The fact that Justin Bieber didn't make this list..

I'm just gonna say it: Nickelback doesn't deserve the hate

Man, Coldplay has no place in a list with these other entries.

Where are R Kelly and Gary Glitter?

I’m bipolar and have borderline personality disorder and still don’t do half the shit Kanye and Chris did

You put Coldplay and Nickelback with all this othere extreme artists with trashy behavior??? Seriously?

Chris Brown, R Kelly, Ian Watkins, Courtney Love, 69, Kanye West, Ice Spice, Sexyy Red, and Drake

Creed should be on the list instead of Coldplay. Atleast Coldplay's earlier material was geniuinely enjoyable, while Creed was always this amalgamation of every cliche of post-grunge music. Oh, and R.Kelly should be here too. He makes Chris Brown look like a boy scout.

Limp Bizkit does not deserve to be on this list. It's not 2006 anymore.

Where’s Justin Bieber? His music is a torture device.

It’s sad cause nickleback has so much good music. It’s really crazy

If/when this list gets a Top 20 reboot, I fully expect Taylor Swift to be on it.

Kanye West & Chris Brown. Don't think I've seen 2 musical artists go from Famous to Infamous as fast as they did.

I feel like Taylor Swift should be here.

Jlo didn’t make the list? She’s the most hated for 2024!!!

Names that come to mind are Azelia banks, cardi b and ye

did you just include coldplay (chris martin) for a pretentious persona over a serial RAPIST in R Kelly?????? I would sue for defamation if I was chris lmao that was foul

When kanye said " George bush dont care about black people" mike Myers wanted to just walk off camera lol

If Jlo is not on this list, then there is supposed to be another list

I never liked Kayne West. I’ve lost my respect for him since the early 2020s.

Kiss, they are often criticized for their image and because of Gene Simmons

Anyone surprised that 10:32 is number one? His music hasn't improved and his public antics overshadowed his good music (in the past).

I’ve never understood the hatred & negativity that Nickelback gets, it makes No sense to me

I like Limp bizkit. It's not high-art, but it's entertaining.

One thing I learned within the past years is that sometimes bad people make good music. Also, people you used to look up to can turn out to be really terrible.

No way, Nickleback doesn't belong on this list. He's an amazing performer

Nobody likes a snitch

I am so disappointed in Chris Brown due to domestic violence. 😠

Should have included R Kelly, Kevin Federline, Ted Nugent, Marilyn Manson and Taylor Swift.

*Who stole mumber 1 from Taylor swift*

Hey hey hey, Nickelback isn't all that bad! I happen to LOVE them! Any band that goes against the mainstream is a win for me!

How do some of these artists still have a record contract? 🤔 🎉

Could probably have added folks like Morrissey, Axl Rose, Motley Crue & Creed on this list and that's before we get onto the scumbags like Gary Glitter, Ian Watkins, R Kelly & such!

Tattoo that says a wide open guy or gal isnt something to be proud about

Diddy, Sam Smith, Bieber, Gaga, every new rapper since Dmx...

How is JLo not on this list?

Every autotune german "rapper" is worse

Note: I made this comment before seeing #1. I'm betting all of my money on Kanye. Edit: I KNEW IT!!!!!!

Wtf is Coldplay doin here?

Did anyone else think a lot of these "highly acclaimed" or "groundbreaking" artists all sounded generic as feck?

Kid rock is a has-been..

Okay, I'd genuinely like to know which Nickelback video was filmed in Syracuse, New York

Love the background music

Amazing list

Drake absolutely should be here. And kid rock should be #1

WHAT DO YOU MEAN COLDPLAY???!!!

How they gonna put Nicki on here but not Cardi B

Nickelback is way too undeserving of hate compared to the rest of the artists on this list.

I've been following Watchmojo for a long time and I know y'all have done this list before, lol.

Coldplay is the shit

Dont know why ppl hate on Nickleback; they're not a bad band. "Oh, their songs all sound the same" Really? Cause AC/DC made a career off of that

Bipolar is not an excuse to act like a fool.

At least put Ian Watkins in there. Or Marilyn Manson.

What's wrong with Nickelback? 🤷‍♂️

Its like they tossed in 2 acts that put out actual music to just change things up amongst all the rap. The only people I know that dont like Coldplay and Nickleback hate on them because its popular. Imagine Dragons and Oasis are much more hated than NB and CP and their music is so much worse it's not even debatable.

Jordin Sparks Is My Least Favorite Musical Artist since 2007 and I never looked back

The really sad thing is that Chris Brown still has a legion of female fans.

The video intro perfectly sums up these musicians

For a brief moment, I thought they were saying that Coldplay didn't record any new music after 2025, and I had to question what year it was.

where are Lizzo, Cardi B and Taylor Swift?

I vote for Takeshi 69 and Niki Minaj They both come across as so obnoxious in interviews

Nickel back and Coldplay have no right being on here. Replace em with Justin Bieber and (yes I’m serious) Taylor Swift

Even listening to their Nickelback argument, I still don’t get all the hate they get. Maybe I just don’t understand music

Kid Rock definitely deserves to be on this list.

Soulja boy is the first rapper to not be on this list

I agree w everyone being on the list, but many were left out.

