Ted Nugent. He is just a complete scumbag and without his shitty music career he never would have impacted so many people with his gross bullshit. The world would be better off if his music never existed.

Mariah Carey. I work retail. If you know, you know.

I won't say his name but I stopped someone's musical career once. He was an up and coming young guitarist, getting performing gigs here and there, and teaching guitar students to help pay his bills while waiting for a break. I took some lessons from him and as part of general chatting it came out that I worked with computers. He thought that was interesting and asked good questions, so I brought him some programming books. He became a full time programmer a couple months later and a very good one too. I'm glad it worked out for him, but I always wonder what we lost.

Michael Jackson. Having his career fail during the childhood "Jackson 5" phase. Better for him and a lotta other people.

Outside the box: Robert Elliot, a charter pilot who flew and killed Jim Croce by crashing into a tree on takeoff. Pilot error was found to be the cause as the overweight 57 year old pilot was unable to drive to the airport so ran for 3 miles, from his motel to the hangar, to be on time for the flight. The run exacerbated his coronary artery disease, causing him to tunnel vision and not see the tree.

Chris Brown because fuck that guy.

I think it would have been better for Brittany if she hadn't been famous.

I'd do the inverse of this and see what might have happened if Charles Manson had had a successful music career. I heard an album of his songs and they were actually pretty good, kind of a mix of The Beach Boys and The Doors. Maybe if he'd sold some more songs then he wouldn't have gone into the whole murder cult thing.

But then again maybe it would have positioned him to be way worse and we're actually living in the universe where somebody stopped Manson from achieving true wealth and power and like leading a nationwide death cult or something.

Black Eyed Peas, I feel like that band was forced on me for like a decade.

Linkin park. Cuz in the end, they didn't even matter.

Elvis. Just to see what happens.

Amy Winehouse. If she stayed a blues singer in London she might not have had so many drug issues made worse by fame.

Probably a very unpopular opinion but…

Taylor Swift. I am so sick of seeing her name mentioned all the time.

Drake.

Wanker.

Courtney Love already did this

I'd straight up yesterday the Beatles. Fuck'em.

Bono. He's the biggest piece of shit.

The singer of 30 Seconds to Mars

Milli Vanilli

Phil Spector. His wall of sound bullshit caused decades of potentially amazing albums to sound like shit, and he's a terrible person who has brought nothing on the world that's worth keeping.

Tool.

The band itself is fine. Their fans however...

ICP

The Beatles.

Bon Jovi. Nobody needed that.

Johann Sebastian Bach

Corey Feldman

~~Ted Bundy.~~ Charlie Manson (Oops, swaped serial killer names when i typed it out)

Maybe without music and the Beach Boys connection he never gets his cult off the ground.
