Robbie Williams ist ein berühmter Sänger

to make the difference between opera singers, rock stars and so on, you can say:
"Robbbie Williams ist ein berühmter Schlagersänger"

(Schlager -Hits)

That should help.

Robbie Williams ist ein berühmter Rocksänger

Wenn man in diesem Fall, einem international berühmten Sänger redet, ist es ein Rocksänger. Schlager bezieht sich auf deutsche Musik, meiner Meinung nach. Ein Schlagersänger ist Chris Roberts, Jürgen Markus oder ähnl.
