Top Ten Music Artists With Worst Personalities

The Top Ten
1 Chris Brown Christopher Maurice "Chris" Brown (born May 5, 1989) is an American singer, songwriter, dancer and actor. Born in Tappahannock, Virginia, he was involved in his church choir and several local talent shows from a young age. He is most well known for his physical assault towards the singer Rihanna in... read more

In all fairness the guy has been abusive to Rihanna in the past and put her into a hospital bed. A few years later punched a man with last name "Adams". After the grammy's award, he did not show remorse for any of it either. I'm surprised he isn't number one on this list.

Awful personality. For one, that lyric about his you-know-what in "Look At Me Now". Second of all and the biggest reason to hate him, he beat up Rihanna!

He should be banned for ever!
Why is her still allowed to make music?
And why the hell do people still buy/listening to his music?
Why are they so ignorant?

2 Kanye West Ye (born Kanye Omari West; June 8, 1977) is an American rapper, songwriter, record producer and fashion designer. He is regarded as one of the most influential, as well as controversial, artists of the 21st century. ...read more.

I am pretty sure the guy has made some great music in his career (I might listen to some of his older albums in the future), but he needs to stop getting into constant feuds and drama.
To sum it up, this guy isn't a bad musician, but he needs serious help because his recent behaviour just ain't it.
Examples of his feuds in 2022 so far includes his feud with Pete Davidson, him calling out Billie Eilish for apparently dissing Travis Scott (She only stopped her concert just to help one of her fans and she didn't even say anything about him) and the whole Kim Kardashian splitting up drama.

I think his music is pretty good. He has a way of producing that no other artist has. BUT one problem is his personality. This man has the ego larger than out galaxy. He claims to be some sort of god when it comes to rapping, just music in general. Also, let's not forget the time he interrupted Taylor Swift at the VMA's on 2009. Now I will say that Beyoncé did deserve it. But that doesn't mean that you should go up on a stage, steal the mic, and try to basically STEAL an award from a person.

He calls himself a god, calls himself Black Jesus, insulted Bruno Mars publicly who didn't do anything, is too sensitive about race, says George Bush hates black people and he insulted Taylor Swift. He's a decent rapper though.

I like some of his songs but he says a lot of dumb crap like when he once claimed that "slavery was a choice". Can't also forget how much he sucks off Trump.
Him interrupting Taylor Swift was an elite moment though.

3 Nicki Minaj Onika Tanya Maraj, known professionally as Nicki Minaj (born December 8, 1982) is a Trinidadian/American rapper / pop music artist. Minaj is most known for her songs such as "Anaconda", "Super Bass", "Starships" and her feature on "Bang Bang". Despite her controversial songs, Brent Staples from "The New York Times" claimed her to be 'the most influential female rapper of all time', presumably distinctive for her fast flow and her use of alter egos with Cockney accent. She has endorsed Adidas, MAC Cosmetics and Pepsi. Minaj has received ten Grammy-nominations throughout her career, and has won multiple awards including the Billboard's Women in Music 2011 Rising Star award.

She can't get over feuds, she tries way too hard to be badass, she gets plastic surgery and sings a lot about twerking or even twerks on stage, and she even encourages little girls to be all sexy without herself knowing it. Looks like you guys picked the right one.

She isn't a mean person. Her music is eh, but Nicki is absolutely not a bad person compared to JB. He's the only one that belongs on this list.

Nicki Minaj. My least favourite person in the world, I am proud to say.

That girl has no talent or anything at all, she can only be a perfect pornstar at bed

4 Axl Rose William Bruce Rose Jr., better known as 'Axl Rose', is an American singer born on February 6, 1962, in Lafayette, Indiana. He Is the founder and lead singer of the hard rock band Guns N' Roses. He is a celebrated but controversial figure in the world of rock.

Axl Rose has a great singing voice and all, but he's got anger issues and is somewhat arrogant. There have actually been times where he has jumped off the stage and beat people up over something stupid, and then left the concert - waste of people's money. And I have heard that there was one time where he didn't want the rest of the band performing because he had a problem with his throat. Guy needs anger management.

This dickhead is number 1.

Axl Rose is the worst person in the world because his voice is like a little girl's, and he is a racist. He is a dangerously and annoyingly guy. His face is so annoying and boring. I hate him so much. He's the most annoying thing ever.

