Beyonce
Mac DeMarco
James Blake
Deerhunter
Ariel Pink

Better over-rated than under payed

Don't agree with Kanye. TLOP didn't have its dick sucked nearly as much as his previous two records even though it hypothetically just could have.

I like this answer. Surely one of those last three can be replaced with Kendrick Lamar though.

1.Ed sheeran
2.Lana del rey
3.Twenty one pilots
4.Kendrick lamar
5.Merzbow

second part of this post was meant for

1. Drake
2. Beyonce
3. Future
4. The Weeknd
5. The Chainsmokers

1. swans
2. Vampire Weekend
3. Kurt Vile
4. Tame Impala
5. Jamie XX

narrowing this down was hard. i was also tempted to include deerhunter, grimes, real estate, how to dress well

if Kendrick Lamar isn't on your list then just stop

1. Kendrick Lamar
2. Beyonce
3. Drake
4. Radiohead
5. Adele

is Radiohead the only band that's most overrated for three decades in a row?

Obviously this

His list is stupid.

Of course they're overrated. They became cultural icons who's celebrity overshadowed their music. They became images instead of people, which means it's not possible to live up to that, so therefore they're overrated by default.

What a dumb and pointless statement.

>Prince
>Overrated

Is this fucking real?

>Swans

1. Grimes
2. Grimes
3. Ed Sheeran
4. 21 Pilots
5. Grimes

If that's 100% the case then Michael Jackson should be firmly in the #3 spot, idiot. But he's not.

idiot

come on, there's a million more overrated artists than Kendrick Lamar
Drake, Beyonce, Solange, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Adele, Lana Del Rey, Twenty One Pilots, The Chainsmokers, Ed Sheeran, Future, Young Thug, Lil Yachty, Travis Scott...

>dat no 1
lmao ofc

1. Danny Brown
2. Kendrick Lamar
3. Death Grips
4. Animal Collective
5. Anything Damon Albarn has touched

michael jackson should be there anyway thoguh

i didn't make the list fucktard. your dumb italian contrarian god did.

there are more than 5 global icons in music, those are just the ones he chose.

It's impossible for him to not be overrated in the same way that the Beatles can only be overrated. He is one of the greatest musicians of all time so he can't be underrated, most likely this person just doesn't like him as much

1-5. Anyone whose music reached top 100 simply because they died.

barely overrated and only because gira's such a critical darling with barely any dissent

that's why I don't include Kendrick, Kanye, etc.

I know that to people who dislike Kanye, he seems incredibly overrated. But the truth is that there are *a lot* of guys like that who *really* don't like Kanye, and their opinion matters--it makes it so that, in the aggregate, he's polarizing. Swans isn't really very polarizing. People who know Swans uniformly rate Swans extremely highly, and Swans releases routinely make critics' and listeners' top 5 lists.

There aren't a whole lot of people running around like "fuck Swans and everyone who likes them"--not the way there is with people like Kanye.

Ed Sheeran
Death Grips
Kanye West
Kendrick Lamar
Chainsmokers

thank you, this is exactly what I was saying.

fuck Swans and everyone who likes them

>i didn't make the list fucktard. your dumb italian contrarian god did.
Exactly. If the list was based solely on iconism, then he would've placed Michael Jackson at #3.

Learn how to fucking read.

Kanye is the black Ed Sheeran

>there are more than 5 global icons in music, those are just the ones he chose.

>learn how to fucking read
you first

1. Adele
2. Kanye West
3. Beyonce
4. Lil Wayne
5. Twenty One Pilots

Yeah, recently they've been critically acclaimed and Scaruffi has always loved them, but they don't even have 100,000 listeners on Spotify.

How can art be overrated or underrated?

Grimes
Any of the big 4 thrash bands
Kendrick
Radiohead
Green Day

1. Beyonce
2. Drake
==Below are more concerning Sup Forums and critic-space==
3. Danny Brown
4. Swans
5. MF DOOM

Shut the fuck up you're not as smart as you think you are.

Small minded people not focusing on the art, focusing only on what others say about it.

