This list covers 14 singers whose names start with the letter Q, running from “Queen Latifah” to “Quadeca.” These artists span decades and genres, from hip-hop and R&B to reggae and metal, and most built their careers through recorded music, live performances, and, in several cases, breakout moments on platforms like YouTube.

Singers are performers who use their voice as their main instrument to express melody, emotion, and story through music. Many start out singing in local scenes or online before landing a record deal, and some, like Q Lazzarus, become known for a single unforgettable song that outlives their time in the spotlight. Others, such as Quorthon, help define an entire subgenre through years of consistent work.
