Wow @ Bey!

 

Streaming hates Gaga

Digital sales smashing

Albums' sales also smashing

And now streaming.

Spotify has wayyy more weight than YT on this list (hence Katy & Taylor being so low)

Drake is huge on Spotify

Beyoncé and Rih in the Top 5  

Will Katy be higher with her recent numbers?

I'm surprised Usher is even there  

Eminem's numbers need to be updated 

Britney’s at 2,373,000 so she should be top 40. Hopefully she puts out a lot of new music this year and moves way up the list.

Rihanna, Eminem and Beyoncé slaying together

. Imagine a feature with them together. The slayage

 

 

Talents only.

 

Is there a reason why YouTube is divided by almost 12,000 and Spotify is only divided by 1,500?

Reminder of the formula:

Equivalent Albums Sales (EAS) = 212/132 * Spotify streams / 1500 + YouTube views / 11750

Artists Ranking – Streaming
8. Coldplay – 7,410,000 (as of Jun 2017)

Because, on average, it takes 11,750 YT streams to make the same amount of money as one album sale, but only 1500 Spotify streams to equal the same.

 

I believe BB just recently changed their formula to something similar to this.

I'm shocked that Chris Brown is not on this list yet Usher is.

Then again, Usher does have 1 classic albums that probably still get a lot of recurrant play.

this thread is premature as major artists in streaming like Nicki, Chris and others aren't analyzed yet.

 

the fact that Ariana can jump straight to #4 if her next era goes right 

Shakira making it before even being updated with Chantaje/El Dorado