Im about to comment Jennifer Lopez but remembered it’s a list for singers. 😂

I will defend Vanilla Ice to the end. You can 100% tell the difference between the sound of Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure. After the first 3 notes, you can tell. Plus Ice Ice Baby is my favorite song ever!!!! @VanillaIce #IceIceBaby4Life

JLo and Diddy

The fact that there's 3 entries above Nickelback is actually a sign that the hate is waning.

All the autotune no talent rappers.

2:49 wtf is that thing?

I didn't realize people hated Limp Bizket

"Blow ninja, Blow ninja, Blow" 😂

Limp Bizkit shouldn’t be on this list let alone above 6ix9ine

WTF, the top five aren’t even that bad! I love Nickelback, they don’t deserve the hate, I say Green Day that ruined rock and roll! My top five that I hate with a passion, would be Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish, Cardi B, Green Day!

Coldplay's use of that particular piano arpeggio in "Clocks" forever ruined what used to be a standard one for keyboardists!

I like nickelback. They have some good songs. Not one of my favs but they’re a decent band. Were great live. Not sure why everyone hates them.

Red Hot Chili Peppers Mammoth WVH

Time stamps?

I know Coldplay, Iggy Azalea, Limp Bizkit, Vanilla Ice, Nickelback and Kanye West.

Wait who hates Coldplay

Where the hell was R Kelly?

My Top 10 List Would Include: Vanilla Ice Skrillex Kevin Federline Every single Hair/Glam Metal band (Especially Poison & Bon Jovi) Limp Bizkit Kanye West Nicki Minaj Fall Out Boy Milli Vanilli Nickelback

Why is Coldplay here! They are great!!!

Ok, you mentioned it, so I have to make something clear. Having Bipolar Disorder sucks and, yes, it can cause you to act like you have different personalities. It isn't that you actually have MPD (Multi-personality disorder), but the quick and severe changes in mood, especially when not properly controlled, can make a person with BPD to act like different people, depending on the situation. I have BPD and I can be the nicest person you know. BUT, when stress, anger, etc. gets thrown into the mix, I can become extremely violent or I can become pathetically depressed, to a point of doing nothing but crying, ALL DAY which usually leads to an angry manic outburst. People like Chris Brown shouldn't be put into a category of people who are just plain assholes. I DO NOT think that he should be able to use his disorder as an excuse, but when it comes to making lists, like this video, of people who are disliked, certain people who have psychological problems should NOT be listed with people who are just self indulgent and self-entitled because of their huge ego and large bank account. People who have BPD have problems controlling their moods and can become much more easily angered due to the daily frustration of life. And more often than not, we are or can be very sensitive to what others say and do, so we sometimes make mistakes that others may not. I'm not trying to defend a man that beat a woman, but I did want to touch on the fact that his actions may have been very affected by his inability to control his emotions, so it is a bit unfair to put him in this list, even though I'm not really a huge fan!!!😜🤣👍🏼 There is no excuse for violence, especially towards a woman but before lumping someone into a list of bad people, please take into consideration, the background and mental health of the individual, as this can play a very important role as to how the person behaves. Also being properly medicated is a must because not being medicated can cause people to do things that would be attributed to drug use or abuse. I have been living with BPD, among a few other diagnoses for many years and try to stick to my medication very strictly. BPD is NO FUN but if properly taken care of, you can have a fairly normal life. Thank you for reading and please be kind because you never really know what's causing someone to act a certain way. Many times, we're smiling on the outside but dying on the inside. We're very good at hiding what we're really feeling, so please be aware and be kind, no matter what the person is like. If it's someone who cannot grab reality, then just allow them to vent and listen. Sometimes we just need someone to listen, and I believe that is everyone, not just those with mental issues. Thank you for reading this!!! If you did please leave a like, so I know that some care. Have a great day and again, thank you for reading this. I hope that it can help to give people an idea of how easy it would be to make the world just a bit better. Just love without judgement. It's very difficult at times, but works out for the best, most of the time. God Bless and thank you again.

Iggy Azalea: Is that why you're so high and mighty, Lorde? Because you're jealous of this booty?! Lorde: Iggs, I really don't care to go through this again with you.

At the start it says aside from illegal things that derailed them. A multitude of them are just that. I am surprised Die Antwood is not on here. Maybe not popular enough. I dont listent o Kanye but that clip of the hook in the song 'run away while you can' sounded flat /anemic and like he was half out of it... holy crap.

Do more of these 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Well, at least Nickelback is not on # 1, like the last video.

Do you like fish sticks?

Stitches could also be on this list

Here's a controversial opinion. Nickelback's music isn't is as bad as what people make it out to be

You’d put 6ix9ine above Nickleback? Are you kidding me!

They only dislike nicki cause she is one of the best and she not afraid to speak up for herself

If Kid Rock made this list,then where’s Ted Nugent????

Def sensed some saltiness on WM’d part during the Kid Rock portion. Lmao hmmm 🤔

Ever since the Rihanna incident, Chris definitely changed from this cute heartthrob to this lack of remorse douchebag. I can like some of his songs but idk man. I just pray for his daughters, that’s all.

I'm shocked that Justin Bieber isn't on this list. Granted, public opinion of him has improved a bit since he has matured as both an artist and as a person. But ten years ago, Bieber would have absolutely been a shoo-in for this list.