Dear Axl Rose,

Please die and don't come back. Go to hell!

Awesome singer. But he is also known as Ass Rose for a reason.

5 Varg Vikernes Louis Cachet, (born Kristian Vikernes) more popularly known as Varg Vikernes, is a Norwegian musician, writer, and a convicted murderer and arsonist. He is known as the frontman of the one-man band Burzum (named after a word in the Black Speech, which is a fictional language in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings), which is considered one of the most influential bands in black metal history. He's also known for murdering Mayhem guitarist Euronymous and was sentenced to 21 years in prison in 1994.

I like Burzum's music but he truly is an ass.
The murder was in self defense sorta since yeah, he attacked first but Euronymous had plans to torture and kill him so he had to act.
It's mostly due to his political views that make him awful as he was a Neo Nazi at one point and while he seems to have dropped those views after being released from jail, just a few years back he was charged with inciting hatred towards Jews and Muslims and he also holds similar views even if he's abandoned Neo Nazism.

This guy easily has the worst personality here, like no one above has truly killed someone, only this guy has killed anyone, so according to the list I would totally say that this Black Metal guy has the worst personality.

Well, he LITERALLY KILLED SOMEONE, and I think he was basically "feeling cool" the worst way possible, even worse than how Justin Bieber was "feeling cool".

Many of the people on here are jerks but this guy is the worst he murderd someone, has Neo Nazi sympathies and was jailed for 21 years

6 Gene Simmons Chaim Witz, known professionally by his stage name Gene Simmons, is an Israeli-American musician, singer, songwriter, record producer, entrepreneur, actor and television personality.

Oh Gene, where do we start...

Supports Israel taking hostage of Palestine, tells depressed or suicidal people to just go die, brags about how rich and famous he is, how vain he is about being a successful rocker and for being a complete douche in general.

Unsurprisingly, he somehow represents an opposite of Kurt Cobain. Cobain usually stood away from publicity, was emotional and depressed and ultimately, fame got the best of him and he committed suicide because of it. Gene on the other hand embraces fame wholly, is a showoff and his fame has warped him into the rocker we all know and hate.

He may not be the worst, but Gene definitely deserves to be in the top 5.

I like KISS, but certainly not this guy. He tells depressed people to die, and is truly deceitful.

Shocked he's not #1.

7 Carrie Underwood Carrie Marie Underwood is an American singer, songwriter, and actress. She rose to fame as the winner of the fourth season of American Idol, in 2005. Her debut album, Some Hearts, was released in 2005.

Never read a good thing about meeting her, ever.

The way she treats normal people is just awful. She yells at workers, treats younger and older fans like trash and couldn't care less about it, very demanding and manipulative, also hurls racial slurs at people of a different ethnicity, etc. She is a complete monster and I hope people never respect her. We do not need these type of people in the world

Did you expect anything different after she says that it's okay to destroy property of an unfaithful lover? Even if it may land you in prison? No wonder Oklahoma has the highest female incarceration rates.

A member of multiple white nationalist groups and far-right Christian organisations. Coincidentally, also shares the same birthday as Osama bin Laden. Sickening that many Americans worship a TERRORIST! Bombing cars and killing people like Al-Qaeda, except this ‘Murican is white and not Muslim.

8 R. Kelly Robert Sylvester Kelly (born January 8, 1967), known professionally as R. Kelly, is an American singer, songwriter, record producer and convicted sex offender. He has been credited with helping to redefine R&B and hip hop, earning nicknames such as "the King of R&B", "the King of Pop-Soul", and the "Pied Piper of R&B." ...read more.

THis guy likes 15 year olds and cried during an intervire about hiding innocent kids in his basement.

9 Miley Cyrus Miley Ray Hemsworth (born Destiny Hope Cyrus), known 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 has 4 octaves. She became a teen idol starring as the character Miley Stewart in the Disney Channel television series Hannah Montana in 2006. After that Miley had numerous worldwide hits, such as ''Party in the USA'', '' We Can’t Stop'', and ''Wrecking Ball''. On December 23, 2018 she got married to Australian actor Liam Hemsworth, but they divorced shortly after.

She can't admit that her publicity stunts are just her way of trying to still be relevant (though her relevance has waned long ago). She claims that her crazy stunts are intended to call attention for her causes but only paint a negative picture for herself and her cause.

