I’ll check but I thought Elvis had a #1 in the 2000s. I’ll check and update today.

Oh wait you're right :laugh:

If features are included for #1 songs, Elton has his own for the 70s and 90s but a feature for the 80s as part of "Dionne & Friends"

Is that for a song or for an album?

Song, the charity version of That's What Friends Are For was in the 80s and went #1 with Dionne, Elton, Gladys Night and Stevie Wonder. He has #1 albums from the 70s and 90s though, so missed the three-decade albums record. His best charting for albums in the missing decades are:

 

#13 - 1980s

#4 - 2000s

#3 - 2010s

 

He had  7 #1 albums in a row but all 1970s, and then had The Lion King in the 90s as his 8th and last #1 album.

its not official until next Monday but since I updated the other thread about female #1s for selena I figured I’d do it all at once.

We love to see the only artists to have 1# in several decades :cm: 

Agree.

Also Janet being the only female I think with multiple #1s in 3 decades

80s - 2

90s - 6

00s- 2

So I'm going to keep this seat warm since HDD essentially has confirmed Beyonce has joined the group but will wait for Billboard official numbers to update the OP:gayoncecat1:

Beyonce is the 29th artist to attain #1 albums and #1 singles in at least 3 decades.

4th women behind (1st) Janet in 2001, (2nd) Britney in 2011 and 3rd Madonna (2012):clap3:

Currently, female artists with #1 albums and singles in at least 3 decades:

(1st)   - Janet Jackson

(2nd) -  Britney Spears

(3rd) -  Madonnna

(4th) - Beyonce

who do you all think will round out the top 5?

 

Will we get to 10?

 

See OP for options

 

I think Mariah will be the 5th...

Gaga, Adele, Ariana, Taylor might take 6th through 9th place but i'm not sure if another female artist can take it. I'm not even sure if half of them can but I'm being optimistic

29 artists and only 4 females? :rip:

It's just sad. 

And somehow only women are called overrated and are way more hated and despised. 

 

Well at least, 4 is Bey's favorite number, so slé.

Yes, it's a shame but it makes it even MORE special for the four legends that attain this feat.

 

 

 

I can see Mariah getting it 5th but afterwards it might be a trek to get the likes of Ariana/Gaga/Taylor/Adele and others to sit at the table
