Jungkook on Rolling Stone’s The 200 Greatest Singers of All Time List

The list spans multiple decades and a wide array of genres, topped by Aretha Franklin herself.
“Keep in mind that this is the Greatest Singers list, not the Greatest Voices list…,” the publication noted. “In all cases, what mattered most to us was originality, influence, the depth of an artist’s catalog, and the breadth of their musical legacy.”
