Most Underrated Artist
Who do you think is the most underrated artist? To me it's Matchbox 20. They're extremely talented yet not very famous. It seems Rob Thomas is more well known for singing with Santana than his band's well written, very catchy music. Who else do you think hasn't had their share of fame for their amount of talent?

Matchbox 20 not famous? x_x Maybe it's because they're a top40 group and are not played on MTV.
Underrated artists, hrm....can't think of one ._. I'll think of one!

Ummm, I've known of Matchbox 20, through TV and Radio, since Middle School, and I'm graduating in 4 days. The video for Unwell was #1 on the top twenty of VH1 for months.. which is based on record sales, voes, rotation on airwaves, etc. They're famous.

Incubus is underrated, as for western music.
As for eastern music, I think Onitsuka Chihiro is underrated. She was fairly popular there for awhile, and then definitely took a hit in the popularity. ;_; *cries* Other than her, Kiroro is underrated. They make some dang fine music. Oh, and aiko. She'd be more popular if she were perceived as cuter, I think. She has the pipes and the songwriting technique. She just doesn't look like an idol.

I'd say Ayumi Hamasaki. I mean, what's this "#1" thing? Isn't there something higher then that?
Ok, kinda silly and kinda serious, I'm sorta obsessed with Ayu ya know. ^_^

I'd say Kagrra are underrated. They're such an awesome band and very talented. I mean, if you're into J-rock (especially indie, and visual-kei), people know who they are. But they just got singed to a major label... Everyone should know who they are!!

The western music I listen to is a WHOLE lot different than the eastern music I listen to. I'd say the most underrated western singer/group would be Powerman 5000. Matchbox 20, AFI, Mindless Self Indulgence and all of the oriental music. I never see any of my favorite artists on tv or hear them on the radio :'(. Most people don't like what they don't understand...and I feel sorry for those people. Recently, games like Kingdom Hearts and FFX2 have introduced a lot of people to the jpop world...but still, we be only a minority of fans here in the U.S. Makes me wanna cry....

matchbox 20? =o if its on vh1 it is not underrated it is over played. Same with incubus. I like both bands btw.
I guess it depends on where you live too, because we have a lot of popular underground kind of bands and stuff. Other bands like Anit-Flag, and "punk" kind of things are popular. I like them, but they seem to overrated. Give me a good DeathCab for Cutie anyday! I <3 Mindless self indulgence =o very sad songs, but catchy.

I LOVE ACE OF BASE!! I know I'm kinda late, but hey, I didn't come to America until I was 7 (7!!) so I didn't have the chance to get into Ace of Base. But I'm so into them!
Matchbox 20 is not really underrated for me...I hear them on the radio all the time. I think that group that sings "California"--you know, the theme song for the O.C.--is pretty underrated. And the band that the guy who plays Michael in the Princess Diaries is in (in real life). Rooney, is his name....???
