Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
Beginning in the winter of 2008 in Seattle, Washington, MC Macklemore and producer Ryan Lewis linked up to create their debut EP entitled “VS.” Based off an idea to sample relevant, contemporary bands, the EP exposes Hip-Hop fans to genres they may be less familiar with. “VS.” re-imagines the sounds of Beirut, The Killers, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Arcade Fire and many more. The EP will be a completely donation-based release dropping at the end of November. “Otherside” (the first leak from the project) mashes big drums and orchestral pieces over Anthony Kiedis’ classic song about battling with heroin addiction. Macklemore now tells the story of Hip-Hop’s experience with drugs and a first person narrative about his own struggles with drug addiction and rehabilitation.
Strokes have a very good first album, their rest of their stuff is okay or decent.
Dixie Chicks are good.
Bon Jovi is a joke.
Mackelmore is alright i guess
Bon Jovi is very low as well.. but i kinda saw it coming as i forsee some modern alt rock band taking the crown so the old rock bands wouldnt place too high..
17 of my artists havent placed yet.. i honestly expected around 10 of them Deffinitely making the list!!
used to be such a fan when I was little and hadn't discovered my own taste in music yet and just listened to what my mom listened to
it was a really big surprise! (I voted for them too 
)
