Drake over Taylor?

 

Taylor will probably snatch tbh

[omorfo]

Top Christian artists? Wtf

[Lazerbeamz]

Wouldn’t Adele be over Bruno? 

[omorfo]

The Chainsmokers above gaga  I guess they had the last laugh 

[brainmaniac]

Taylor clearly dominated most of the 2010s over Drake

 

The Billboard decade lists are always compiled weirdly

Taylor Swift appears in Top 10 on Top Country Artist

Check the top electronic artists list. But yeah she’s above them in the overall chart, I wonder how it works, do they only count her albums that are considered electronic/edm for that chart?

It doesn't include Joanne + ASIB, they aren't electronic/dance

She was more successful than him in the first half of the decade but his dominance in the second half of the decade was massive. He's also the #1 Billboard 200 and Hot 100 artist of the decade.

She won't. The full list already leaked last year on their website and people got access to them and they've all been accurate compared to what they've revealed officially so far.

Seems like they want to make a big deal of it at the 2021 BBMAs and properly honor the Artist of the Decade. It's a huge achievement so it really isn't that surprising. 

[legendofthetour]

It’s only right

I hope Billboard writes an article listing all his stats and achievements on their charts. 

[prunejuicemontes]

I thought this was already announced?

[TayDine1989]

And by that time, we'll already be uninterested

Not really. Drake has had multiple back to back smash hits every year of the 2010s. Not to mention massive albums.

 

Drake:

Thank Me Later - 93 weeks

Take Care - 404 weeks

Nothing Was The Same - 355 weeks

If You're Reading This It's Too Late - 197 weeks
What A Time To Be Alive - 96 weeks

Views - 239 weeks

More Life - 190 weeks

Scorpion - 126 weeks

Dark Lane Demo Tapes - 30 weeks

 

Drake was clearly much bigger on Billboard. Taylor was bigger in tours and pure sales though.

 

OT: Rihanna missing the Top 3 because of a 4 year hiatus 

[Green]

They should have done this at the 2020 Awards   

[OrgVisual]

So we have to wait one more year for this?  This fake hype

Less than a year. A few months.

Most acts wouldn't have showed up because of COVID. By the 2021 BBMAs, the distribution of vaccines will make a lot more acts more comfortable to attend. Also, a lot more acts will be nominated for stuff at next year's show so there'll be more incentive for people to attend. 

[jdanton2]

Bruno did very well considering he only released 3 albums.
