Singers born at the wrong time

No not like “hey Janis Joplin would’ve been great in the grunge era.”  
 

I was reading outliers, which is a book, I know I’m a nerd, and one of the factors of success is when you were born. If Bull Gates were born ten years earlier or later he wouldn’t have been the founder of Microsoft. 
 

So I’m looking at Taylor Duane.  If she was born like 5-10 years ahead of Madonna would we even know who Madonna is?  I wonder if Taylor thinks about that?

 

or in the country genre, if Jodie massina came out before Reba, would Reba had been as successful?

Chris Robinson born 20 years earlier would have jostled with Plant and Daltrey for the Pantheon.

But it begs the question if the artist would be the same without the earlier time being an influence. An earlier Tailor Dwayne might be doing singer-songwriter confessional instead of dance pop.
