I like plenty of rock artists from the 2000s-today but not well enough to feel any were worthy of putting on any "favorites" list. A lot of "pretty good", nothing amazing.

[Headhunter]

Was going to put Eminem for the 2000s but remembered Slim Shady LP was '99. Two great albums not enough to get that spot.

[Jason]

[DancesWithWerewolves]

No fucking Jewel fans?!

I tolerated her, thought she was hot though.

[zombie]

She was the best of the 90s!

nah, she's a stand out, but one of many.

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Alaskans hate Jewel, btw. Mainly because she was from there, and then she acted like she wasn't, so they felt burned.

[Headhunter]

Why no 20s music, Jason?

[Jason]

Memphis Minnie & Kansas Joe McCoy.

Are you sure those are you favorite Biggie ones?

I was making a joke because those being the only two he made. Googled it to make sure and SHIT! There was a bunch of crap after he died. Morbidly hilarious.
