Without doubt anything ...RAP and HIP HOP. Call that music????? ...and the record producers and companies/labels

Re: the poll - I don't think anyone of those artists are solely responsible for the state of today's   pop music scene. As has been said before, many have combined non-talent to steer the music scene where it is today.

BTW - Michael Jackson

Gonna go with Vanilla Ice on this one...ugh.....  Micheal Jackson and the Eagles made decent pop music, so they haven't really done any damage to the music business per se.  Well, let's just say Britney and Christina aren't quite AS awful as the Ice Man.  I just have to do it again.....!

Music started to die the very day a person making noises with a pickup and a long-playing was titled "musician".

MTV. They are EVIL. They influence kids by saying that 'American Idiot' is the best album, whereas it is the most popular.

Also, during the 2005 Awards, did anyone notice the 'interview' with Greenday about 'Jesus of Suburbia'? Wow, so they made a 12-minute song and a 9-minute song, "full of narratives" to Armstrong. So original.

I think votes for the Eagles are a little unfair.....I was taken (albeit unwillingly) to an Eagles concert at Wembley some while back and I have to say, I ended up enjoying it! Joe Walsh especially was good.

Ditto Michael Jackson he's done a few cracking songs...

................my vote went to Britney with Vanilla Ice close behind...

I can't believe Eagles are even included in this list.  They were and forever will be the best country-rock group ever.

The pop of the past few years has caused the most damage to music.  The Killers, Boy, Jet, Franz Ferdinand.  All of that crap.

Jackson (from your list anyway this is an obvious choice) existed well before the other artists - outside the Eagles that is , but that is a bait , you wiseguy.

Safe to say that without Jackson around (and the birth of MTV at the time of his Thriller album) , none ofthe other choices would've had much of a life!

I agree with this.MTV is awful, they usually choose Nirvana as the best rockband ever, and choose American Idiot and other ge(r)ms  as album of the year.

Vanilla Ice is a travesty to all music. The only good thing about his music is that he's SO FUNNY!!! He's so bad that he's hilarious!!

okay- pop culture and human nature has caused the most damage to music. Eveyone wants to be popular, so they just listen to whatever eveyone else does, and think it's the best because that's what is most popular. Not me though, I try to be not popular.

MJ has been in his life a musical genius, the eagles have done no damage, they are just not to your taste, and Britney is just a girlie who out grew the disney club, (like Christina) Vanilla Ice however, well, I STILL can not forgive him for sampling Bowie's under pressure way back in , what was it, '90, '91???

Hideous, absoloutly hideous, and I think it incouraged a whole heap of ripping off great classic pop to make drivel
