Cyrus), known professionally as Miley Cyrus, is an American singer, songwriter, and actress. She was born on November 23, 1992, in Franklin, Tennessee, to Tish Cyrus and Billy Ray Cyrus. Her voice type is Mezzo-Soprano and spans 4 octaves... read more

Miley Cyrus went downhill from 2013 to 2015 because she released bad albums like Miley Cyrus and Her Dead Petz, and Bangerz. Almost all of the songs were awful. She became a twerking, sex-crazed freak. Her worst song was "Dooo It! " However, Miley Cyrus isn't bad anymore. She regrets making disgusting songs and now is making good, clean songs like "Malibu" and "Inspired" Anyone who thinks she is still a disgusting freak needs a reality check.

Look at that picture. She looks so happy and beautiful in Malibu. She is also clean and isn't on drugs anymore. At least she made some great songs on "Bangerz" like "FU" and "Wrecking Ball".

8 Adele Adele Laurie Blue Adkins (born 5 May 1988) is an English singer and songwriter. Graduating from the BRIT School for Performing Arts and Technology in 2006, Adele was given a recording contract by XL Recordings after a friend posted her demo on Myspace the same year. She is best known with her international hit singles like Rolling in the Deep, Someone Like You, Hello, Easy On Me and the success of her second, third and fourth studio album which is 21, 25 and 30.

Some people hate Adele just because she is overweight. Her being overweight does not make her bad, in fact she is one of the most talented singers of today, great performer. If she was skinny like Selena Gomez, would she have as much complaints about her looks? Probably not. That just shows how messed up the world can be.

I'm not sure if it's that people hate her, I think it's just that people may dislike her music because it's ballads and not rock and metal like most of the site is into. Personally, I love her and her music, she's way better than other pop artists of this generation, and even metalheads can agree

I used to think Adele had an annoying voice when I was younger, I was such a moron. Now that I'm older, I realized that Adele is actually a good singer. However, people hate her because THEY think she has an annoying voice and because her song "Hello" is overplayed. Seriously, this one girl at my school thinks Hello is one of the worst songs of all time solely because it is overplayed. First of all, Hello is actually a good song. Second of all, The Stupid Shape of You is more overplayed.

Admin, why did you take away my description for her as well?

9 One Direction One Direction (commonly abbreviated as 1D) were a British-Irish pop boy band based in London, composed of Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, and previously, Zayn Malik until his departure from the band on 25 March 2015. The group signed with Simon Cowell's record label Syco Records after forming and finishing third in the seventh series of the British televised singing competition The X Factor in 2010. Propelled to international success by social media, One Direction's four albums, Up All Night (2011), Take Me Home, Midnight Memories and Four topped charts in most major markets, and generated hit singles including "What Makes You Beautiful", "Live While We're Young", and ...read more.

One Direction makes cheesy songs about girls, however, they are not the worst band ever. At least the members are okay at singing on a technical standard, even though they kinda suck in my opinion. BOTDF is far worse with sexual and disgusting lyrics and singers who cannot sing at all.

While it is true that they aren't the worst band ever they did a Led Zeppelin and Ripped off loads of songs even their most popular songs are rip offs including What Makes You Beautiful and Best Song Ever

They rip off songs, and get hate for that.

Led Zeppelin rip off songs, and are considered one of the greatest rock bands ever.

The 1D hate just gets old.

I can't believe there are people out there who think One Direction is a worse band than Blood on the Dance Floor!! Do people seriously think "Baby you light up my world like nobody else" is a dumber lyric than "It's WRONG WRONG WRONG LIKE GAGA'S GOT A DING DONG"? How?

10 Rihanna Robyn Rihanna Fenty is a Barbadian-American pop singer. Born in Saint Michael and raised in Bridgetown, she first entered the music industry by recording demo tapes under the direction of record producer Evan Rogers in 2003. She ultimately signed a recording contract with Def Jam Recordings after auditioning for its then-president, hip-hop producer and rapper Jay Z.

