Artists are conduits of meme energy, and who has the most meme energy depends on how much they can evoke a certain feeling/thought pattern.

The forces and feelings evoked come and go as trends with the culture. A good artist can change trends by changing what feelings and thoughts people want to identify with, changing the culture as well.

Bob Dylan was the best artist of the century just for his 60's run

Dylan changed songwriting forever, but James Brown was more musically influential - he invented funk, and disco proceeded directly out of that. all dance music from the '70s onward is based in some way on his invention. his cultural footprint is huge

>west
>greatest
pick one

>art
>objective
Fuck off, retards.

>(((artist)))

And all music derives from classical which was mostly Germans and the entire tuning system used in western music was invented by white europeans. The cultural footprint is huge.

we talkin bout the 20th century nigga

If we wanna go all back then cavemen unga bunga true musical gods

Zappa was probably best. that guy was genius and if he was born back in 17-19 century he would be on level of Mozart

Agreed. Too bad he wasted his talent making meme music.

Why are blacks so fucking good at music? There isn't ONE white artist nowadays who even comes close to touching this

>greatest musician of the 21st century
>isn't grimes
Lurk more

Cavemen created far more of a widespread influence - they invented rock, and are responsible for the lives of every living artist since the birth of man

>black

Kanye is the greatest artist of the 21st century so far
