Top Ten Honorific Nicknames In Popular Music
Titles given to music legends to honor their contribution to the music industry.
-
King of Pop (Michael Jackson)
He was both a child prodigy from the age of 10 when he performed on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1970 and became the best-selling artist in the world when he released the album Thriller, which has sold more copies than any other album ever. How many child prodigies were able to become a huge success once they grew up? Not too many. Most do not succeed once they hit puberty.
Michael was able to reinvent himself starting with his album Off the Wall. He then had two more great albums, Thriller and Bad, which had five number-one hits from that album.
From rock bottom to number one. Michael Joseph Jackson broke the barrier of music. He took things too far in a good way. The singer of the best-selling album of all time. The singer who could dance like no other. The singer who not only cared for people, but the world itself. Michael Jackson will stay number one not only on the charts, but in our hearts.

Chithra deserves to be given this title!

Queen of Pop, Queen of Reinvention, Mistress of Music, Queen of Dance, Queen of Everything Music! Britney, Kylie Minogue, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Kesha, Christina Aguilera - all are like her children because they grew up drawing inspiration from the icon that was, is, and will be Madonna.
