Hm, I doubt Abel and Post can sustain it, it's going to end up being between Bad Bunny and Taylor.

To be fair, Taylor also logged 8 consecutive years ranking in the top 5 (2008-2015), but Drake should have no problems extending his run to even 10 years at his current rate.

Yes, everything is considered. It's all there in the graphic.

Most likely gonna be between Drake and Taylor again, tbh. Drake releases more frequently than Bad Bunny and has more of a US-based chokehold. Plus Bad Bunny is still too new in terms of his domination to even put him in the running here. I personally don’t think he’ll “fall off” but it’s possible. 

 

Taylor will take it if she continues dominating at her current pace for a while, with all the TVs still left to come and definitely several more studio albums. Her catalogue will continue surging for years to come, which will make up for if her newer releases start slowing down #s wise. But Drake very well could get it once again if he keeps dropping 2-3 projects per year without stopping, despite his dwindling numbers (dwindling in terms of new releases and his catalogue both).

Abel & Drake are gonna the biggest rival:

1.  Post Malone flopped & is over already let's be honest.

2. Bad Bunny did not make it into the top 40s until May this year, so he's like 3 million points behind the rest of the top dogs, and i just dont see him continue being this big in his next era, or at least the one after. 

3.  Drake and The weeknd will be tough tho. firstly Abel is still ahead by quite a lot; and while he cant mass-release like rappers & his work takes a lot of time to create, his staying power is very promising. his style and genre are unique, hes got no peers to compete with. people will always tune in to him. I dont see him out of the race for any particular reason, hes gonna be charting for a long long time. 

4.  Whereas Drake,  the GP simply dont get tired of him despite dropping multiple albums in a year. his hot100 performance couldve been a lot stronger too if he tried to. he didnt have a pre-released single with radio deals this last few years but obvsly he can have it if he chose to. 

 

Taylor has a few big advantages,  but also one huge disadvantage:

1. shes unmatchable in the albums side of things.

2. She's gonna have the biggest tour of all time, and her next few tours will still be bigger than anything they'll pull together.

3. drake is also gonna be on tour the next year, hes neither gonna match her numbers nor does he got any side project to drop while at it. taylor 

meanwhile could always drop a TV or two while on tour.  that's gonna give her a modest boost while Abel is still recuperating & Drake hibernating. 

 

but being a female artist, her staying power is gonna be her biggest enemy ngl :rip: how is she gonna compete with the dudes when shes 37? you could only hope they too have flopped by that point.:rip::rip::rip:

Taylor’s decade Hot 100 stats are horrible and it looks like Midnights won’t catch her up to Drake because her disadvantage is that Drake serves consistency on both BB200 and Hot 100 :turkey:

As if Midnights is not smashing in both charts and doing a lot better than Her Loss.

Yes, but that's her first album in almost a decade to do that, which is what I think that poster was referring to. Drake is right there with Taylor in terms of Billboard 200 consistency with the addition that he has always smashed on the Hot 100. He never goes a year without scoring at least one smash hit record. 

 

Midnights is Taylor's first album to have multiple songs chart for several weeks and so far, it looks like the album will only garner one hit record (albeit a smash hit).

Maybe this ages like milk but I don't think Post Malone will be a contender for Billboard AOTD.

taylor's previous hot 100 stats arent good cus theyre indie-folk albums. no radio support and not popular outside of her fans. shes #6 on hot100 this year after 1 month of entry. she'll be up to speed on that soon.

 

Drake hasnt served consistency on hot100 for 2 years now, while taylor is miles above him on the top 200. shes already ahead of him in the race at this point & will trounce him on touring points as well when they both go on tour the next year.  

 

the race is between the weeknd and taylor. Drake can step aside.

I'm not sure why people are confident in The Weeknd's sustained relevance this decade. He's produced a nice number of hits, but AH still seems to be an outlier compared to his 2010s. I'm not convinced of his staying power. Drake, on the other hand, is going nowhere even if declines for the remainder of the decade.

All the chart points for Her Loss don't count towards this year and he was always going to return to rap following the release of Honestly, Nevermind. Whether with a solo effort or a joint album like Her Loss.
