Cher
In general, musical artists are often given cool nicknames. How awesome must it be to be called the “Goddess of Pop”? Sadly, we will never know because this honor went to Cher instead. Oh well, she surely deserves it. After all, she has changed the world of music as we know it. Not only is she a great musician, but she is also a talented actress. Did you know that she actually has an Oscar to her name?
Patti Smith
We are not going to blame you if you do not know who Patti Smith is. She is not the most mainstream person on the list, after all. Even though she is an indie musician, her music is undeniably good. She was one of the biggest names in the New York City punk scene of the ‘70s. Her debut album is called “Horses” and has inspired a lot of people in the industry. In 2017, she entered the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
