Would you say that modern, popular artists are good role models for young people?No.

Miscellaneous:

If you could put all copies of one artist's materials into a giant box and lock it away from mankind forever, whose would it be? It really would have to be Leona Lewis. When she's not boring me to death her screeching voice and endless ballads push me close to suicidal. Rihanna comes close though.
