So who’s your favourite pop star?

Now there’s a shiny new Lemmy group up and running at @popheads (Mastodon users: follow it if you want more discussion of pop music in your Mastodon feed), it’s time to ask who’s your favourite pop star? Do you have a favourite song or album?

My current faves are:

Alessia Cara: Perhaps the most talented and certainly the most underrated of the current crop of pop stars. She’s fallen out of the limelight the past couple of years, which is a pity, because there’s some excellent songs on her recent albums:

Willow Smith: Done some really great songs recently:

Prince

John Farnham (but only his Whispering Jack/Age of Reason/Chain Reaction '80s to early '90s run)

Janet Jackson, and most of the broader Jackson family. (Jermaine, Rebbie, and TJ in particular have some hidden gems in their discography.)

    I admit I haven’t listened to too much of her less popular stuff. I will check it out when I have time. Thank you.
