Britney Spears as #2 or #3 makes SO MUCH more sense than Billboard's actual ranking of #6. Thank you for putting respect on her name as THE Pop Star of our generation.
She can't sing, she can't right songs, she hasn't released any albums in years, she a good performer ill give her that...why should she be included in the top? Please explain
Olivia's first album is the most streamed female album in history, has set multiple records for sales, streaming and radio. She exploded onto the scene in a more successful way than Ariana. Both are great but you can't deny Olivia's success.
Ariana in honorable? Oh my God… Problem, Break Free, One Last Time, God Is A Woman, No Tears Left To Cry, 7 Rings, Thank U Next… All of that was a HUGE hit
I definitely see how people love taylor, but Beyonce IS number one to me. There has never been a shift in my lifetime in pop like that Self-Titled drop. She changed the DAY OF THE WEEK music was released. And she has never given me relatable, but she isn't trying to. She's the popstar, because no popstar in the past 20 years has refused to give her her flowers
Some of y'all are mad in the comments. The title says "Our List" This means theirs, not yours. If y'all are so mad, then make your own list and video. We love this list. Go, bbs.
I'm equally ambivalent towards men in pop music lol, but for my top 10, I would probably swap out Billie and Olivia for Justin Bieber if we want to talk about not only songs, but the sheer chokehold he had on the music industry between 2009 and maybe 2016-2017 is unmatched. Even the yummyfication of Bieber produced hits.
y’all don’t talk about consistency though 😭 taylor went from country to having a country pop album to full pop and experimenting with alternative music. the connection with fans, playing a stadium with her second album, winning aoty with her second album. pulling out her music from spotify to fight for artist rights and re recording her albums. the reputation comeback and branding it with snakes. the drama of it all. i love gaga but if you’re thinking about it, gaga made so much impact especially with her first albums. billboard takes consider the consistency of fame and music release as well. taylor has 11 albums and it’s hard and rare for an artist to keep that relevancy and she did, like, that’s superstar shit right there 😭
i’ll give you fashion impact, certainly, but there’s no way you can listen to Picture to Burn, I Knew You Were Trouble, Exile, Midnight Rain, and The Black Dog and claim Taylor doesn’t have the versatility. There’s no way you can see The Eras Tour (even from outside the stadiums) and claim she doesn’t have the star quality, and there’s no way you can remember Snake Gate (#TaylorSwiftIsOverParty) and claim she doesn’t have the pop culture hold, let’s be real here. Love her or hate her, Taylor has always made an impact on the people.
omg when steele started and said "she only has two albums" the fear in me thinking he was gonna say dua lipa lmaoo I think she actually has three albums anyway and I do like dua but wow that scared me haha
Olivia Rodrigo has only been relevant in the 2020s and she gets the top 10 spot. We don’t know what she will be like in the next 10 years. I feel like you need to be at least relevant for more than 10 years to be in the top 10.
they are not that big, a huge hit would be something like blank space, crazy in love, rolling in the deep, poker face, we found love etc those are massive hits
@@TheMolabola have u forgotten how big of a hit thank u next was?? And problem is the most illegally downloaded song with over 15 million downloads. Whatever go off.
@TheMolabola and the teenage dream singles alone can face off with the singles you just named in terms of success, yet they're by 1 artist. So how is Katy Perry not here and Olivia Rodrigo is lol
I feel like Dua Lipa should have been on here on the low end or an honorable mention. She literally revitalized pop in 2019 and has dominated ever since.
She only was icon status during future nostalgia, and 1 era isn't enough. Plus future nostalgia was filled with samples from start to finish. Not very original. She's definitely modeled after Katy Perry by her management. Speaking of Katy Perry, she should have been on the list.
Not gonna put Madonna coz she's the mother of all! 1. Beyonce 2. Lady gaga 3. Britney Spears 4. Taylor swift 4. Rihanna 5. Katy perry 6. Bruno Mars 7. Justine Bieber 8. Ariana Grande 9. Kendrick Lamar 10. Adele
Well 21st century Mariah was way out of her zone in music quality, vocal quality and relevance. She even barely cracked Palmer's top 10 due to bias as she's his favorite singer of all time.
Mine would be... *drumroll please* 10. Lana Del Rey 9. Miley Cyrus 8. Justin Bieber 7. Ariana Grande 6. Nicki Minaj (yes this one counts!) 5. Christina Aguilera 4. Rihanna 3. Beyonce 2. Britney Spears 1. Lady Gaga
Ok sorry but objectively, artistically, and all the possibles ly.. There's just no way you can put Taylor above Britney Spears. People seems to forget but if u grew up in the same world of Britney Spears and the impact that woman made in pop history. Then you know..
This is 21st century. Madonna disappeared off the face of the earth and is only known for botched plastic surgeries and cringe in the 21st century. She's definitely the number 1 of the 80s though.
Yeah im so glad you both don't work for Billboard cause clearly you guys list are delusional! Liv before Ariana? Billie before Ariana? delusional! Alicia Keys? how is she a pop star?
Hot take but "Beyonce" the brand is bigger than the musician. She's what people care about, not necessarily the music. She's more of a celebrity than anything. Which sucks since her music is actually great and the only person that is on her level of talent on this list is gaga yet still Beyonce is a celeb more than an artist.
You do realize the 21 century started in 2000 right 🤦♀️.. Britney ran the 2000s.. oops I did it again, Britney, in the zone, blackout, circus, femme fatale, Britney is the Beyoncé and Taylor Swift of the 2000s
Britney Spears as #2 or #3 makes SO MUCH more sense than Billboard's actual ranking of #6. Thank you for putting respect on her name as THE Pop Star of our generation.
Britney should be No. 1 IMO. She’s just ICONIC.
She can't sing, she can't right songs, she hasn't released any albums in years, she a good performer ill give her that...why should she be included in the top? Please explain
I'm sorry but Ariana as honorable mention right into OLIVIA as #10?? I love my good sis Liv but the disrespect😭
right
Olivia's first album is the most streamed female album in history, has set multiple records for sales, streaming and radio. She exploded onto the scene in a more successful way than Ariana. Both are great but you can't deny Olivia's success.
@@soundsoffiction2456you mean she’s a few hit wonder. She had a couple big songs and now what? Crickets. Compare their networths
@@Ja93977 crickets? the guts tour already grossed more than ariana's highest grossing tour PLS
Luv Ari but Olivia raw emotion is just to good
Ariana in honorable? Oh my God…
Problem, Break Free, One Last Time, God Is A Woman, No Tears Left To Cry, 7 Rings, Thank U Next… All of that was a HUGE hit
Ariana grande as an HONORABLE MENTION but olivia at 10? this is a joke
I definitely see how people love taylor, but Beyonce IS number one to me. There has never been a shift in my lifetime in pop like that Self-Titled drop.

