Biggest music legend ever

[tbh imo no m8]

Who is the biggest music legen d ever? I am gonna keep this open for a week then i will take the top 10 most said people and put them in a poll for a weeks vote :p

In my eyes it is:

Bob Marley - Complete and utter legend everyone has heard of him too.
Tom Jones - Don't like him but who has not heard of him?

[Sly]

Jimi Hendrix, Bob Marley and Kurt Cobain?

and Elvis Presley :P

[Wayne]

I say Elvis Presley. Everyone knows him, from old people to younger people. I grew up listening to him since my Dad likes him. I still listen to him these days, and have loads of DVDs and videos about him. My music folder has 502 songs of his in it.

[tbh imo no m8]

Omg 502 lmao. But Yea Elvis is a good one he will probs be in :)

[-Atreyu]

Kurt Cobain, Axel Rose even though hes a total jerk now and Tom Delonge!

[Many]

50 Cent

[tbh imo no m8]

Tupac Shakur as well
Notorious B.I.G
Left Eye

[Craig]

50 Cent
Your allowed opinions and what not but why him? Why not some of the Hip Hop 'gods' as such like Snoop,Notorious,Ice T/Cube,Jay Z,Dre,ODB,Tupac. I mean they are the true influences of Hip Hop.

Anyway hmm I would say;
Elvis Presley - As they say he's the King of rock and roll.
Hendrix - Pretty much everyone knows about him, great guitar skills and great musician.
Queen - Fasinating
Beatles - Whole beatle mania.
I'm trying to think of more but fail to do so ;/ I'll post more when my brain connects.

[tbh imo no m8]

And that australian one who did Pet Rescue Rolf Harris :p

[Virgin Mary]

Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Tupac, Spice Girls, Queen and The Beatles are probably the biggest music legends.

[FlyingJesus]

Elvis, Freddie Mercury, MJ, Paul McCartney, Buddy Holly, Hendrix..

Not my favourites by far, but definitely among the most influencial. Then again, artists such as Mozart, Bach, Schubert, etc., they're all extremely talented and influencial.

[asher_]

Michael Jackson.

[RedStratocas]

Elvis. If you don't know his name by the time youre 5, youre probably an idiot.:p And also John Lennon.

[Tash.]

Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie, MJ, Queen, The Doors, Elvis, Meat Loaf, Jon Bon Jovi.. long list of em.

[Axel]

2 Pac
Dre
Biggy

[Foks]

Public Enemy.. I don't care if their a band.
Thats hip-hop at its best.

Elton John, He's like elvis really, who hasn't heard of him.

[asher_]

You can't compare Elvis to Elton John...

[Foks]

I said he is as well known as him.

[foxyfox00]

U2, Motzart, Elvis, Micheal Jackson, Jackson 5, Madonna,
All I Can Think Of

[Sabu]

Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley and James Brown. :)

Elvis: He was know as the "King of Rock and Roll". I don't like him, but who's not heard of him?

Michael: He has amazing songs. We all know he's a bit sick, but you gotta understand deep down he's a decent person.

Bob: Don't really like him, but is very popular in Jamaica. Is probably Jamaicas hero?

James: Spectacular. He's what? 71 or something? He's still looking good, and is still performing :)

[DMB-Hosting]

Elvis, MJ, Curt Cobain, Whitney Houston

Michael Jackson (even if he does like children), Elvis Presley and Axl Rose

All of them are musical geniuses but are/were complete lowlifes.

[Expanding]

The beatles, The Rolling Stones, ABBA to a certain extent, Michael Jackson and Elvis

[Many]

Because hes been around for 5 years, and you dont always have to be a legend if your retired..
Hes got the best lyrics, and has won awards for them, so it's not only me who thinks that, hes what makes hip hop today..
All of his songs are brilliant too..
Hows that?

[Alexxiano]

Elvis, Pink Floyd, MJ, The Eagles and Robbie Williams I suppose.

[Mit]

If you go on well known, it would be Elvis, Michael Jackson and Beatles. Not everyone's heard of Jimmy Hendrix or Queen but those three are the main. Maybe Madonna would be 4th

Also 50 cent is growing in being known every where, I mean he's got fan bases in Bahrain! I don't think he's affected hip hop that much, except taken the Mixtape industry to a new level and take money making to a new level. Whereas someone like Dr Dre has made a huge influence on the industry and even society. He really took gangsta rap to the masses, which may have caused all these wannabe gangstas that carry 3 inch blades around with them.

I mean 50 cent does make some poor tracks sometimes, I mean his mixtape stuff in general is pretty poor. I don't like his new singing style, but i like his gangsta rap songs, e.g. Lifes on the line, heat, many men etc...

[Ashhizzle]

Dr Dre Was Famous, Did he ever sing though???

[Kyle.tk]

U2, Michael jackson, Pink floyd.

If i see anyone say Tom Delonge (like someone did earlier) I will hate them. HES NO LEGEND.

[Jane]

Tom Delonge is God.

[Craig]

Tom Delonge is God.
Not a huge music legend though, like in comparison to some that have been mentioned in this thread.

[QUOTE]Dr Dre Was Famous, Did he ever sing though???[/QUOTE
He rapped so I'd say yeah.

[Many]

No - he rapped. :D

[Dripless]

ROU FROM ENTER SHIKARI!
Flea
Dave Grohl
Dimebag Darrell

and the biggest of all
Kurt Cobain

[@K]

TuPac
Elvis
Beatles
Eminem
Snoop

[RedStratocas]

and the biggest of all
Kurt Cobain

Meh. He had good ideas but mostly luck was his rise. If Soundgarden came out with their album a few weeks earlier, you might be saying that about Chris Cornell and Nirvana might not have been as famous. I could go on with the things that would happen simply because of timing.

Im a huge Nirvana fan, so Im not biased.

[-Paul]

50 Cent

LMAO!!! nosoz

Ermmmmmmmmm, I'd have to say queen (if they count ;o) or the beatels

Yeah but where he got to was of a Legen status amongst the fans. IMO anyways

Thats my point. He wasent the most talented person ever, nor did he even consider himself good, but the fans insisted on it which made him uncomfertable. People thought he invented grunge.
