Top 10 Worst Singers of 2024

These singers sucked in 2023 and might as well suck in 2024 as well. I understand that the year has only just begun, but this list will be updated with new entries as the year progresses.

Firstly, everyone has different tastes in music. Secondly, if you don't appreciate a particular singer, please don't just say "he/she is terrible" or "he/she is the worst singer ever." Instead, explain why you don't like them. Is it their vocals? Their lyrics? Their songwriting? Or their persona? Express your thoughts here!

Happy New Year, everybody!
The Top Ten
Tom MacDonald Thomas "Tom" MacDonald, born on September 21, 1988, is a Canadian rapper, songwriter, and former professional wrestler. He first gained attention with the release of his 2017 song "Dear Rappers." Since then, he has built a large independent following and has had multiple songs chart on the Billboard... read more

The grifter Canadian conservative edgelord rapper who we have to hear about each year because he keeps getting away with dropping some stupid song about opposing wokeness. Why does he keep getting away with this crap? WHY? Just stop listening to him. He has no talent, and all he does is post rage bait for MAGA supporters.

I know we should stop giving attention to this clown, but he still releases music that is consistently bad.

Just a conservative artist begging for attention. That's all I need to say.

6IX9INE Daniel Hernandez (born May 8, 1996), 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... read more

To be honest, he never had that much talent to begin with, but this guy has the personality of a sociopathic degenerate prick who likes to harm other people. How many jail or prison stints will he have to go through before the judge decides enough is enough and throws away the key?

His Latin album tanked hard, and he is finally fading into obscurity, thankfully. Now all he needs to do is go back to jail.

Tekashi69's new Blackballed album is terrible! In Shaka Laka, he just screams the entire time.

JoJo Siwa Joelle JoJo Siwa is an American dancer, singer, actress, and YouTuber. She gained fame through reality television and her presence on social media. In 2020, she competed as T-Rex on the reality singing competition The Masked Singer.

She is not a good artist. "Karma" is an absolute abomination of a song, an assault on the senses. The use of synthesized processed sounds and autotune in her voice is overwhelming. She's trying to be like Miley Cyrus was, and it's just failing.

Karma is just the worst song. Her vocals ruin what was a perfectly good song from 2012, and when the original was pop-rock, this new version is fake EDM. It completely deserved all its hate.

She's never really been that good in the first place, but she definitely hit rock bottom this year with her single "Karma." She'll probably release an album within the next couple of months, but I feel like it'll be panned by critics. Fantano is likely going to roast it and might even give it a "NOT GOOD" rating.

I was shocked he gave Tate McRae a "NOT GOOD" rating, but I wouldn't be surprised if he does the same with JoJo Siwa.

Sexyy Red

Just super inappropriate. I can't stand her.

What's with the name? It's just weird.

She is just another random copy-paste "bad" b**ch OVO just signed onto the label. She brings no musical talent whatsoever. She cannot rap one good verse to save her life.

She makes two songs with Drake just because she shows loyalty to OVO. Just a vapid Barbie doll, nothing more to her.

Jason Derulo Jason Joel Desrouleaux, known professionally as Jason Derulo, is an American singer, songwriter, and dancer. He rose to fame with his debut single "Whatcha Say," which was released in 2009 and went triple platinum. Other hit singles include "Ridin' Solo," "In My Head," "Wiggle," "Talk Dirty," "Trumpets,"... read more

Along with Katy Perry, Pitbull, Meghan Trainor, will.i.am, and other blasts from the recent past who all failed to reinvigorate their dwindling or irrelevant careers, so did this guy. In my opinion, although none of his songs made it onto my top 10 worst list, he just fails at making a song not boring.

Even back in the early-to-mid 2010s when he had relevance, he was a one- or two-trick pony, objectifying women in nearly every song he released while going along to beats that sound like they could've come out of some generic corporate Google ad. Now, this year and last year have just been sad release after sad release from him. There's a reason not many are even paying attention to him.

Nicki Minaj Onika Tanya Maraj, known professionally as Nicki Minaj (born December 8, 1982), is a Trinidadian-American rapper and pop artist. She is widely recognized for hits like "Anaconda," "Super Bass," "Starships," and her feature on "Bang Bang."... read more

After the release of "Big Foot" this year at the ripe age of 41, she should be up in the top 10. She disappointed me so much that she pissed me off.

Not a single shred of musical value in that single. Utterly trash. She deserves a spot on the top 10.

She released one of the worst diss tracks of all time with "Big Foot," where she disses Megan Thee Stallion in extremely poor taste by taking cheap shots at her supposed sexual life and mocking her being shot in the foot by Tory Lanez, as well as her deceased mother. That is one thing that must never be done on a diss track. It's so massively embarrassing it makes "Stupid H*" sound like "Bohemian Rhapsody."

