Adele with only 3 albums?  

[Swirl900]

Wow. The top 5 is filled with such amazing legends. Can't wait to see Taylor ascend to #2

Quote

03. Taylor Swift - 1.030

nnnnn for a second I thought this meant Taylor charted on the BB200 for like 20 years  

[Just a Gay on ATRL]

[Kyoto]

I love how the top 10 is filled with amazing singers and Taylor.

[mike3009]

Taylor will soon be #2.

 

We love an albums artist.

 

[ArianadelRey]

Miranda Cosgrove spending more weeks than the lights of Tinashe, Azealia & Marina. LEGEND

[Timber]

Janet is so low in both the Hot 100 and BB200 list. Was it harder to chart backbin the day?

[M-P-B]

Selena won (among the ex-acts) 

[taylor__fan]

Look at all those legend in the top 5  

[Mezik]

Carrie.  

[lipes]

Carrie is a legend 

 

Kelsea Ballerini killed it, 100 weeks with just one album

 

I had no idea Joss Stone spent 150 weeks on Billboard 200

 

Carly Rae Jepsen deserved so much better  (with Emotion)

it could be. 

nowdays streaming is inflating b200.

 

albums sales chart would be more interesting to see than this because everyone would be compared by one metric- sales.  

[Hurem]

Gaga passing Britney soon.

 

[Pikachoo]

LEGEND REBA AT NUMBER 6

No. Madonna, Celine, Whitney and Mariah are where they should be. 

[Ferret]

Hilary Duff, queen of hot 200

she almost made it to the top10 in the Hot100 list, that's not low 

but yeah she's low on this list, but actually while doing them I noticed that most old artists were higher on the B200 lists, almost like it was harder to chart for weeks in the Hot100 but not on the B200, so I can't explain it, but I don't know Janet's career that well so..

Selena

I think the opposite

album sales charts comparing old sales to current sales are so unfair, selling 100,000 now is like selling 500,000 back then (or even more)

Taylor, Beyonce, and Adele being the only contemporary artists amongst those legends.
