There you have 50 I think.

Name 50 artists that released a CD in the last 3 years and you'll win a prize.

Fixed

why the last 3 years?

as you ask, ill name you 3: Oasis, R.E.M and U2, all released albums in the last 3 years, all UK number one's

but i would add, how recent music is has no baring on its quality (though, imo, ive not heard much good since the 90's)

also, sales do not = quality

critics can be bought and sold by record companies 

Let's just say that in 50 years, Jay-Z would be remembered in rap music in they way Elvis is remembered in rock music.  It's not fair to compare an artist still making music with artists that currently are not. (or dead for that matter)