Sean Combs Sean John Combs, also known by his stage names Puff Daddy, Puffy, P. Diddy, Diddy, Love, and Brother Love, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, actor, record producer, entrepreneur, and convicted felon... read more

With his legal issues... heck nah.

Yung Oogway
Sia Sia Kate Isobelle Furler (born December 18, 1975), referred to mononymously as Sia, is an Australian singer and songwriter. She released her debut album in 1997 but mainly gained mainstream attention in the 2010s... read more

While I'm on the spectrum and often behave very poorly, at least I don't discriminate against different races, genders, identities, ethnicities, or natural abilities. I used to act this way at least twice a month, but I have learned to regret it.

Sia, however, is racist and ableist, and I don't think she'll ever learn her lesson. I have, even though I can still behave terribly. My behavior is getting better, while hers is getting worse.

Her music makes her the female version of Lewis Capaldi. Lewis Capaldi's vocals are unlistenable in every way, and so are Sia's. Reasonable Woman is the worst album ever.

Forgiato Blow

Not only does he have one of the worst names in the history of hip hop and one of the worst beards in the entire universe, but his music is also just controversial for the sake of being controversial.

This includes his affiliation with Donald Trump and the Republicans, and his openly homophobic and transphobic lyrics on "Boycott Target." Not to mention that his name literally sounds like the name of a sex toy.

Boycott Target, seriously? Music has only gotten worse every year since 2020.

The Newcomers

? Sabrina Carpenter Sabrina Ann Lynn Carpenter is an American singer, songwriter, and actress. She portrayed the young Chloe Goodwin in The Goodwin Games and played Maya Hart in the Disney Channel series Girl Meets World. Carpenter also starred as Jenny Parker in the Disney Channel Original Movie Adventures in Babysitting... read more

TTPD was already really boring, but this was even more boring thanks to her "sweet" voice, her gross lyrics, her overall grossness, and upbeat melodies. This is music at its worst.

? Chappell Roan Kayleigh Rose Amstutz (born February 19, 1998), known professionally as Chappell Roan, is an American singer and songwriter recognized for her camp and drag queen-influenced aesthetic... read more

She's just a bad ripoff of Lana, and like many modern artists, she's extremely woke.

The Contenders
Meghan Trainor Meghan Elizabeth Trainor is an American singer and songwriter. Her work has been recognized with several awards and nominations, including a Grammy Award, the Music Business Association's Breakthrough Artist of the Year accolade, and two Billboard Music Awards. She rose to fame with her debut single... read more

She has never created anything new and just sounds worse every time she makes music. She's never been relevant, and that's amazing!

Her newfound success has definitely gone to her head. She managed to release a song that is worse than "Dear Future Husband" and "Me Too," and makes "All About That Bass" sound like "Bohemian Rhapsody." I really hope she fades back into obscurity this year.

Her newfound fame from TikTok seemed to have died down (hopefully) thanks to "Mother," which was definitely deserving of being on Fantano's worst songs of 2023 list!

Ronnie Radke Ronald Joseph Radke is an American singer, songwriter, rapper, musician, and record producer from Las Vegas, Nevada. He is best known as the lead vocalist of the rock band Falling In Reverse. Before forming Falling In Reverse, he was the original lead singer of Escape The Fate.
Oliver Anthony

His song "Rich Men North of Richmond" is bland at best and grating at worst. It also has fatphobic and classist lyrics.

Lil Mabu

He isn't THAT bad. He has some trash songs for sure, but at least he's better than Nettspend. I can make it through one or two Lil Mabu songs without feeling like I want to quit, and I even enjoy parts of his music. On the other hand, I cannot make it through a single Nettspend track.

He's so bad that he makes Vanilla Ice sound like a genius.

I don't hate him. He is just kind of annoying. He is definitely talented, but he wastes it on bad songs.

Adam Levine Adam Noah Levine is an American singer and songwriter. He is the lead vocalist for the Los Angeles pop rock band Maroon 5.

Levine began his musical career in 1994 when he co-founded the band Kara's Flowers, where he served as lead vocalist and guitarist. After limited success with their debut... read more

His vocals sound so tired, even without AutoTune. He needs to either retire or take vocal lessons, which would be ironic considering he was a coach on The Voice.

Dream (YouTuber)

Oh my god, Dream is overrated. Only Gen Alpha kids would like his music since they have the worst taste. At least Gen Z had decent taste in music. And please, stop singing Skibidi Toilet.

His songs are extremely boring. His voice doesn't sound good.

He was never a singer to begin with. His music sounds like, as Anthony Fantano put it, "AI-generated sadboy pop."

