Bit surprised to hear that he has been active in music for 22 years, when Beyonce was six!, Jay-Z's one of the most respected artists in the hip hop genre who has 3 number ones to his name. His signature song seems to have become Empire State Of Mind.

There is some dismay at Ne-Yo finishing so high, but as you can see from the above he finished higher in the nominations stage, Ne-Yo recently clinched his third number one since 2006, will he still get a Top Ten placing when this poll is conducted again? Maybe not, but I'll think he'll still finish high.

 

 

Favourite Song: Beautiful Monster (from Libra Scale)

Jay-Z is a real hip hop legend- I used to think he was just another rapper but I was wrong :lol:

 

I find Ne-Yo extremely overrated, his songs of late have done nothing for me- and I dont think he should be this high tbh

Brandon Flowers top 8 ! WOW.

 

Don't sound so surprised, he IS aweomse after all :smoke:

 

I like what Jay - Z does with Beyonce.

I wanted out of the top ten, either Enrique or Brandon to win, so look's like I'm team flowers now then :P

Unfortunately for the Brandon-olics Brandon has finished 7th in the poll, Flowers is best known for the bad The Killers, which produced hits such as Somebody Told Me & Human. Their song Mr. Brightside came second in Channel 4's best songs of the 2000s. Flowers has recently had success with his solo debut his song Crossfire going top ten and album Flamingo going number one.

Yes, it's Will Young, originally the shock winner against Gareth Gates in Pop Idol, Young initially went on to be Simon's puppet with his first three number ones being cover versions, however Young went on to cut the apron strings with original songs such as Leave Right Now, which went on to be his fourth chart topper. Unfortunately, he hasn't had that much single success recently, but as shown at his sixth placing, and four top votes he still has a loyal fanbase

Just the top five to come later....

 

Eminem

Freddie Mercury

Justin Timberlake

Enrique - love him, would have liked him top 5!

Jay-Z - awful, how the hell did he end this high?

Ne-Yo - good, but shouldn't be this high

Brandon - I do like some Killers stuff but I think he is about 50 places too high

Will - Love alot of Wills stuff so I think this placing is ok

Bit of a jump in terms of points here, Justin Timberlake began his fame journey as part of boy band *NSync then embarked on a solo career and with a Britney-association, good looks, great voice and the ability to dance it would have been hard for him to fail. His albums have produced so many hits; Like I Love You, Cry Me A River, SexyBack, Senorita & Rock Your Body. In recent times he has taken to be being a much more likable Pitbull, by featuring on everybody else's songs (albeit usually damn good ones). Hopefully he will release another studio album soon.

It's arguably the most favourable rapper, and given what I've read on other forums today about BJ being a mostly anti-rap zone, #4 is a very decent rating, Eminem has been probably the biggest music act of the past decade with hits too many to put down, he currently has the biggest selling song of the year to date under his belt and remains as popular as every

Recieving just one less point than the runner up, Robbie Williams the highest UK born male on the list, not to mention the highest member of Take That on the list. Like Timberlake, Williams' career really took off after he left Take That. Scoring several number ones duetting with Kylie & Nicole Kidman, winning more Brits than any other person. Recent singles have still got top ten and he's almost certainly heading for his seventh number one with about-to-be bandmate Gary Barlow. EDIT: He didn't: Who'd funk?

So it's a staight two-race now between two artists who are no longer with us (very different result to the female list). So Freddie Mercury or Michael Jackson; who's the best, there's only one way to find out...... FIGHT!!!
