Cloröx Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 Taylor was indeed surpassing Britney and Beyonce

A joke Bieber kept releasing albums at his peak, versus Shania stretched out eras for years. In 2011 alone he had 3 albums among the top-selling of the year. They both have 5 top 10 year-end placements, and Bieber had one more top 5 year-end placement.
Ash12345 Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 Looking at the acts posted so far, Taylor should still be quite a bit ahead of them since she has way more albums that were in the top 10 and top 3 YECs. Only Adele can I see rivaling her because saying that 21 and 25 were #1 on YECs doesn't do justice to the leads they had in their respective years. I can see Drake at #3, Eminem at #4 and Garth Brooks at #5. Garth Brooks had a ton of albums though even if not all were huge so I might be underestimating him.

Cockney Cupcake Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 There’s no way Adele is #1 with only 3 albums counting
Ash12345 Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 Garth Brooks is kind of crazy when you consider that four of his five biggest albums were released before this period in 1989-1992.

But yeah, he's undoubtedly in the top 5 biggest males in US ever. If his peak years just a few years prior were included he'd also be top 3 easily.
