Survey: Most Loyal Artist/Genre Fanbases


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

To put each fanbase to the test, we calculated a loyalty index. This score was determined from a set of survey questions (including how far they’d travel, how much they’d spend, and others). It’s out of a possible 100, with a 100 indicating the most loyal fanbase. 

 

We found that BTS fans are willing to travel an average of 2,040 miles to see them in concert — the most of any fan group, garnering a loyalty score of 88.4 out of a possible 100 (the highest of any artist). 

 

The King of Pop places second with a loyalty score of 76.8. If Michael Jackson were still alive today, fans would be willing to pay an average concert ticket price of $660. Fans would also pay in excess to see BTS ($500), Lady Gaga ($405), Harry Styles ($356), and Taylor Swift ($354).

 

Elton John and Lady Gaga both have a cherished fanbase, earning them loyalty scores of 66.4 and 63.3, respectively. 

 

When it comes to genres with the most loyal fanbases, R&B, rap, pop, and hip-hop dominate the charts. Fans of genres like R&B say they’d spend up to 18% of their savings to see their favorite artist live. Who wouldn’t want to see Usher or Aretha Franklin up close?

Of all time?

It's kind of odd to compare artists with decades of career to ones that like..one decade

 

 

 

But cute research

altho I expected Pop to be much lower and rock/metal - higher

Was this survey conducted before or after the migraine pill gate?

BTS at number one makes the most sense me fears. I feel like Barbz should be on here. They carry Nicki a lot

Shocked to see Rock that low considering how annoying the stans are

Any small, ridiculous thing for them is a reason to call their bands sell outs or whatever. Pop music has a lot of switching but once the artist strikes gold (i.e. Bey, Taylor), the fan bases are usually very loyal.

Not surprised with R&B and Rap at the top, considering Chris Brown and Kanye West still have a career :rip:

The “MJ fans would pay the most to see him again—an average of $660 per ticket” seems astoundingly low considering that was like floor / lower bowl VIP Eras Tour ticket price, before fees.
