Great Artists you Don't Like

[Zaskar 3,918]

Michael Jackson (Don't kill me yet, please! Let me, let me present my case)

So, I never listened to MJ's music, because I didn't like him as a person. I hated him, because I thought that he changed his skin colour by surgeries and bleaching and stuff, and that put me off. I was like what kind of message you're giving to your million of fans by not embracing yourself the way you are. Like you're literally trying to say that "even though I'm filthy rich and super talented, loved and adored by millions, on the top of the world, I still feel that my body-colour is most important and I should lighten it up, because why not!!"... Like I understand that it's your life and your body, so do what the sh** you wanna do, but when you're on such a position, you've some social responsibilities too, and you can't escape away from them... That's why I used to hate him 

 

Recently I saw a YouTube video that explained that he was suffering from vitiligo, a skin diseases in which your skin starts to have patches of light colour and stuff. The video gave all the proof (MJ's dermatologist, his photos, his confession about this disease on Oprah)... It opened my eyes. I saw the light. And I was like "what kind of as****e I was to hate him without even doing the background research"  I'm a sinner  

 

But I still don't/can't listen to his music

Adele, Lana Del Rey and Lorde.

Sure they're talented but I don't like their voices and their music bores me

Also I'm starting to get annoyed by Sia's voice.

Adele. I admire her talent but she doesn't have a single song that sounds different from the others. Plus they all put me to sleep.

No the OP said "talented" not popular 

[DrKindnessKunt1999 6,090]

Demi Lovato: She's very talented, but I'm just not a fan of her sound. 

Eminem: The homophobic lyrics turn me off. He's extremely talented though.

Fifth Harmony: They seem like talented girls, but their music's too Top 20 for me (not to say that Too 20 music's bad, but it's not my taste)

Little Mix: They seem nice, but I've never really gotten into their music. 

Sia: I like her old stuff better. Evennshe's admitted that the pop songs that's she's written for other people are cheesy.

Björk . Girl is suuuuper talented, unique and innovative, but most of her music is just unlistenable to me. Then again, I haven't really delved that deep into her work. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be open to them.

start with her album Post or if u want song Army Of Me

[monsterdino 31,991]

"Beyonce" 

[monsterdino 31,991]

seeing yall replies like "Ed Sheeran, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, Fifth Harmony, Demi Lovato...etc."

 

The question was "GREAT artists" not "Artists"................there's a difference

[Fernster7 7,922]

All those rock bands everyone seems to praise, Michael Jackson, Mariah, Celine, Bjork.

Taylor Swift 

EDIT I hate her as a person but her music is essentially my childhood.

But this is about disliking the music from great artists, not their personas/personalities

[WildAmerican 13,672]

Madonna. I know she's an important figure in the industry, but I never clicked with her music.

I mean it's subjective.

Ed Sheeran's songwriting and instrument skills are pretty great.

Demi is a great vocalist and could out sing most of the more popular pop girls.

Nicki, when she tries is a great rapper and has precise flow.

Spoiler

Katy and Fifth Harmony though
