The next artist has the biggest AC hits of the top five artists, but not as many as the top four.

AC is such a tragic format

An understandable sentiment when one's fave best performing song on the format only hit #11.

If we took into account the all-time most successful AC artists then Whitney Houston would be #1 among Black Female artists and Lionel Richie would be #1 among Black Male artists, and both their respective peaks on this format took place in the 1980's/early 1990's. 

 

Who is the most successful Black artist at AC radio this century thus far, if any? :skull:

Does Maroon 5's keyboard player count?

 

In all seriousness though, probably Leona Lewis. She has 51 weeks.
