If that was the case then it's not overrated to you and others because others are doing it and not others. If Katy, Rihanna, and Ke$ha weren't getting number ones, then it wouldn't matter to you guys. Just like you guys say #1 albums don't matter because Rihanna hasn't got one, just like you guys say Grammy's don't matter because she ain't got one solo, just like VMA's, AMA's, etc. don't matter that much because she doesn't have as many as people would expect her to have.

So yes, it is overrated because certain artists like Katy and Rihanna get them and not REAL artists like Janelle Monae. Even back in the day when Milli Vanilli and Paula Abdul were constantly getting number ones out the ass, but at least there was a balance because Mariah and MJ were accomplishing number ones as well.
