I totally get that you're trying to troll me at this point but as you know, I can keep arguing all night if you want. I don't give a fuck if you think him and Chris brown and Cher and Duran Duran are legends, I do not.

i don't think any of them are legends. i said i wouldn't be opposed to someone bringing up the argument (of chris brown, not sure where cher and duran duran came from).
and yes it contradicts what you've said because you're talking about musicians being considered legends based on their musical depth, not their popularity (which i should mention i agree with). but when you say 'you either make music people like or you don't', it seems like you're arguing towards an artist who has a higher quantity of listeners rather than an artist of musical depth with a lower quantity of listeners.
here's an article i would encourage you to read that brings up a similar point i have.
