GIRLLLLLLLLLLLL I was expecting SINGING songwriters, NOT hiphop artists! see, this is why I don't listen to top40 radio anymore - it's so hiphop ridden!

well, at least Mariah is on there. I like her. but the rest!

sorry about my salty mood rn, I just read some celeb news that pissed me off, and I'm just in a mood rn.

I guess Niall Horan and Taylor Swift are dead to them.

okay, now I'll stop.

Honestly I don't see how Taylor wasn't rank higher, her songs tell stories and are well written with beautiful descriptions, metaphors, wording, storytelling, etc. She has amazing talent in writing

most people i listen to are either non-american or non-living so i don't really have much to add to this list, i think the people included are exactly who i expected to be there. congrats to them i guess

i don't think it's ranked, these people are put in the tweet in a random order. but i agree that writing is probably the best part of her music (maybe not on her last album though...)

The only person(s) I like on the list are the dream
Lana Del Ray and Fiona Apple

I know most of them but subjective yes

As Rick says in the video: A list for everyone is a list for no one.
