Kelly Clarkson - fan of her voice when she does covers. Don’t usually care for the songs she records.

No offense taken
I’m not gonna lie even tho I know the shite I might get about Swift. I have a daughter and I’ve been to couple of shows and she’s talented and I have some of her songs mixed in playlist. There are good.
A true guilty pleasure I guess

But she wasn't a solo artist. She was the lead singer for Blondie. Best female band leaders in addition to Debbie would be Chrissie Hynde.

She released 5 solo albums

Everyone knows she was the lead in Blondie. The band disbanded early on. But got back together much later.

Fun fact- she was the OG female rapper

Maria did a lot of solo stuff. Her 2007 “Live at BBC” is on my current playlist.

I don’t know how I didn’t include Joni on my list. Maybe because I don’t really know all of her catalog, but listen to only a few tunes of hers on repeat.

Bobbie Gentry, Carol King, Allison Krause, also all great. I would add Dusty Springfield to that list.

Anyone who says she isn't is just being stupid. You may not like her but she is certainly talented.

I always find it odd that people who gravitate toward alternative musical tastes seem to automatically be dismissive of anyone who has popular success.
