    Joe Public has heard of BB King. Some know about Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker. Those into music might know about Robert Johnson. Then ya get the historians/freaks/geeks like myself that go back to when it all began....Mamie Smith in 1920.
    I've heard of all those people. Katy Perry is more loved than all of them combined.

    Yeah, I was watching a news report on that and was immediately su ious.
    They found her & helicopter her to a hospital; apparently OK…The area I am familiar with is not difficult to find the main road or running stream….Their story will be interesting…

    Jesus didn't kill anyone while on earth. Why do you think that's relevant to him killing while in heaven?
    Just comparing Jesus to what Mohammad was doing. You do know about Mohammad and all that viloence, right?

    I've heard of Mamie and so have many, many more. We just don't make a big deal about it.
    I seriously doubt that.

    You obviously have no clue who those guys were. Trust me Katy Perry wouldn't make a zit on the ass of any of those I mentioned.

    Let's see who she was influensed by, be right back.

    Paste...

    Growing up listening to mostly gospel music, Perry had few references when she began recording songs.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Now who is the daddy of Gospel music, try Georgia Tom Dorsey, who was a blues piano/vocalist.

    Mohammed isn't the messiah of Islam. He was a prophet. If you compare him to prophets from the Judeo-Christian tradition, he fits right in -- maybe even falls a bit short of the actions of a guy like Joshua.

    No she isn't.

    Dude, trust me......do your homework...ok? Do you really believe Katy Perry is more revered than BB King? And with other musicians....Robert Johnson?

    She is more popular than they ever were or will be.

    You made the comparison. It was faulty. I corrected you.

    You will now get angry.

    Dude, trust me Katy Perry is in no way shape or form better known/more respected/popular than BB King. To think she is tells me just how far gone you really are.

    You don't compare Katy Perry to an all time legend.

    You have heard of...BB King Day...right? You do know he had his own museum, right? 13 time Grammy Winner.

    Sure them blues is a cult thing but not BB King.

    You do know that BB King first recored in 1951 and has been all around the world in the last 50 years or so, right? No way in Katy Perry is better known. The popular thing is weird, whoever is hot right now, so....

    Tons of people wouldn't have a clue who she is, that can't be said about BB King.

    Of course that can be said about BB King.

    You have very unrealistic expectations about what people know.

    No I don't. When a guy has toured the world and been around since the 50's far more people are going to be aware of him than...Katy Perry..it's called...common sense.

    Check out any type of ...Music Icons/Greatest Muscical Artists etc etc...you will find BB King somewhere there, while Katy Perry is no where to be found.

    What's weird however is that to us blues freaks, BB King is behind a number of guys.

    If one asks the average American if they know who Robert Johnson and Katy Perry are, odds are that more will have heard of the latter.

    Why do you keep trying to change the subject?

    We're talking about popularity and notoriety here, dummy. With media and the internet, Katy didn't need fifty years of touring to become more well-known and more popular and sell more records than BB King did. Quit being dumb, dummy, and stop saying dumb things.

    No one cares.

    I agree with that.


    If you asked those deeply into music then it would be Robert Johnson.

    Still ain't buying it moron. BB King is a legend, I seriously doubt Katy Perry has anything over ...The King.

    Dude, trust me you are the last person wo needs to tell anyone about being dumb. That's ing funny.

    Stop with this stupid...no one....how do you know?

    Comparing Katy Perry to music icons who have had movies made/books written about them....wow! Everyone into music knows the influense Robert Johnson had on it, who isn't aware of the impact BB King has made? Katy Perry????????

    How many Katy Perry tunes have been covered? The list of rockers who have done Robert Johnson songs is a mile long. Whole CD's dedicated to Robert.

    I'm not talking about a bunch of kids, I'm talking about long time music freaks like myself. Those who know music.

    I have no doubts that Justin Beiber is far more revered "right now" than any of the greats/legends. But not to those who know music.

    Nobody here has made the argument that Katy Perry has been more influential to modern music than Robert Johnson or BB king.

    The average Joe, in all likelyhood, will have heard of Katy Perry more often than BB King or Robert Johnson or Muddy Waters or Chuck Berry.

    You honestly believe that Katy Perry is better known than Chuck Berry?
