I don't think people realize that there's always someone to take your spot. No one stays on top forever. Rihanna is almost 30 and I'm pretty sure there will be someone younger to take her spot. Her fans are delusional if they think she will be around 10 years from now. There's always someone waiting to take your spot
I don't like all of Rihanna's music but I think she has a shot at becoming legendary. She has the same if not more popularity than Britney Spears had when she first came out. Rihanna has sold out concerts around the world, millions of album sales in which every one has been platinum. She stays on the scene.
I consider Beyonce legendary. Right now, Rihanna is more popluar than Beyonce. If you look at her Billboard album sales, iTune sales, gross in concerts etc. you will find that she beats MOST females in her league in pop music in the past 3-5 years. Adele is the only one that has her beat but not many people knew Adele when her album 19 came out and Rihanna has been around way longer than the 19 album. The only pop star who is neck and neck with Rihanna right now is Katy Perry who is her BFF.
Legendary is not based on opinion but the artist career, awards and fan base. Some people don't consider Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston legendary but those are opinions not based on the huge success on their career.
I don't consider Britney Spears a legend but based on her popularity and the MTV award she received for being a legend in the music industry, my opinion is just that.
Britney spears was the first to bring in the bubble-gum pop era her and Christina Aguilera brought in that genre back in the Mid-late 90's early 00's same with the resurgence of boy bands killing off the grunge era of music which with the end of grunge bands/artists being mainstream and the end of hip-hip/Rap's Golden era.
I guess growing up in the NWA. Ice cube Nirvana, AIC and 80's early 90's Rap/Grunge/Rock era has made me jaded and old and not a big fan of modern artists since it is generational thing where their is a disconnect between my generation and the millennial generation.
But I tend to find the Mid-late 90's killed off artists that actually had talent that were not premade in a studio to be mainstream and just produce top-40 hits that follow the rest of the popular music trends of the time but back then original artists that wrote and performed their own material could still get airplay.
she's breaking a lot of music records with so many no. 1s. do you think she will have longetivity in the music industry or fade away?
She'll be gone in another 5 years
