Bands/Musicians

Taking the title as one of the worst current musicians is a tough pill to swallow, but someone's got to claim it—and we fans will surely do it for them. Though they all might try their hardest, some bands and musicians&nbsp;just don't have what it takes to make great music. That, or they are in fact great musicians who like terrible music and think everyone else likes it too. Whether it's one or the other, these groups to follow are considered by many to be the worst musicians of their time, and may go on as the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-worst-bands-of-all-time" target="_blank">worst bands ever</a>. While we don't all mean to be so cruel, these bands have to find out someway or another. And hey, maybe they'll start making some good music—it's doubtful, though.Determining the worst music artists&nbsp;can be quite subjective, but these singers, bands, and rappers to follow earned it. While many of who's considered the worst artists out fall under the pop and rap genres,&nbsp;it's not all pop singers and hip-hop artists. Plenty of bands know how to make bad music as well. Just ask the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/worst-rock-bands/ranker-music" target="_blank">worst rock bands of all time</a>.From annoying little teenagers to washed-up men&nbsp;who just need to quit making music, this list of the worst current musicians has them all.

Everyone has their own idea of the best rappers today, but that doesn&#39;t necessarily denote the most famous rapper in the world right now. Sure, the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-greatest-rappers-of-all-time" target="_blank">best rapper in the world</a> could also be the most <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-rap-singers/anncasano" target="_blank">famous rapper</a>, but this isn&#39;t always the case. While there&#39;s room for opinion, there are also plenty of qualifying factors to consider. For instance, how&#39;s their most recent album selling? How often are they in the news and media? How big is their fan base? Of course, you&nbsp;are the fan base. You&#39;re the reason why the media covers them. So, who is the most famous rapper out right now according to you fans?

When it comes to the most popular rappers, Kanye&nbsp;West is certainly going to find himself toward the top of the list. However, plenty of current hip-hop artists and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/top-new-school-rappers/ranker-music" target="_blank">top new school rappers</a> who may not have his credentials could still be considered just as famous. How about Lil Uzi Vert? He is definitely one of the celebrity rappers. Some American rappers, like&nbsp;Childish Gambino, were celebrities before their music careers. He starred on the popular TV series&nbsp;Community.&nbsp;Is it his TV and movie stardom that puts him in the spotlight? As you can see, choosing the most famous rappers today isn&#39;t going to be easy, but that&#39;s where you fans come in.&nbsp;

Finally, a definitive list of the best rappers of all time, ranked by fans all over the world. From old school&nbsp;to the current top artists putting out&nbsp;<a href="/list/best-rap-songs-2020/music-lover" target="_blank">today&#39;s biggest hip hop hits</a>, this list counts down rap&#39;s best lyricists and game changers in history. Lil&#39; Wayne, Kendrick Lamar, Jay-Z, Eminem, Andre 3000, and Tupac&nbsp;are among the top hip-hop artists that appear on this amazing countdown. Famous rappers from all cities, dead or alive, and all races, from white and Black to Asian and Hispanic, are all vying to be crowned the greatest rapper ever.

What makes a rapper great? There are a number of differing good definitions and philosophies. Popular rapper J. Cole (who finds himself on the Ultimate List below) cites consistency as the most important attribute, and says it&#39;s important to look both for the big humorous &quot;punch&quot; lines as well as the underlying message of the rapper&#39;s songs. Nas (another iconic MC featured on the list) focuses as well on the meaning of the songs, as well as the scale and ambition of the rapper&#39;s narratives and storytelling. (He has also gone on the record as saying that there is no such thing as the &quot;best rapper&quot; or &quot;Greatest of All Time&quot; aka &quot;GOAT.&quot; Including influential rappers and best-selling artists, this list features successful MCs who are still considered some of the hottest names in the game today.&nbsp;

Numerous different skills and attributes all must come together to make a truly legendary MC. Obviously, a good rapper must display a sense of rhythm and an ability to compliment the beat in unpredictable and exciting ways. A gift for lyricism and vocabulary is similarly essential - you can have the flow of the century, but if the words don&#39;t come together to tell a compelling story or present a unique point of view, it&#39;s still not going to translate into a great hip-hop song. But of course there&#39;s also an intangible element that elevates some modern rappers into the ranks of the greatest of all time. Who are these&nbsp;rap legends&nbsp;who stand heads above the competition? Do you agree with the top 50 biggest rappers ever?&nbsp;You tell us, by voting for your favorites below or ranking your own list of top rappers of all time.

Some of the strangest opening act bookings no doubt leave music fans scratching their collective heads. Most of the time, an opening act 'gels' well with the headliner. Rock bands, for instance, tend to open for other, more well-known rock bands. Occasionally, though, for some reason, very, very unlikely pairings happen. Who on Earth thought of having Jimi Hendrix open for The Monkees? What crazy, deranged concert promoter decided that having The Afghan Whigs open for Aerosmith was a super good idea? This list includes some of <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/weirdest-fossils/eric-vega?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">the most bizarre</a> concert billings ever. Be sure to vote for those artists that you think are the most peculiar opening acts of all time, and, if you know of one not listed, by all means, add them! Everyone, it seems, has seen an oddly mismatched concert billing at one time or another.It's hard to imagine who thought having the Beastie Boys open for Madonna on her 1985 Virgin Tour was an awesome idea. Audiences generally hated it, and critics did too. And while the Beasties went on to great fame and fortune, that tour is probably not one of the highlights of their career. Flash forward to 2012, now, and behold, one of the strangest, most unusual opening act bookings to date: Kool &amp; the Gang will open shows for...Van Halen?! Yep. Apparently, this was David Lee Roth's bright idea. Celebrate good times, come on!An opening act is supposed to be less popular than the headliner. That's just how it works, right? Wrong. Sometimes, the opening act winds up stealing the show. In 1983, Stevie Ray Vaughan opened for The Moody Blues. And he was, as always, amazing. Headliners want opening acts to warm up the crowd, but not take away from their big show. The worst, oddest opening act billings resulted in disaster for some. Prince, of all people, was booed continually when he opened for The Rolling Stones in October of 1981. And Terence Trent D'Arby had the unfortunate status of opening act for Bruce Springsteen at New York's Madison Square Garden in June of 1993. Audiences did NOT like the choice: They booed throughout D'Arby's performance, and they also really pissed off The Boss - he cursed at them and then rushed through the show. And poor &quot;Weird Al&quot; Yankovic: He had the misfortune of opening for the new wave band Missing Persons in 1982. He's still somewhat traumatized by the experience, which he says included getting &quot;pelted for 45 minutes&quot; by &quot;anything that wasn't nailed down.&quot;Behold, the list of the most bizarre, strangest opening act bookings in music history. Don't boo, don't throw things -- just vote for your favorites!
