Honorific nicknames in popular music

Honorific nicknames are special names that musicians give each other to show respect. For example, the singer Michael Jackson was sometimes called the "King of Pop" by his fans and other musicians as a special nickname to express how much respect they had for him. Other popular musicians have similar honorific nicknames, like rappers Eminem (who is often called the "rap god") and Jay-Z (who is often called the "Godfather of Hip Hop"). These nicknames help show the admiration and respect that other musicians have for the artist.
