The Prodigy are awesome and badass

Stickied, but I would like to remind you of the "dropping name/video and gtfo" rule.
If you vote, don't just say the name of the artist, but add a few words about why you voted for him/her.

And Lana Del Rey deserves it more IMO, even though The Prodigy made a few jam-worthy songs. Both have creative concepts though.

Oh yeah, it better be back!

 

And although almost all of their songs bore me and Ne-Yo has legit vocals, I'm voting for Coldplay.

There is no competition. Ne-Yo sings about f***ing girls, parties and drinking, just like any other conventional and generic pop singer. To call him a musician is in my mind a catastrophic error. Coldplay however sings about life as a whole. They follow no conventional pattern in their songs, they play their instruments better than anyone else out there right now and their songs are brilliant (ALL IN MY OPINION).

 

Coldplay all the way.

[spoiler=My Opinion]

Imogen Heap she's one of my favorite female singers

While Rammstein are one of my favorite Industrial Metal bands...

My love for Rammstein is more than my love for Imogen Heap though[/spoiler]

[spoiler=My Opinion]

Rihanna doesn't even have a handful of a songs

That I find bearable that she's done

While pop music sounds more catchier with non-english vocals

So yeah I'd like to say: Kara > Rihanna[/spoiler]

Why did I know that "I am the Best" would come up first...

That song isn't the best, it's the worst clusterfuck they've done so far imo.D:

But 2NE1 for me because they deliver live.

Not the greatest singers, but their strength are the performances (which is quite commendable in K-Pop where most people do the pretty-synchronized-robot stuff).

Their lives slay bitches.

 

Death Grips on the other hand is going for a pretty interesting genre mix, but their songs bore me.

I love Deftones, but I'd say Radiohead

They are much more skilled and experimental than Deftones
