Adele has mostly older fans. Drake's main demo. boys ages 18-25 aren't listening to Adele. Alot of boys in that age group seldom listen to women artists.

Green Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Based on combined points from Billboard 200 and Hot 100 (for the Hot 100 I used the estimations from Pulse Music Board updated until the last week of July 2018, so the Hot 100 points between August 2018 and January 2019 are missing here): The top 3 is basically locked: 1. Drake 29.150.788 2. Taylor Swift 25.079.925 3. Adele 24.042.288 4. Bruno Mars 20.350.922 5. Justin Bieber 19.338.837 6. Rihanna 17.817.039 7. Ed Sheeran 16.177.911 8. Katy Perry 13.260.303 9.

IVY Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) Touring should be counted because it shows the real popularity of the artists. Drake's numbers are like 70% streaming, he has released 5 solo studio albums & and 2 mix tapes this decade which have sold like 10m in total in the US which is unfair compared to other artists who have sold millions more with less albums and still managed to have huge success on streaming formats.

So because Drake released consistently and smashed each time, it's unfair to other artists? Stop blaming his success for other artists being beneath him. Bruno did well this decade, your post should be congratulating him. Not his fault some take 4-5 years between one album. And if they count touring Drake has good touring stats, despite what atrl says.. Edited January 14, 2019 by Rico Shameless v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all I wasn't talking about bruno taking 4 years to release a new album and I am not mad about that, and second I was referring to other artists like Adele & Taylor who have achieved more impressive success than Drake did this decade and on different formats so yea I think that it should be between these two. Billboard double counting streams for both the Hot 100 and Billboard 200 is just ridiculous. Edited January 14, 2019 by IVY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
