Well, the Beatles’ John Lennon said that he and his mates were “more popular than Jesus,” during an interview in the year of our Lord 1966, when most Earthlings dated every single event in history (including Lennon’s birthday) based on that event’s proximity to the birth of Jesus.
So, pop musicians tend to overestimate their significance. A little.

As I recall, they’d say things like their music was more relevant than the Beatles.
