Music is one of the most widely consumed forms of entertainment for people from all around the world.

As a result, talented American singers have become world stars, with their hits charting everywhere and stadium world tours being sold out in the blink of an eye.

Even so, popularity comes and goes, with one-hit wonders making headlines for a couple of months and then chasing the high for the rest of their career with mixed results. Not to worry – that’s not the case for the talented men populating our list.
