Only 8 women?  At least Taylor and Adele are leading the pack I guess

Taylor slowly turns me to success stan 

Not a surprising Top 1 

Edited June 6, 20224 yr by PopA911

Where is Lady Gaga with 8-9 albums on her discography ??

her stan said Taylor being #1 because of her 11 albums 

 

Taylor #1

sounds about right 

But ATRL keeps telling me how bad Adele is doing...? She's #2 in the middle of over 90% men?

Hurricane Adele has truly faded 

The Music Industry on top where she belongs   

 

 

The lack of women though

#2 for the lack of longevity is not bad actually. She's Storm Adele now 

The Music Industry as a #1, how predictable

Taylor's longevity is something 

Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Nirvana, Queen 

 

Taylor will keep this BB200 artist monopoly until she's done with the re-recordings, I'm afraid

 

How about the decade so far? 

50 acts: 

37 men

5 groups

8 women 

olivia almost in the top 10 with 1 just album 

doja above a certain girly with her million vinyl variants 

Taylor moving some UNITS without lifting a finger 

The USA hates women we been knew

 

Taylor slaying

 

The fact that two of the three most successful queer acts in music are legacy acts who have been around for 40+ years and whose support largely comes from straight people.

Imagine if she'd dropped 1989TV this April. 

Another 5+ million year for Ms Swift I fear

38	Fleetwood Mac		497,000

She hasn't lifted a finger since early February yet she's #2, behind one of the most active pop girls ever.

Imagine fading that way, whew! Others could only wish.
