POP TRUMPS: Week 5

Another Friday, another round of chart farts Pop Trumps!

Go here to read the rules, but it's easy really. Rate the pop act below in the various categories: 10 is the highest, 0 is the lowest, if you have zero clue then go for 5.

Today's contestants were doing a Top 50 Brilliant Boybands thing on Hits!TV the other night, and modestly only included 5 of their own songs! They also like pointing at things.


Backstreet Boys

Obviously, I already know all of these acts already. I genuinely think that BSB are better than any of them.

n.b. If you count latter era Brit she probably overtakes them.

I assumed you knew...I was just shocked that you'd still say BSB is better while acknowledging their existence.

I hope your conviction gets convictions, because your case-building skills ain't up to snuff, son.

MAH CASE-BUILDING SKILLS IS OFF DA CHAIN, SON.

Case in point:

'NSYNC ROOLZ, BSB DROOLZ

To clarify, I think that BSB are a better singles act than any of the ones listed above, not necessarily a better act overall. I'd say if you count album tracks, mentalism, impact, etc. Spice Girls and Brit are close to BSB and maybe overtake them.
