“Either they’re extremely lazy, or Billboard is simply out of touch with current musical styles. This rock chart should be more respectful of rock and metal artists, and all artists, period. Hardworking metal and rock bands don’t have a chance at the proper recognition they deserve. Billboard should redo this chart and remove non-rock artists like Tori Amos, Lorde and others.
It’s disrespectful to all artists. Tori Amos? I own a few of her early records, and I can assure you when I purchased these, they weren’t filed under “rock.” Lana Del Rey? Didn’t she do a dance mix to get a Top 40 hit? Oh, and she’s performing at Kanye West‘s wedding to Kim Kardashian – how is that “rock? Even Lorde is annoyed.” -Steve “Skinny” Felton
