it's unequivocally Drake.
Sad but true, Weeknd wasn't ever the most popular or successful artist in his career. A better comparison would be with Post, Travis, Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift or Bruno Mars for best decade.

Drake probably has the better numbers on paper because he's Drake, but in terms of what the year has meant for the artist? 2020 is hands down Abel's year

Well the OP listing #1's, sales, and etc so most people gonna assume he's talking numbers most importantly.
Lots of hurt stans in here. Neither side will concede so my prediction is this thread goes on forever
