Michael Jackson - Rock With You (1979).
This was BEFORE Thriller.
Before the glove. Before the moonwalk. Before the world called him King of POP.
Fresh out of the Jackson 5, Just a 21-year-old in a tux, singing live, trying to prove he could stand alone.
He did.

Her song Bleeding Love (2007) wasn't even meant for her.
Jesse McCartney wrote it for himself with Ryan Tedder. His label passed on it. Simon Cowell heard it and took it for Leona.
It became the best selling single of 2007 in UK.
Imagine giving away THAT song.
LEONA LEWIS
She was so shy on X Factor that judges thought she wouldn't make it. Then she opened her mouth.
She went from working at Pizza Hut to becoming the first British female to top the US Billboard Hot 100 in 20 years.
Quiet girl. Loudest voice of her generation.π₯

The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony (1997)
The craziest part? Richard Ashcroft barely got paid for this for 20 YEARS because of that Rolling Stones sample fight.
He wrote one of the greatest songs ever and had to watch others take the credit.
That's actually bittersweet.

Eddie Murphy reveals that at 13, his blind girlfriend, who used to read things with her hands, told him he would become famous. As his career took off, she became ill, and he took care of her for years until she passed away π₯Ίβ€οΈ
Sister Nancy β "Bam Bam" (1982). An immortal dancehall blueprint & 1 of the most sampled reggae anthems in history.Its unmistakable DNA has been flipped, quoted, & recreated across decades by a lot, from Lauryn Hill and Jay-Z to Kanye West & Rihanna.Absolute foundational culture.
Aaliyah didn't just perform, she glided. No forcing it, no overdoing it. Just presence, voice, and choreo in perfect sync. She made it look too easy, that's why people overlook it.

Aaliyah was an actual performer. Not just somebody who could sing and make great records. She knew how to command a stage.
I honestly think her performance ability gets overlooked when people discuss the greatest female R&B artists ever.
Travis Scott plays Phemius, the Bard in Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. (2026) He opens the whole movie Standing on a table telling the story of Odysseus. Nolan said he cast him because Homer's epic was oral poetry, just like rap. Epic π₯

Plies feat. Ne-Yo β "Bust It Baby (Part 2)" (2008). A mid-2000s staple that completely dominated the airwaves, yet people act like they forgot how hard this hit. Ne-Yo floated on the hook, but Plies completely killed it. This song made every car stereo rattle back in the day.
