One of the most debated topics in music is who are the greatest singers of the past 30 years. Whether you're a huge Whitney Houston fan, or you've never missed one of Mariah Carey's live Christmas concerts, the best <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-female-singer-of-the-year?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">modern singers</a> of the last 30 years are some of the greatest talents the world has ever seen. From Michael Jackson's perfect performances, to Freddie Mercury's incredible vocal range, music fans have gathered a list of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/20-greatest-singers?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best singers</a> of the last 30 years for you to rank.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Who's one of the best singers of the past 30 years? For many, Madonna tops the list. When Madge arrived on the scene in the early '80s, she completely rocked the world of pop music with her third single, &quot;Holiday,&quot; and blew everyone away. She followed that up with hit classics like &quot;Lucky Star,&quot; &quot;Like a Virgin,&quot; and &quot;Material Girl,&quot; and the rest was history. Although his time on earth was short, Kurt Cobain revolutionized the grunge music scene with his gravely vocals and unruly guitar sounds. Cobain's unique combination of singing and screaming earned him a spot among the best on this list. &nbsp;Other <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/favorite-male-singers-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">favorite singers</a> on this list include Celine Dion, Prince, Sting, Billy Corgan, and many others. Vote up the best singers of the past 30 years below, and be sure to add any you feel belong in the discussion for the great singers of the past 30 years.

Ranking Top Bands and Artists

When VH1 polled fellow artists to name the greatest artists of all time, it seemed like a good idea---but in reality, the list was truly flawed. According to them, Coldplay is better than Pearl Jam, Mariah Carey is only greater than six artists, etc! Not to mention other impactful artists were left off of the list. So I thought that maybe we try the countdown one more time, only this time with the perspective of true music fans...YOU..

This list will begin in no particular order, you will see some names that didn&#39;t appear in VH1&#39;s version, no artist appears on the countdown twice, and the order is not my personal opinion (I personally think Bob Marley is the greatest artist of all time). If you don&#39;t like how the list looks, you have the power to change it. This list includes some of the <a href="/crowdranked-list/greatest-female-vocalists-of-the-past-10-years" target="_blank">greatest female vocalists of the past 10 years</a>, great <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-underrated-bands-2019/ranker-music" target="_blank">current bands</a>, and many of the <a href="/crowdranked-list/the-best-rock-bands-of-all-time" target="_blank">best rock bands and artists of all time</a>. Many of them are <a href="/list/rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-inductees/rockboy" target="_blank">in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame</a> - and some will be, eventually.

So many questions will be answered with the voting results on this list. Nirvana or Pearl Jam? 2Pac or Biggie? The Beatles or the Rolling Stones? Mariah Carey or Whitney Houston? Is Michael Jackson still the King or is Elvis the true immortal? Is Madonna still the undisputed Queen of Pop? Does anyone rock harder than Hendrix? Are Jay-Z and Beyonce the most powerful couple in music history? It&#39;s up to you to decide!

That's the Worst!

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.

The best rock vocalists of all time are the frontmen and leading ladies&nbsp;of our favorite rock bands, or those solo artists whose voices are some of the best ever. These talented men and women of rock could easily captivate audiences with just their vocals. Their voices set them and their bands above the rest and define them as the best rock singers of all time.&nbsp;

To be included on this list, the vocalists must be primarily known for their association with rock music and (obviously) must have a great voice. That really doesn&#39;t narrow down the many greatest rock singers in recent rock music history, though a certain few stand out as above and beyond all the rest. Greats like Robert Plant, David Bowie, Steve Perry and Neil Young come to mind, as do icons like Bono, Mick Jagger and Bruce Springsteen.

While there are many notable vocalists of today&#39;s rock music, arguably many of the best rock vocalists of all time are those from earlier generations. Elvis Presley, Freddie Mercury from Queen, John Lennon from The Beatles, Jim Morrison from The Doors, and Bob Dylan are only a few of some of the best rock vocalists ever, but also some of the most influential singers of all time. Freddie Mercury especially had an amazing voice and was ranked second only to Mariah Carey by <a href="/list/mtv_s-best-voices-in-music-ever/music-lover">MTV for the best voices in music ever</a>.

A perfect combination of range, power, articulation and control is needed to become one of the <a href="/list/rolling-stones_-100-greatest-vocalists-of-all-time/music-lover">greatest vocalists of all time</a>. All of those can be taught but the natural ability to have that golden voice, as all of these great rock vocalists possess, is nothing that can be learned.

While every artist on the list has had a great deal of success and many of whom very popular, these international vocalists were chosen for their versatility, emotion, vocal range, power and mastery in pop, rock, r&amp;b, and country music. This list includes the likes of Adele, Florence Welch, P!nk, and Lady Gaga.
