where is bob marley?
Beyoncé queen, Michael Jackson king.
Personally joined 1 Jackson and Presley followed by beetles then ac dc
The comments
99%-Michael Jackson should be number one
1%-why is u2/Eminem above queen
Y'all never heard of Tupac. Like how you have a list without him Damn
This list is pretty much a sausage fest.
No Nirvana? ok…
My favorites are Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, the rolling stones, eminem and The Beatles
Beatles is better than MJ, think, you can say MJ sells more albuns today, but man, look.
Beatles time: 2 billion of people
MJ time: 6 billion of people
Beatles has more good songs, they have more than 50 good songs.
And MJ had not so fans than Beatles in his time.
Replace u2 with bob Dylan or nirvana and place queen higher
Bee Gees, Saturday Night Fever. Defined the pop culture in the late 1970s
if they did this list 50 years from now, Bruno Mars number 1 for sure. I dare you name one modern artist thats on Bruno's level lol nobody can touch him right now
It's surprising that pink Floyd jimmy Hendrix and queen are not on this like and micheal Jackson should have been number 1 and the beetles should have been 2 sorry
I am the biggest best beatle nerd but I think that MJ the king of pop should be number 1 and queen is better then u2 in my opinion
Bob Marley???
RE DO THIS LIST WITH MJ AS NUMBER 1
Bias shit
Michael jackson, beatles then elvis
did you just put Queen at 9!!!losers!!they are legends,#watchmojosucksalways
Wtf kind of list is this. Number 3 & 2 and Elvis is on point but you forgot Louis Prima the gigolo, Cab Calloway greatest entertainer, Frank Sinatra the magic man. Sammy Davis Jr thee candy man all made number 1's in their careers. All legends in the history book
1. Michael Jackson
2. Queen
3. AD/DC
4. Green Day
5. Oasis
1 Michael Jackson
then a long time
nothing . . . . . . . . . . .
Then Number 2
AmazingHw Beatles and Elvis are top 3 when alot of their catalog involves stealing black people s musical and revamping it to mainstream caucasian audiences since there was nothing black s could do about that shit back in the day #purefuckery
And every one knows Mike is #1
Nice list, but I have one question. WHERE'S FRICKING NIRVANA!!!!
Watch mojo have no logic mj is the no1 all day long and how are Metallica and honourable mention and not Nirvana and on the other video Nirvana were higher than Metallica
Putting Eminem ahead of queen and u2 is a crime
bon jovi
*clears throat* Mariah Carey? An honorable mention would seem most appropriate, but y'all just put a clip of her in the video without even dropping a name?
YOU humans need to get that the beatles are THE BEATLES they came before mj they deserve that #1 place. they set those records they won th awaaards i love mj but you need the facts people
Take out Eminem and put Tupac and Biggie in one spot, they go hand in hand, most iconic rappers ever
Bob Dylan not even an honorable mention… huh. Alright, I guess.