She could be a better singer if she puts all passion in her voice more than her lyrics I like her's music. She is not the worst singer. But she needs to work more on her lyrics and song then music

She tries way too hard to prove that she's not a little girl anymore. WE GET IT Cyrus! YOU'RE ALL GROWN UP! STOP! JUST STOP!

Bangerz is easily one of the worst albums of all time (thanks a lot Mike WiLL Made It) but I don't think she has done anything bad in real life.

10 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 label, Young Money, where he would sign popular artists such as Drake, Nicki Minaj and Tyga, and he would go on to be one of the most popular rappers of all time. ...read more.

He talks about so much money, sex and drugs that it's not only destroying hip hop, but it's also destroying his humanity. I hope one day that he'll wake up and realize what an animal he's truly become.

At least 2Pac had meaningful lyrics in some of his songs. All Lil Wayne ever talks about is drugs, money, women, sex, getting high on weed.
This guy glorifies doing trouble and getting arrested.

This guy has some of the worst lyrics I have ever heard, "weezy f baby and the f is for phenomenal," ARE YOU 4 REAL! This guy is also one of the biggest abusers of auto tune. How can anybody take this guy seriously?

Disgusting overrated idiot

The Contenders
11 Gary Glitter Gary Glitter is a former glam rock singer and songwriter. He sold over 20 million records and regained media attention in 1999 when child pornography were found on his laptop and committed sex offences with children. He was sentenced to 17 years in prison in 2015.

His music is good, but it's really hard to enjoy it due to... You know

He's a pedophile. Enough said!

His beard weird

12 6IX9INE Daniel Hernandez, known by his stage name 6ix9ine, also known as Tekashi69 or simply Tekashi, is an American rapper. He is mostly known for his legal issues, particularly his sexual crimes.

In 2015, Hernandez pleaded guilty to a felony count of use of a child in a sexual performance. However, he denied having any sexual contact with the girl. On February 1, 2019, he pleaded guilty to charges... read more

This guy is a pedo who snitches on everyone. Also, he's not even a real blood, he apparently joined just to expose them to popo.

How is this creep not #1? Heck, how did he even make it into the music industry?

13 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

DON'T KNOW WHY SHE'S ON HERE?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! She is a dumbass, auto-tune doe's all the work for her, she is a filthy girl, and all she "sings" about is getting drunk! She doesn't even sing, she talks like a drunk dingbat and auto-tune doe's the work for her! All of her fan are some lousy teenagers, who don't know what real music is. OPEN YOUR EYES, SHE'S NOT ACUALLY SINGING! A total disgrace to music...

Ke$ha is admittedly a but strange, but a sweet and kind person nonetheless. She cares about her fans and she always stays positive, despite her situation. And to that guy with the top comment right now, you don't dictate was is and isn't real music. I don't really care if you dislike her, or any other artist, that doesn't mean their music is any less "real". You're probably one of those rabid Beatle/Eminem fanboys that can't stand the thought of anyone else being popular.

She is actually one of the strongest, sweetest, and most genuine pop stars in the industry. Don't know why people hate her.

14 Kelly Clarkson Kelly Brianne Clarkson is an American singer, songwriter and children's book author. She rose to fame in 2002 after winning the inaugural season of the television series American Idol, which earned her a record deal with RCA Records. Clarkson's debut single, "A Moment Like This", topped the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and became the country's best-selling single of 2002. It was followed by the release... read more

I mean she sexually abuses her children. That counts as a bad personality, right?

I cannot believe this Jew hater is not any higher

No wonder nobody wants to collaborate with her ass.

15 Cardi B Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar (born October 11, 1992), known professionally as Cardi B, is an American rapper. Born and raised in New York City, she became an Internet celebrity by achieving popularity on Vine and Instagram. From 2015 to 2017, she appeared as a regular cast member on the VH1 reality television series Love & Hip Hop: New York, which depicted her pursuit of her music aspirations. She... read more

Her personality is way worse than her music, she was publicly compaining about Offset cheating on her when she drugs and robs men, she also always wants drama with people.

16 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.

Laugh out loud you spelled his name wrong. I'm actually a Belieber but he annoys me because he doesn't take responsibility for his own actions. Whenever he makes a mistake this is what I see him tweet "I'm only human and I make mistakes. I'm growing in The Lord" If he was a real Christian he would've been willing to turn away from sin. I pray everyday for him to be okay. I know this May sound creepy... But I have a bad feeling he's going to die soon.

