Adele and Sam 

Adele and J.Cole - Impressive

Adele and Taylor are bigger.

Adele and Taylor representing for women in the top 10.

 

lowkey surprised Taylor is above Ed.

 

Drake, Ed, Adele, Taylor, and The Weeknd are a solid representative top 5 of this era, but I expected Bieber to be top 10

How? Look how he slayed the girls with albums. He's probably close to beating them both combined in the Hot 100.

The SPS era only started in like 2014, Adele and Taylor are way ahead with numbers from 2010-2014 included. 

I hate that Beyoncé has that much while still saying NO to the streaming era. Lemonade did like 2.55m so 1.6m of this is based on her old stuff getting massive reccurent (1+ yr albums) streams. She'll never learn. 

Taylor

AOTY only counts when the albums or the songs were on the charts? Drake and especially rap songs usually have big peaks but have poor longevity. They should count totals.

No one knows for sure. Some say it's based on totals and some say it's based on chart runs and some say it's a mix of both.
