Posted August 1, 201014 yr http://i780.photobucket.com/albums/yy90/Matthew_Bridgehouse/MaleArtistBanner.jpg Now we've crowned Lady GaGa, the top female artist, the time has come to decide her male equivalent, please leave a list of your 30 nominated men in a post and I'll get back with the Top 100, which, shall then decide the victor! All genres are welcome, dead or alive, mega-famous or rarely known, basically the man who does it for you! RULES 1) Leave a list of 30 nominated men, in order of your preference, from 1 (30 points) to 30 (1 point). If you can't think of 30, post less :-) 2) All male singers/rappers are welcome, whether they be solo, part of a duo, or a performer in a group. 3) The singer (or band if you prefer) will have had a charting single/album in the UK Top 100, Irish Top 100 or American Billboard Chart. 4) Each member can vote once, and only vote for a performer once. 5) No joint positions, and try to give the artist's recording name, although if your voting for Sean "Daddy-Diddy" Combs, this may prove to be difficult. 6) Voting closes at midnight on the 14th August, so plenty of time! 7) Private message votes are acceptable, also please contact me with any questions you may have. :D So let's be having them votes then. Who do you want: Eminem, Enrique, Lennon, Sinatra, Presley, Gaye...Bieber. The possibilites are endless and quite frankly scary. GET VOTING! :party2: Edited August 13, 201014 yr by Leonardo2505
August 1, 201014 yr This is actually supremely difficult to nominate. I've personally decided to go with solo artists except in the case of supremely important and gifted lead singers as lets face it as solid a lead singer as, for example, Brandon Flowers or Jarvis Cocker are they are nothing next to giants of music like Kurt Cobain or Jimi Hendrix are they?
August 1, 201014 yr I think it'll be really interesting to see where this one goes as it's not quite as predictable as the female one. I'm starting on my list now!

August 1, 201014 yr Now this will be interesting, my imidiate guess for a winner would be someone like Ne-Yo or DeRulo but it'll probably be rather unpredictable. I shall wait a while before posting my nominations. I've compiled a list of all the major male artists on my I-Tunes but frankly im embarassed to post it, so I shall have to take inspiration from some of the other lists

August 1, 201014 yr Author Will anyone be posting a link in the alternative/rock forums as well in order to get a broader cross section of votes?? I'm not quite sure how to do that, but if somebody, would like to as long as I know where it is to count votes.
August 1, 201014 yr Author I'm unsure about David Guetta, Tiesto etc... does DJ's are allowed? DJs are allowed as it's a male musical artist slamdown :D
August 1, 201014 yr This was actually really difficult. When I think of male acts, I actually tend to think of bands more, and I'm not sure whether there's much value in voting for the lead singers of Feeder or Keane. OH WELL BEST 01. Seal 02. Bryan Adams 03. Nick Bracegirdle (Chicane) 04. Andy Bell (Erasure) 05. Moby 06. Santana 07. Chris Martin - yes I know he is insufferable as a person but... 08. Sting - ditto 09. William Orbit 10. David Gray - loses points for the annoying bobbing head 11. Freddie Mercury 12. Kele Okereke (Bloc Party) 13. Bono 14. Mick Hucknall 15. Eminem 16. Darren Hayes 17. Timbaland 18. Elton John 19. Paul van Dyk 20. 2Pac 21. Michael Stipe (REM) 22. Ne-Yo 23. Will Young 24. Gary Barlow 25. Michael Jackson 26. Phil Collins 27. Brandon Flowers 28. Example 29. Plan B 30. Lemar
