Tough question. Tougher for me than those "5 most favourite albums" threads we had.
It's certainly not Lionel Richie. I just skipped one of his awful songs on LastFM just to hear Marvin Gaye's "What's Happening Brother" as next random soul song. Ah Marvin, you were the man.
Marvin, James Brown, Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Stevie Wonder, James Cooke and others come to my mind, but when I take the word "entertainer" literally my split vote goes to...
Frank Sinatra
and
They were entertainers you don't have anymore today.