Olivia Rodrigo at 10 and Ariana as a honorable mention is so fucking wrong....
I audibly gasped and then clicked off cuz wth
Olivia on here, but no sign of Ariana or Katy is a fucking CRIME
@@bratzscene3131 Yeah it made no sense.
They already gave their justification idk what you're on
I expected better from you two than adding Ariana Grande as just a mere honourable mention. Are you for real now?
Some of y'all are mad in the comments. The title says "Our List"
This means theirs, not yours.
If y'all are so mad, then make your own list and video.
We love this list. Go, bbs.
who is "we" 💀 Olivia being on that list and NOT Ariana is BS, point blank
@@trini2DBone134they are Mariah fans. And especially the bald one is very weird about giving Ariana her credit

@@jeremiahmcfarland9734 boooooooooooo! Taylor swift should be 1st
@ girl bye, don’t care. She was named number one HAHAHA. Talent won.

No mention of KATY? That woman broke records and was the most powerful women of pop and radio for years. HIT after HIT.
but shes not in top 10
@suangoulaltonxing680 Katy is ATLEAST honorable mention
Why did I just find out Matt had a cameo in the Netflix series Dahmer. 😂😂 That documentary was horrifying
I haven't watched the video yet but as soon as I saw the title on your guy's video I immediately thought to myself - "Now this is the correct list"

I'd like to see y'all's list for top pop artists per decade. Thanks for the video, Matts!
Ooooooooooo Now Can Y'all Make Top 10 Most Underrated Pop Artist's Of The 21st
Thank you for including Billie, she really is THE most influential female artist of the current generation 💙
um no ❤that's Ariana
@@trini2DBone134 Ariana is pushing 40
@blunoir she just turned 31, bffr
taylor above gaga is blasphemy, i love miss swift but she never had the versatility, the star quality, the fashion impact, the pop culture hold
y’all don’t talk about consistency though 😭 taylor went from country to having a country pop album to full pop and experimenting with alternative music. the connection with fans, playing a stadium with her second album, winning aoty with her second album. pulling out her music from spotify to fight for artist rights and re recording her albums. the reputation comeback and branding it with snakes. the drama of it all. i love gaga but if you’re thinking about it, gaga made so much impact especially with her first albums. billboard takes consider the consistency of fame and music release as well. taylor has 11 albums and it’s hard and rare for an artist to keep that relevancy and she did, like, that’s superstar shit right there 😭

I'm a huge little monster but Gaga has fallen off after Born This Way.
A meat dress does not a pop superstar make sorry to break it to you
Obv Gaga is waaayy more talented but Taylor’s consistency is just insane.
Number one is the correct answer.
omg when steele started and said "she only has two albums" the fear in me thinking he was gonna say dua lipa lmaoo I think she actually has three albums anyway and I do like dua but wow that scared me haha
Olivia Rodrigo has only been relevant in the 2020s and she gets the top 10 spot. We don’t know what she will be like in the next 10 years. I feel like you need to be at least relevant for more than 10 years to be in the top 10.
only honorable mention for ariana? girl
No mention about Miley Cyrus?
Great episode! 💙
1900's caught me so off guard 😭
Waiting for a big hit? Do you know how many number ones Ariana has?
they are not that big, a huge hit would be something like blank space, crazy in love, rolling in the deep, poker face, we found love etc those are massive hits

