Bjork and Sade higher than Diana Ross and Michael Jackson. Gladys Knight, Barbra and Celine not in the top 100.

 

Whitney missing out on #1.

 

What a mess.

No Bruno.

Bjork higher than Diana Ross.

Barbra Streisand at #147.

Taylor and Rih above Jazmin, X, Kelly etc.

No Celine (!!!)

 

Whoever compiled this list should be fired, and Celine in particular deserves the biggest grovelling apology. Judging from their own criteria for inclusion in the list - she meets literally every single one of them.

I agree!

 

Even though there's no excuse for Celine's omission, I wonder if Rolling Stone has some kind of agenda. I mean, If you look at the top 10 there are no white singers in the list :skull:

So, how does the top ten being comprised of all Black singers make it appear as though RS have an agenda? 
 

ANSWER QUICKLY.

If certain people are far too ignorant or stupid to work that out then I'm not going to point it out to them, and spare me the "answer quickly" attitude because that sort of talk doesn't work with me.

Just answer the question…

 

It’s not that deep.

 

Why would RS have an agenda for their being no White singers in the top ten? 
 

Answer Quickly.

What a dumpster fire list overall :deadbanana4: They deserve all those lashings 

Honestly. 
 

This list is hilariously embarrassing and all-around pathetic.

I’m don’t know what people expect from list such as this. They almost always cause outrage and arguing. Which is it’s intent, to get everybody talking.

There you go again. I WAS actually going to answer you until I read that final part, so just for that I'm going to leave you hanging.

So it's not an exclusive vocalists list or artsy-fartsy stuff either, just bits of this and that. :deadbanana:

It's sad how desperate for clicks these once-respected music publications have become. They knew this list would rile people up and get them the ad revenue they're clearly in dire need for.

 

A BTS member on the list and above Kelly Clarkson is a crime against humanity.

Taylor Swift being on any list about singing is a hate crime.

The glaring omission of one of the greatest pop singers of all time is an affront to the human race.

 

Quote

Lady Gaga’s early classics play like slightly more strenuous variations on the great Madonna hits, though Stefani Germanotta was born with a more robust vocal range, a huskier natural tone, and an easier way with vocal acrobatics.

The Madonna drag. :rip:

 

They kinda snapped with the top ten, though. :clap3:

So basically it's just another example of a petty liddo using their platform to spew unnecessary hate about Madonna.  That along with the fact Gaga's much higher than those with more talent (when she shouldn't be) speaks volumes. :skull:

RS making fun of themselves again... always getting everything wrong

 

RS is a sycophant rag of ''journalism'', nothing more. 

 

Donny Hathaway so low at #126...  Taylor Swift at #106, Celine Dion nowhere to be found. And tens of other things I could say about it

 

Bey at #8 is laughable too. But then again, weve been known for years RS is on The Carters (and Ms. Swifts) payroll. So are we really surprised

Not Celine being MIA :deadbanana2:

 

Michael Jackson should absolutely be higher.

 

Jazmine Sullivan too.

 

Delete Taylor, Lana and Billie Whisper from this list.

 

A joke list pandering to deranged stans to keep their lights on and water running. These are the same people who ,just last year, called Formation the greatest video of all time when it's not even Beyonce's greatest. And had the audacity to include an Adele video :deadbanana2:

Brandy hanging out at the bottom of the list is also unforgivable; imagine ranking the Vocal Bible that low :rip:
