Lady GaGa will for sure be a legend for the new girls in 20 years.
Beyonce is already a legend
Anyway, my list (in no order)
1. Beyonce
2. Lady GaGa
3. Britney Spears
4. Jay-Z
5. Kanye West
6. Usher
7. R. Kelly
8. Alicia Keys
9. Mariah Carey (unless she already is a legend)
10. Rihanna
Mariah is already a music legend. You can't sell that many records, influence that many singers, innovate singing as we know it, and not be a legend
Yeah, I considered listing them. They're really the only widely respected and commercially successful ROCK band out right now. They could be looked at in the future as the last of a dying breed.
Yeah that's why I feel they are most deserving however I think the Black Keys are getting huge now and will take the Foos place in radio if they ever stop having mainstream success I've already heard Lonely Boy and Tighten Up a bunch on Sirius Hits One
Ne-Yo needs to return to chart topping, even if its just the R&B charts...he has no pull anymore
Xtina has had zero longevity...I think Wayne is questionable because his content is getting worse and worse...Drake should take his place.
Taylor Swift & Carrie Underwood will be country legends. Kelly Clarkson will probably have longevity enough to be considered a legend, American Idol plays a big part in her career.
