Overrated artist(s).

[Breine]

Which artist(s) (Singers, bands, actors, directors etc.) do you think is/are overrated?

[Kirobaito]

John Wayne (Proto had that thread awhile ago), and nearly every single pop and/or rap artist of today.

[Lindy]

nearly every single pop and/or rap artist of today.

Or, more specifically. Eminem and D-12. Pure, unadulterated pony.

Id agree there, i hate boybands, the same crappy softy music from a four-six membered male band that look like they havnt hit pubety really annoys me, and its always the same sappy i cant live without u, ur the love of my life crap when u know really there only in a boy band to get laid!

..... sorry, theirs just too many of them and some must be destroyed, i can stand a couple of em but there just too many!

Avril Lavigne, Justin Timberlake, Hilary Duff (I cannot stress enough that she lacks good lyrics and more importantly: vocal talent) , 50 Cent, Chingy and any other hip-hop guys who like to talk about girl's asses and getting them into their hotel.

Oh yeah, and Good Charlotte and Simple Plan are annoying as hell and have no talent except the talent of wearing silly spiked bracelets and convincing millions of young teens to do the same.

[Dreamtiger42]

I agree with all, except for good charlotte, i like them Im not into R&B its just...... eurgh! i dont see the music in it its just mainly done on computers isnt it? im more into rock music,somtimes german rock music! its helping me to learn the language

Well, besides the obvious, pop and semi pop stars out there, I think Sheryl Crow is grossly overrated, now anyway. Her music used to say something a little more than "I want to relive my youth! I want to relive my youth!"

Sorry, I know I'll be butchered for this, but Evanesence. I'll agree that their music is decent, but they aren't crossing any barriers or over stepping boundaries. They're not really innovators in any way.

James Cameron has always been overrated.

Most actors and actresses I can think of are overrated.

Norah Jones (spelling?) omg my art teacher pops in her CD every day during art class.....ugh...

There are my emotions whenever i hear her songs, in handy smily form.
:shoot: :frust: :-\ :x_x: :grr: :sweatdrop :sad:

i love evanescence, but most of my friends dont so it dont really bother me. they are my favourate band in the world though.

i would say good charlotte, slipknot, deftones, red hot chilli pepers, offspring, iron maiden, motorhead...god theres lots.

Hillary Duff- shes an actor who THINKS she can sing.
Dave Matthews Band- they just generally blow
N Sync- Same as above
Little John- he had one good song
The guy who sings Ice Ice baby Ice- okay I can say Ice like 300 times, but do I get a record? NO

[TasteyPies]

Vincent you mean.....that Vanila ice guy?

[Mr. Graves]

Anything popular. The exception is Tool/A Perfect Circle. They're pretty good.

[Germ Hamee]

I would agree that most pop/rap stars are over-rated, but oddly most of the people I run into agree that such musicians suck horribly. So I guess I can't really say that I have really noticed any over-rating of them...

But I think Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Metallica are horribly, horribly, horribly over-rated.

[Del Murder]

Picasso.

[Felldoh]

I completely agree with Reyn. All my friends worship those two bands like their gods, but I really don't like them.
