I need to listen to some of these sometime, I think the only ones that I have a decent understanding of their discography are the Beatles, some Bob Dylan, Bowie, Prince, Jimi, Marvin Gaye, Nirvana, Kanye, and Pink Floyd.
I'm glad Adele's singles have been flopping left and right after the album dropped. This means there is no worry about her ever winning AOTY for an album worse than 1989. I'm fine with Hello winning a few awards though.
I respect Lorde for not rushing a second album and capitalize on Pure Heroine's momentum, then again her career isn't hanging in the balance like Whoriana's.