Colleen Ballinger Miranda Sings is a fictional character, created on the Internet in 2008 and portrayed by American comedian, actress, and YouTube personality, Colleen Ballinger. This character first appeared on the Internet in 2008... read more
Ice Spice Isis Naija Gaston (born January 1, 2000), known professionally as Ice Spice, is an American rapper. Born and raised in the Bronx, New York City, she began her musical career in 2021 while attending college, after meeting record producer RiotUSA... read more

Uncreative stage name, and she makes immature songs about pooping and being a baby. She promotes ageplay hard.

She is so inappropriate. Kids under 11 are listening to her.

Lackluster hit after lackluster hit, Ice Spice does not impress me. She's severely lacking in any musical traits that make her unique or interesting.

The lyrics for the song that got on my worst songs list this year, "Think You the S**t (Fart)," are awfully immature and grating. She is not a good music artist.

Jax

She's a worse singer than Gayle and Leah Kate combined. Her vocals are grating, and her lyrics are so preachy they're dehumanizing.

As for the music, it's 2000s-tinged pop rock at its worst, somewhere between Ashlee Simpson, Kelly Osbourne, Lindsay Lohan, and the worst songs made by Avril Lavigne or Demi Lovato. She also looks like a discount Kesha.

Jason Aldean Jason Aldine Williams, known professionally as Jason Aldean, is an American country music singer. He has been signed to BBR Music Group since 2005 and is one of the most successful artists in contemporary country music. As of 2025, he has released 11 studio albums and 41 solo singles.

"Try That in a Small Town"? More like "Try That in a Sundown Town." His song deserved all the backlash, although he denies it encourages violence.

Adam Calhoun

He released another album with Tommy the MacDonald Clown. Let's stop giving him attention as well.

Jimmy Fallon James Thomas "Jimmy" Fallon is an American comedian, television host, actor, singer, writer, and producer. He is best known for hosting "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon."

He just released a Christmas album. Who told him to do it when he cannot even sing? I hope Anthony Fantano roasts him at some point.

Why is this guy trying to be a musician now, and why does he think he's going to write the next Christmas classic? His latest Christmas song with Meghan Trainor, "Wrap Me Up," is easily one of the worst Christmas songs ever. I'd rather listen to "All I Want for Christmas Is You" on loop for an hour than ever hear "Wrap Me Up" again.

Not only is he just not funny anymore as a comedian and TV host, but he's also a terrible singer.

Drake Aubrey Drake Graham (born October 24, 1986) is a Canadian rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, and actor from Toronto. He first gained public attention as an actor on the Canadian series Degrassi: The Next Generation before launching a music career. Drake's become one of the world's best-selling... read more

He's definitely deserving of a number 10 spot. Sorry, Drake meat riders, but he's trash. After the huge Drake vs. Kendrick beef that happened this spring, Drake got knocked off the hip-hop throne and has now been doing desperate ploys to retain his attention and fame, which fortunately only brought about more mockery for him.

There were so many god-awful releases this year, from "Taylor Made Freestyle" (which he had to take down because he might've gotten sued had he left it up) to "Wah Gwan Delilah," "Rich Baby Daddy," or "The Heart (Part 6)." It has just been flop after flop after flop. He's cooked. His career is done for.

Anne-Marie Anne-Marie Rose Nicholson is an English singer-songwriter. She has attained several charting singles on the UK Singles Chart, including Clean Bandit's "Rockabye", which peaked at number one. Her other popular songs include "Alarm", "Ciao Adios", "Friends", "2002", "Don't Play", and "Kiss My (Uh Oh)",... read more

Not only has this singer never had any personality, but she really needs to grow up. No, seriously, she's 32, and her music still sounds like it was written by a teenager. I don't understand how she's still relevant.

The lyrics in her song "Unhealthy" basically go against the lyrics in "Self Control" by Bebe Rexha, right?

I want to cut my ears off anytime I hear her on the radio.

Lewis Capaldi Lewis Capaldi is a Scottish singer born on October 7, 1996. He is best known for his 2019 hit song Someone You Loved, the most popular track from his debut album, Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent.

He is also known for songs like Before You Go, Forget Me, and Wish You the Best... read more

All his songs are exactly the same. Taylor Swift keeps singing about her exes and heartbreak, but at least she tries to bring new ideas to the table.

Lewis Capaldi always sings about heartbreak without trying to change his musical style. I hope EVERYONE is so happy he's obscure!

Not only is his music painfully generic, but his vocals get annoying after repeated listens. I know we should have empathy for this man considering he was diagnosed with Tourette's syndrome, and it affects his performances. However, that won't make his music any less annoying.
