A) He was more popular after he had started singing compared to his writing career — need a modifier before Barry and not a clause. Eliminate. Leading to a run on sentence.
B) Being more popular after he had started singing as compared to his writing career — being is incorrect here.
C) Though he is more popular as a singer than as a writer — keep. Correct.
D) Although he was more popular after starting to singing when compared to his writing career - although is correctly used to show contrast. Non underlined portion uses present tense. We need present tense in the modifier too. Eliminate since this uses past tense (was)
E) He had been more popular after starting to sing than in his writing career — same as D. Past perfect used which is just wrong. We don’t have sequence of actions here.
