Who is on your Mount Rushmore of music?

[Piff Perkins]

Miles Davis
Prince
Bjork
Pharoah Sanders

 

[Dont@Me]

I wouldn't be able to do it unless it was genre specific

same. I'd have way too many. I'd at the very least need one from every following genre:

Classical (need at least 2-3 for this)
Hip Hop (i'd need at least 2-3 for this)
Electronic Trap
Dubstep
Bass House
House
Future Bass
R&B
Soul
Pop

And this is minimum. Most people only listen to a very limited span of music, so their rushmore would look very genre specific. Mine would span across so many.

where does SADE rank guys?

or better yet would you be mad if i put her number 4

 

[IIVI]

but my nikka you gon bypass stevie, james,prince etc for fukking future and brandy

I'ma be honest breh, I've listened to a lot more Future than those cats the last decade. Just being real.

Maybe because I was making beats heavy during this span so I was around this music a lot, I don't know.
I personally don't think it's crazy that cats have rappers through their top four if that's who they like.

It may seem funny, but everyone on that list has had a 10+ year run putting out hits and memorable music.

MJ and Madonna speak for themselves.
Future been running nearly the last 15 years.
Brandy, probably funny but she's still top 10 to me which is why I said spots 3 and 4 get swapped out. Brandy though did objectively influence many singers due to her 90's discography. I can very well next week be in a 2Pac, Outkast, Janet or Mariah Carey vibe. There are just too many special artists.

My Rushmore is set in stone. You can't change it week to week.

Who you got?

My mountain still under construction


Stevie and Marley got the first 2 spots for sure. The rest up for grabs between Prince Donny Hathaway Marvin MJ. And I feel like I need a woman up there too. Like Whitney Mahalia or Aretha

Lotta good music to delve into. I need time

The only person who has a solidified position on mt Olympus without exception is Michael jackson. His music trajectory is great beyond comprehension

Marley is not fukking with Prince

That's low key why I ca't name a top 4. Too much talent out there.

Phil Tan is one of the best mixers of all-time (was there day 1 at So So Def basically), he did Diamonds for Rihanna as well s a whole bunch of other classic and well-known/timeless songs. I actually think he's Rihanna's main mixer.

When someone asked him about his mixing process and about Diamonds he said he'd honestly mix that song differently today and would probably mix it differently from that next week. Diamonds is one of Rihanna's biggest songs to date and for him to say that really was dope to hear. That's how I kind of view this. Some folks can be definitive, I really can't be about this. I pick the top 2 who'd I basically always mention in these types of lists and know the others will basically be who I'm feeling and who'd probably be different if you ask me next month.
