Every new generation comes the new it boy, it boy band. Some want to mature fast but forget their audience are still going through middle school, some are even in kinder garden. The biggest acts of the 90's were: N*Sync, Hanson, Backstreet Boys, Usher and Ricky Martin. Now they've faded and a new generation has rised. It all started again with the now disbanded the Jonas Brothers they decided to take a break, that was their biggest mistake because a new teen sensation was discovered and he ended their career.
Justin Bieber
While searching for videos of a different singer, Scooter Braun clicked on one of Bieber's 2007 videos by accident. Impressed, Braun tracked down the theater Bieber was performing in. Bieber was soon signed to Raymond Braun Media Group. Justin Timberlake was also reportedly in the running to sign Bieber, but lost the bidding war to Usher.
One Direction
In 2010, Zayn, Harry, Liam, Niall, etc. auditioned as solo candidates for the seventh series of the British televised singing competition The X Factor. Cowell said that it "took him 10 minutes to put them together as a group". Styles came up with the name One Direction. They finished in third place but they're the most successful act The X Factor has found.
Austin Mahone
He first started posting videos in June 2010. MV followed by in January 2011, and he began to build an online following. On August 28, 2012, Mahone announced that he had been officially signed to Chase/Universal Republic Records.
5 Seconds of Summer
On 14 February 2013, it was announced that 5 Seconds of Summer would support 1D on their worldwide Take Me Home Tour. It was around this time when the band began to gain popularity and become more well-known. On 21 November 2013, the band announced that they had signed to Capitol Records.
A lot of people have criticized them without even knowing their music. Yes, they do have some pretty lame music (I'm looking at you 11:11) but some songs are great. Now it's time to rank their singles and find out who's truly the best teen act. What you are gonna do is listen to every song from each album (from a NEUTRAL standpoint, no stan cards involved), and rate each song from 1-10 accordingly (the only decimal allowed is .5). DO NOT rig this so your favorite songs win. Give each artist a chance. After you have finished all this, PM your scores to me. DO NOT send me half-completed rates.
You can leave a comment for each/some songs if you want