She kind of deserves most of the hate she gets. She has one of the worst voices in the music industry and is an example of how anyone can make it as a "singer" today even with a lack of talent. I will admit she has a few decent songs but I can't help thinking they'd be even better if someone else sang them. Like, rihanna in love the way you lie sounds like a little girl whining.

Rihanna is kind of overhated on this website, to me. Her song "We Found Love" is hated only for being overplayed, when its actually not that bad.

"B-BUT YOU HATE SHAPE OF YOU FOR BEING OVERPLAYED! "

Shape of You is a boring, dull sex narrative with dumb lyrics. I hate it for being overplayed because it's a bad song, and bad songs shouldn't get played on the radio. We Found Love is a decent song. Plus, Rihanna isn't always naked in her music videos.

Five words guys. "Love The Way You Lie"

The Contenders
11 Meghan Trainor Meghan Elizabeth Trainor is an American singer and songwriter. Trainor's work has been recognized with several awards and nominations, including a Grammy Award, Music Business Association's Breakthrough Artist of the Year accolade and two Billboard Music Awards.

Let's address some of the undeserved hate that her singles get:

"All About That Bass" is accused of being skinny shaming when it actually isn't. The "skinny b*tches" line is followed up by a "nah, I'm just playing" line right afterwards, so that is not shaming at all. As for the "silicone Barbie doll" part, the whole purpose of that was for her to say, "I'm not skinny, so if you are into skinny people...go ahead and move along because I'm not skinny." I'm not saying this wasn't poorly executed, I'm just saying that these were her intentions.

"Lips Are Movin" is considered sexist...WHERE? There is literally no line from what I'm seeing that is sexist. The song is attacking ONE MAN and saying that this ONE MAN is a liar and is untrustworthy. She NEVER MENTIONED the entire gender in the song!

"Dear Future Husband" deserves its hate, the hate for "No" is honestly justified to me, and I can ...more

12 Pitbull Armando Christian Pérez, better known by his stage name Pitbull, is a Grammy (and Latin Grammy) winning Cuban-American rapper, songwriter and record producer.
13 Whitney Houston Whitney Elizabeth Houston (August 9, 1963 – February 11, 2012) was an American singer, actress, producer, and model. In 2009, Guinness World Records cited her as the most awarded female act of all time. Houston is one of pop music's best-selling music artists of all-time, with an estimated 170–200 million records sold worldwide. She released seven studio albums and three movie soundtrack albums, all of which have diamond, multi-platinum, platinum or gold certification.

If you hate Whitney's singing then your really high!

14 Flo Rida Tramar Lacel Dillard, better known by his stage name Flo Rida is an American rapper and pop music artist from Carol City, Florida. He is known for songs such as "Low", "Right Round", "Sugar", "Club Can't Handel Me", "Good Feeling", "Whistle", "Wild Ones", "My House" and "GDFR."
15 Taylor Swift Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She was born on December 13, 1989, in Reading, Pennsylvania. Swift is best known for writing personal songs and has won 13 Grammy Awards... read more

She's actually pretty good. Her country music has quite a bit of meaning to it and it's not all just breakup songs. "Bad Blood" was awful, but not her beautiful country songs and some of her pop such as "Style" and "Blank Space".

16 Avril Lavigne Avril Ramona Lavigne is a Canadian–French singer-songwriter and actress. By the age of 15, she had appeared on stage with Shania Twain; by 16, she had signed a two-album recording contract with Arista Records worth more than $2 million.
17 Rebecca Black Rebecca Black is a YouTube personality and singer who's infamous for her 2011 single "Friday," which was the most disliked video on YouTube until "Baby" by Justin Bieber became the most disliked video in 2012. She has also released other songs, including "My Moment" and "Saturday".

Friday was horrible, but is Rebecca Black still relevant anymore? Rebecca Black is a one-hit wonder at best and the rest of her songs are mediocre. She shouldn't be higher than Dahvie Vanity and Chris Brown on the Worst Singers list.

She's not relevant anymore so she isn't getting hate anymore.

