There will never be anyone as big as the afore mentioned artists ever again. Think about it, the music industry is far too vast for one artist to stand alone above all other now. The last of the big bands was U2, even they have gone past thier biggest days. The last of the solo artist legends is Michael Jackson. If you look at all the greats, none of them started out very recently, looking at what we have now, I don't feel any artist will ever be as big as the likes of Elvis, U2, Michael Jackson and others. Now, I hope I'm wrong, but the music industry is a multi billion Euro one, if someone were to dominate it, they would be the richest artist alive, but I don't think it's possible. The music industry is too vast now and we have too many genres, nevermind artists. So I don't feel we'll have any more big legends, the business isn't what it used to be, popular culture has become overly money driven.
