That is to say, they not only have a good musical trajectory but they continue to release many successful songs. Here we will tell you which are the most influential women in pop music. 

Miley Cyrus

Although she is now delving into the rock field, Miley Cyrus was a real "boom" in the pop industry. She started her career at a very young age when she played the character of Hannah Montana on Disney. However, by 2007 she released her first solo album.

Since then, Miley Cyrus has become one of the most popular singers on the planet, winning hundreds of awards and accolades from critics and fans alike. She is even considered one of the few young actors who managed to become successful singers. Her musical style continues to be pop, although she incorporates rock and country sounds, achieving a very effective combination, and her husky voice is her most distinctive feature!

Rihanna

Rihanna is known for being one of the best pop singers in history. She has managed to maintain this musical style throughout her career, although it is also true that she incorporated Caribbean rhythms into most of her songs. Therefore, she is known as the Princess of R&B and the most influential artist of the 21st century.

During her career, she has had 14 #1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100. She also has more than 200 million digital downloads, making her one of the best-selling artists of all time. Fans love her, but so do industry critics. She is currently on a musical hiatus but is expected to return to the industry in the short term.
