Yeah but when adele dropped it rocked the world, 18m albums sold in a month
I always forget how incredible big Rihanna is. Like Beyonce she made the list 2 times. But while Beyonce got atleast 2 classic albums, Rihanna got really only got her huge singles. Does she have any album that is any good?
ANTI pretty good imo
The one we would think is Em, so I’m guessing Drake.
oh no it was the one you think
that’s why it’s the one you wouldn’t think
First thing I noticed is that they tried to pass one and push Bey over 50
It invalidates the whole list.
This is the Billboard writers' voted best artists of each year. If we go by numbers
2000: Destiny's Child
2001: Destiny's Child
2002: Nelly
2003: 50 Cent
2004: Usher
2005: 50 Cent
2006: Chris Brown
2007: Akon
2008: Chris Brown
2009: Taylor Swift
2010: Lady Gaga
2011: Eminem
2012: Adele
2013: Taylor Swift
2014: Justin Timberlake
2015: Taylor Swift
2016: Adele
2017: Ed Sheeran
2018: Drake
2019: Post Malone
Tbh this list looks much more accurate
Wayne definitely had 2008 on lock though. That must have been before his UFC match with Rihanna.
Then it’s Kanye West with Yeezus era: Bound 2 video, married Kim, had North, dissed JT, New Slaves performances and eventually Yeezus, etc.
Only rivalled by Taylor Swift.
Fun fact:
Lady Gaga had such a stronghold on pop culture in her prime that she was the #1 most Google searched person every month from 2009 to the middle of 2012. She was even more searched than MJ the month he died
she was HUGE as f*** tbh
Lmaoooo cmon now.
Forever, with you, kiss kiss, take you down, wall to wall, and superhuman all came out in late 2007. He ran s***

Came out in the second half of the year. Also that’s objectively less hits than I just listed
How are you disputing the actual numbers? That chart is objective
Also I’m 22 so I was very much around for 2008
No criteria just BB writers voting
pretty sure it's based on chart data/sales since that's Billboard's only reason for existing.