@@romanarts6645 and after that it is all crickets
@@PrakharMishra-ww8kq all ariana is known for is changing races talk to me when an album of hers gets a fraction of the success of Teenage Dream
Ari and Shakira snubs
I feel like Dua Lipa should have been on here on the low end or an honorable mention. She literally revitalized pop in 2019 and has dominated ever since.
the last album flopped hard with no hits. era ended after the first week.
if ari didnt make it, dua should as hell be left out in the dust 🤭
dua dominated during her future nostalgia only
She only was icon status during future nostalgia, and 1 era isn't enough. Plus future nostalgia was filled with samples from start to finish. Not very original. She's definitely modeled after Katy Perry by her management. Speaking of Katy Perry, she should have been on the list.
Ariana grande no top 10 ? Wtf
Olivia at #10 is just insane…she’s been around for 3 years likeee give her some time!!
Beyonce n1 is the only right answer. Good night
Thank you for putting respect on Kelly Clarkson’s name and voice !!!❤
Y’all better PREACH 🐝🐝🐝🐝🔥🔥🫅 No 1
YES Alicia Keys. Great pick. So underrated these days.
Katy perry should be on the list guys at least top 5 and i prefer miley cyrus/ariana than olivia 🔥
I cried with Miss Britney Spears 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
we need Shakira reactions, since you haven't listened to her much!!! Maybe reacting to big pop stars you don't know much about.
Not gonna put Madonna coz she's the mother of all!

Agree with your top 3!
I keep thinking of others though- very hard to just pick 10
ariana as honorable mention OH THAT'S SPICY 😂

✨️✨️✨️ THERE IS NO ONE BIGGER THAN BEYONCE ✨️✨️✨️
21ST CENTURY POP STARS AND NO XTINA NO AVRIL NOT EVEN HONOURABLE MENTIONS WHATTTTT
Literally Xtina is the VOICE OF A GENERATION! THIS GENERATION! Meaning 2000s onward. She literally influenced music and pop culture so much .
Avril was a one album wonder
Not the Frank erasure re: Amy. Without Frank, there is no Back to Black.
Why is Billie ahead of Adele? And ahead of Ariana who isn't on the list? lol
I love you Matts but not having the princess of pop Miss Ariana Grande on here is a crime 😪
No Christina? Katy Perry?
Lady gaga ❤
Ok! Because Billboard's list was trash.
Vote Blue! Pleeeeease!!!
totally agree with your top 3
1. beyonce
2. britney spears
3. taylor swift
Beyoncé win the number 1 spot ! ❤🎉
Matt Palmer better be on this list
My top 3 is Gaga Beyonce and Britney, but respectable top 3 I guess.
"A MAN MAN???" 🤣🤣
Olivia be in the top 10 this early in her career is truly astonishing ❤❤❤
the way janet jackson should've been on this list had it not been for the superbowl
No Justin Bieber is WILD
Beyoncé #1 is the right choice but we know Billboard is going to get that wrong
Chart-wise, she is not that huge
Here post election 🫠 hope yall are doing okay. Sending love.
all I know is billboard better NOT pick taylor swift over Beyonce.
ARIANA IN HONORABLE???? ARE YOU GUYS WELL???
Ijbol the Ariana disrespect....
Top 5:
Katy
Britney
Taylor
Gaga
Rihanna
You lost me when you said Olivia Rodrigo 💀 that's wild
my top 3 is riri bey and taylor
Im sorry but where is miley cyrus y'all???
agree
No Katy Perry? Interesting..
Ok sorry but objectively, artistically, and all the possibles ly.. There's just no way you can put Taylor above Britney Spears. People seems to forget but if u grew up in the same world of Britney Spears and the impact that woman made in pop history. Then you know..
What about madonna the mother of them all 🤣
maybe on last century’s list
This is 21st century. Madonna disappeared off the face of the earth and is only known for botched plastic surgeries and cringe in the 21st century. She's definitely the number 1 of the 80s though.
@ wait for them to reach madonna age and we will talk about their surgeries as well dont be stupid
I agree with you Beyonce is The Greatest Artist Of this century
Please react to Shakira you wil fall in ❤
Billboard tut number 6...🤬 Rihanna, Madonna and Britney!queens!❤
No Chris Breezy?
You boys have no clue
Yeah im so glad you both don't work for Billboard cause clearly you guys list are delusional! Liv before Ariana? Billie before Ariana? delusional! Alicia Keys? how is she a pop star?
Honestly Matt Palmer's list is much more factual

10. Olivia