>>there are more than 5 global icons in music
Yeah, with some being vastly more iconic than others.

Look at the list of best-selling artists. Just the top 3. With that in mind, how come MJ isn't ranked on the Scaruffi list? Because he factors in more than just how iconic the artists are.

Reminder than overrated/underrated discusses the perception and reaction to music, rather than the music itself, and is the crutch of lazy criticism. if you actually discuss an artist being overrated/underrated, you should simply stop discussing music altogether

>doesn't know what a list is

scruffs probably puts some consideration on whether the masses believe an artist was -musically- influential
i'm pretty sure most people don't actually try to claim mj was anything much more than a terrific performer, so he doesn't see the popularity of mj being of a highly rated nature

He deserves the acclaim

You can have a list of one thing.

1 Frank Ocean
.

>>list:
>a number of connected items or names written or printed consecutively, typically one below the other.

No wonder people tend not to take this place seriously.

1. Beyonce
2. Drake
3. Tame Impala
4. Solange
5. Sufjan Stevens
6. The National
7. Beach House

How can you not be fully erect when listening to this?

p4kcore:

vampire weeknd
tame impala
the xx
grimeshit
future

one thing is still a number of them

Forgot to include Interpol for the ultimate post-punk-revival defener trifecta

I agree with all this, which is why everyone ITT listing artists like Adele is fucking stupid because no one would claim she's innovative in any capacity.

It's also why Kendrick Lamar does decidedly deserve a spot, because he most certainly is overrated in that regard. Even speaking as a fan I'm sure anyone could agree to that.

>5. Sufjan Stevens
>6. The National
rude

>interpol
>overrated in the 2010s
no

1. Kanye
2. Bowie
3. Sun Kil Moon
4. Carly Rae Jepsen
5. Tame Impala

I forgot they put out a 2010 and a 2014 album but those werent well recieved, if we are talking over rated of the 2000s thats a new list

Nah, you just rustled my jimmies with those last two picks, so I had to take the bait.

Sufjan I enjoy I just think he is overrated, The national is the most bland indie rock ever, fuck that band

I'm not claiming WHY he made the list. I'm just saying why his list is retarded.

>death grips
>swans
get off the internet

more popular does not mean more overrated

yeah my bad I went back to the beginning of the argument and realized I just interpreted your first post wrong. we're cool

elvis is the worst of these

No it isn't, because 'them' is plural.

Nah The National are good

i like swans, but you don't need to dick suck

have some self respect

You're really embarrassing me here.

k cool. love you, see you at the reunion.

2 your mom

>list of the top 5

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_they
Them being an inflected form of 'they' for those in remedial English.

I usually agree with Scaruffi but how can he say that Pavement and GBV is overrated and not even mention Nirvana?

bc he is le retard contrarian who just says things because that's how he feels and then when he can't back it up somehow he just blatantly uses false facts i.e. his beatles essay.

Artist names are proper nouns; not common nouns of indeterminate gender.

If by 'them' you mean a number of artists, then no - one thing isn't.

We get it, you have issues

Looks about right

1. Every fucking rapper ever
There's no list

Only by this board
In general, I would say swap Death Grips & Swans for Beyonce and Arctic Monkeys

kek

>There's no list
there would be once you listed every rapper.

go back to /metal/ retard

Kanye West
Vince Staples
Frank Ocean
Drake
Chance the Rapper

le real hip hop listener right here. THROW UP SOME KRS ONE

1. Beyoncé
2. Drake
3. Taylor Swift
4. Kanye West
5. Kendrick Lamar

I was tempted to rank Kanye higher but at least he has done some innovative production work over the years. Beyoncé, Drake and Taylor are total hacks who don't deserve any of the praise that they get.

Everyone who thinks Swans is one of the top 5 most overrated of the 2010s is wrong. The Seer and To Be Kind got tons of praise from critics but your average Joe has never ever heard of Swans. I also think most of the praise Swans receive is justified since they're one of the few modern rock bands who aren't cheaply copying 60s-80s rock. Tame Impala are overrated, Swans aren't.

I bet you browse kanyetothe.
