Drake has been huge the past decade. He is massively successful in the charts and streaming world, I think even better than Taylor in some ways. 

I think he's overrated.... like the male Beyoncé. There's no way you can't say he's had more impact than JB in terms of music/pop culture. I only know like 2 songs from him.

Drake is massive in the straight cis world. I think Drake is actually more influential than Justin Bieber. Drake singing rap songs in his introspective way about things like romance, for example, set off a wave of new rappers in the early 2010s that were more complex with the topics they covered and gave more creativity to the field. I am not a fan of either but even Beyonce, for example, has this in her. She is hugely influential in ways that are not always so direct to the average person.

There is no way they wouldn't mention her at all. At the MINIMUM they would at least include her in the honourable mentions.

Y'all need to stop being so negative 😆

I pray for Top3 but will be thankful with Top5

I am not negative, everything is not a given. Trying to be realistic and prepare for a scenario where she might not be mentioned is valid.

I think Britney/Kanye will be 7/6 or vice versa.

Britney is hurt be the fact her biggest era came in the 90s. And Kanye is hurt by his complete fall from grace. 

But who knows?

Drake’s force is all about numbers though, Justin Bieber has/had an actual impact in the real world

Justin Bieber had his Beatles/Elvis/Michael Jackson obsession Moment but Drake has numbers for a reason. Lots of people like his music, social media talks about him all the time. He Is the MacDonalds of hip hop, the guy Is what Any random dude finds to be cool, he's really mainstream...

The Weeknd is bigger, no? Especially after Kendrick lowkey decimated Drake's image

There's also Bruno and Ed Sheeran.

But yeah, Drake's definitely up there. Idk about being on this specific list but he's huge.

[Anduin 999]

My prediction :

1. Beyonce ( girl has been relevant from 2000 to 2024)

2. Taylor Swift ( she is the music the industry these past few years) 

3. Gaga ( huge peak and consistency) 

4. Drake 😒

5. Britney (huge peak)

6. Rihanna (bop after bop) 

7. Kanye 🤢