His music sucks and he has a horrible personality to go with it. He's not that great yet he's so arrogant and full of himself. And he obviously has no class because he's even spit in people's faces before, which is about as low as you can go. There's NOTHING great about him. He's a joke!

I respect this guy. Probably the only man ( sorry for calling him man) who has topped so many lists on this site. All the lists that are having word 'worst' in their title. He has even topped the list 'worst movies of all time'. No one can beat him. The greatest worst of all time.

I don't GET IT! Its just a sad commentary of the world we live in, when the Justin's Beibers of the world are considered artists. I'm truly surprised that he is still considered relevant. I guess, I am being a part of the problem, by just posting this comment.

17 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 is so whiny and needy. She needs a guy in her life to prove her that she is good. I think her personality is the worst because to me, she's a hypocrite. She is like "I'm so perfect, blonde and tall, I'm the only sane singer and I don't do drugs, I'm so perfect". She passes the wrong messages to her fans, who are young girls that are actually inspired by her.

She isn't a bad person but god, is she whiny. Learn to take criticism instead of whining about people not liking your music. She even has a song where she compares not liking her music to being homophobic despite her not even being gay or bi or trans.

18 Ian Watkins Ian Watkins is a Welsh singer and convicted sex offender, best known as the former vocalist for the rock band Lostprophets. He was convicted of sexually assaulting multiple young children and babies, and was sentenced to 29 years in prison.

Convicted for RAPING babies! Not much needs to be said, except he needs to be HIGHER.

Definitely needs to be above Kesha.

19 Iggy Azalea Amethyst Amelia Kelly, born June 7, 1990 known professionally as Iggy Azalea, is an Australian rapper, singer, songwriter, and model.

She's a whiny wannabe ghetto diva who has 10 other people write crap rap lyrics for her. Also she doesn't freestyle, and doesn't have a popular song without someone else insanely popular featured in it. No one knew her before that song "Problem" with Ariana Grande

20 Ted Nugent Theodore Anthony "Ted" Nugent is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist and far right activist. Nugent initially gained fame as the lead guitarist of the Amboy Dukes, a band formed in 1963 that played psychedelic rock and hard rock.

Ultraconservative loon who thinks that animals don't have rights and anyone who thinks they do should have a spear in their chest, illegally shot a black bear(Key word: ILLEGALLY) and supported Apartheid claiming that black South Africans were "a different breed of man that still put bones in their noses, they still walk around naked, they wipe their butts with their hands". No joke.

Far-right child rapist who happens to be worshipped in the USA, because of guns and all that rubbish. Disgusting.

21 James Brown James Joseph Brown was an American singer, songwriter, dancer, musician, record producer and bandleader. A progenitor of funk music and a major figure of 20th century popular music and dance, he is often referred to as the "Godfather of Soul".

He is dead now!

22 Ariana Grande Ariana Grande-Butera (born June 26, 1993) is an American singer, songwriter, and actress. Her four-octave vocal range has received critical acclaim, and her personal life has been the subject of widespread media attention. She has received numerous accolades throughout her career, including two Grammy ...read more.

I don't think so anymore since she apologized for what she said and did. Needless to say, wishing death on your fans is still an awful thing to do.

She seems like a really difficult person to be around.

That donut incident says a lot about her personality.

It looks like her 15 minutes of fame are up

23 Lil Boosie Torrence Hatch, born November 14, 1982, is an American rapper from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He released his first independent album 'Youngest of the Camp' in 2000, followed by "For My Thugs" in 2002. He released two collaboration albums with Webbie, Ghetto Stories in 2003 and Gangsta Musik in 2004. In ...read more.

Eh...I used to really like this guy (he was my favorite rapper in 2014) but seeing the way he acts on instagram made me lose respect for him, he threatened to "murder someone's whole family", and I don't think it was just a joke because he spent an entire minute talking about how he would kill this person's family and their dog in the backyard too. He also acts immature when his album doesn't sell as much as he wanted it to.

24 Kid Rock Robert James Ritchie Sr., known professionally as Kid Rock, is an American singer-songwriter, rapper, musician, record producer, activist, minister and actor.
25 Marilyn Manson Brian Hugh Warner, better known by his stage name Marilyn Manson, is an American musician, songwriter, actor, painter, multimedia artist, author, and former music journalist.
