There is a new leader, and his name is Jimi Hendrix, with a smashing 91, he tops the list dropping Tupac to second place, will anyone get higher then Hendrix, only time will tell.

Up this time, we have someone who you may or may not like, as im trying to be diverse in this, and include all genres, I am putting a country singer in here.

Garth Brooks

Troyal Garth Brooks (born February 7 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/February_7), 1962 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1962)) is an American (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States) country music (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Country_music) singer-songwriter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singer-songwriter). Successfully integrating rock (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_music) elements into his recordings and live performances, Brooks soon began to dominate the country singles and country album charts and quickly crossed over into the mainstream pop arena, exposing country music to a larger audience than previously thought possible.
Brooks has enjoyed one of the most successful careers in popular music history, with over 70 hit singles and 15 charted albums to his credit and over 123 million albums sold in the United States alone. Throughout the 1990s he broke records for both sales and concert attendance. In 1999, looking to expand his career boundaries, Brooks began an artistically ambitious multimedia project involving a fictitious alter ego (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alter_ego) known as Chris Gaines (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Gaines).
Troubled by the conflicts between career and family, in 2001 Brooks officially retired from recording and performing. During this time he has sold millions of albums through an exclusive distribution deal with Wal-Mart (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wal-Mart) and has sporadically released new singles.<sup id="_ref-ledoux_0" class="reference"></sup>
On November 6th, 2007, The Ultimate Hits (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ultimate_Hits) was released. He will be playing nine consecutive nights at the Sprint Center (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprint_Center) in Kansas City, Missouri (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kansas_City%2C_Missouri) in November.

I grew up listening to a lot of Garth Brooks, so he gets a few points for nostalgia purposes. He's got a few songs that I am a huge fan of (The Dance, The Thunder Rolls, Unanswered Prayers), but for the most part is very generic.

Easily one of my favorite country singers.

Also, you need to do Jimmy Buffet.
