I agree. Ed Sheeran just really sucks. Shawn’s out of his game (he should do modelling again or something), Selena was never really good (shoulda stayed as an actress, Brittany is just getting old, honestly, 6ix9ine is just 6ix9ine we need no explanation for him lmao, The Weekend is losing his game too and Ariana? (meh, she should’ve stayed in the acting business too).
Thanks for opportunities given, #Routenote.
all but The Weeknd deserve to be there, and Justin has like 2 good songs, he mid ig
Bts is best in the world. Bts is unique. No one can take the place of bts in the world
a lot of people agree to disagree man. i hate bts with every fiber of my being but that’s just my opinion. everyone’s music taste varies babe. just glad bad bunny got the hit on them as number 4.
Unique? They’re just a K-pop boy band? Basically just a modernized Backstreet Boys except even worse.
JUSTIN BIEBER IS WAAAAY BETTER THAN BTS AND I AM HIS LOYAL FAN AND I HAVE LISTENED TO ALL HIS SONGS
The most popular music artist in the world right now is Taylor Swift. She has been dominating the charts with her album, “Reputation”, which has been certified platinum in the United States.
so proud of benito, i mean to come from a small island in the caribbean to being one of the most well-known artists?? that’s latinx representation right there and i am proud of it <3
AC/DC is literally my all time fav. These “artists” will NEVER live up to thunderstruck. Thunderstruck cured my anxiety. AC/DC IS FOREVER THE BEST ARTIST EVER <3
