Who is the best songwriter alive today? The musician responsible for the lyrics and music that's the most memorable, significant and lasting in all of rock history, who is still with us today.
Rolling Stone Magazine has his own ranking list which you can findHERE Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time
"The 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time" is a feature published by the American magazine Rolling Stone in August 2015.

However, it predominantly features American and English songwriters solely of the rock era.[
We're talking, over the course of an entire career, the person who has written the most great songs--the best songwriters of the 20th and 21st century. A few things to keep in mind, songwriting teams are acceptable if they truly worked together (for example, Elton John writing music to Bernie Taupin's lyrics). When possible, as in the case of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, separate them and focus on individual songwriting.
Of course, who would forget one-half of the creative mind of the greatest band to have ever existed, Paul McCartney has surely made his mark on everybody who lived after the Beatles dominated the industry.

The Who had a one-of-a-kind drummer, a brilliant bassist, a towering singer — and their songs featured some pretty impressive guitar playing too. But they would never have gone anywhere if Pete Townshend hadn't developed into an endlessly innovative songwriter.