18 Prince Prince Rogers Nelson (June 7, 1958 - April 21st, 2016) was an American musician, best known for being one of the most popular and influential artists from the 80s, with songs such as "Purple Rain", "Little Red Corvette", "1999", and "When Doves Cry" .

He's not really hated

19 Guns N' Roses Guns N' Roses is an American hard rock band from Los Angeles formed in 1985. The classic lineup, as signed to Geffen Records in 1986, consisted of vocalist Axl Rose, lead guitarist Slash, rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin, bassist Duff McKagan, and drummer Steven Adler. Apart from hard rock they are also associated with heavy metal. ...read more.

Chinese Democracy was almost 10 Years ago get over it besides it wasn't as bad as most people think

Guns N' Roses are legendary.

20 Rae Sremmurd Rae Sremmurd is an American hip hop duo, composed of two brothers, Khalif "Swae Lee" Brown (born June 7, 1995) and Aaquil "Slim Jxmmi" Brown (born December 29, 1993). They are best known for their platinum singles "No Flex Zone" and "No Type". They are signed to Mike WiLL Made-It's label, "EarDrummer Records", which is where their band name is derived from.

Um...who the hell added them?

21 cupcakKe Elizabeth Eden Harris, better known by her stage name, cupcakKe, is a rapper, singer, and songwriter. She was born on May 31, 1997 in Chicago, United States. Although she is best known for her sexually explicit lyrics, cupcakKe was raised in a church and is still a devout Christian.

Several of her songs carry good messages, and not all of her songs are about sex. You can't just listen to Deepthroat and say that you hate the artist

Nah, her music deserves hate, it sucks, it is some of the worst music I have ever listened to.

22 Selena Gomez Selena Marie Gomez is an American actress and singer. She is best known for songs like "Come & Get It", "Good For You", "Same Old Love", and "It Ain't Me". Selena Gomez's voice is mezzo-soprano but she usually sings in alto. She is best known for her role as Alex Russo in Wizards of Waverly Place.
23 Coldplay Coldplay are a British pop rock band formed in 1996. The band consists of Chris Martin (lead vocalist and pianist), Jonny Buckland (lead guitarist), Guy Berryman (bassist) and Will Champion (drummer and backing vocalist). Manager Phil Harvey is often considered an unofficial fifth member. The band renamed ...read more.
24 Tom DeLonge Thomas Matthew "Tom" DeLonge, Jr., is an American musician, singer, songwriter, record producer, entrepreneur, and film producer. He was born in Poway, California on December 13, 1975. When he was in high school at age 15, he got expelled for drinking at a basketball game. He also used to play the trumpet, but later played the electric guitar instead. He decided to form a band with Mark Hoppus and Scott Raynor called Blink-182. He was known for his guitar playing and his raspy voice. Years later in 2015, Tom left the band Blink-182. Other bands he was in include AVA and Box Car Racer.

He gets way too much hate, for either his singing voice, for the times he left Blink-182, and for his looks. First of all, just because Tom has some bad performances does not mean he cannot sing, I have seen videos where he can actually sing, Matt Skiba had some bad performances too, but I don't believe that he can't sing at all. Second, he left the first time to see his daughter, which he actually did, and he thought he would never return, so he started AVA. Plus, it was recorded in his home, so he can see his daughter, not somewhere else. The second time he left, he wanted to do more than just play in the same band, but Mark and Travis forced him to record an album in 6 months when he already had contract problems, he found it hard to commit to. Third, hating on someone for their looks is one of the stupidest reasons to hate a person. They hate him for gaining weight, or because his hair looks weird or whatever, or because he wears skinny jeans and a beanie. So what? He can wear ...more

Why does he get so much unfair hate? He is an awesome singer and a nice person in real life. Stop phrasing Taylor swift, while hating on Tom DeLonge. Just because he left Blink-182 does not mean he is a bad person. Dahivie vanity deserves every single hate he gets

If someone likes someone for their looks, people get furious, but if someone hates someone for their looks, no one cares
Tom DeLonge is really hated for his looks and for leaving Blink-182
Sure, he could of handled it better, but don't hate him for leaving
