Hello everyone :hiii_britney_wave_glaad_2018_waving_hello:

Sales label, IFPI's list for 20 Global Artist Of 2020, that was supposed to come out later this year was leaked so watch me fuel the spreading of the leaked list :hiii_britney_wave_glaad_2018_waving_hello:

In Top 3, we have BTS, Taylor Swift and Drake :mimiclap_mariah_clapping_applause_proud_yes_Yas: The mega-popular South-Korean band released 2 studio albums last year with both debuting at over a 1.000.000 units, and had one of the biggest hits of the year which Grammy-Nominated "Dynamite". The Asians are coming to conquer and we love to see iT :scalped_wind_storm_blowing_sand_dirt_desert_holding_on: Even though, she has been in the game since she was a little girl, Taylor Swift still rakes in millions of sales due to her loyal fan base! She released 2 albums as well last year, with Folklore becoming the US Best-Selling album. Its the power for me your honor :slamga_stupid_love_lady_gaga_chromatica_pink_fall_hit: Who was streaming Drake honestly last year? :wtfdidusay_wth_what_huh_again_who_confused_looking_around:

In the Top 10 we have artist like Billie Eilish, Ariana Grande, and Justin Bieber dominate the list whom released viral hit songs and were on everyones Spotify playlist. Its shocking to see how Billie barely released music, but still came at #6 of globally most popular singers. And yall still say she aint a main pop girl? :roxxy: 

And at Top 15, we have everyone's favorite white singer, Ed Sheeran, whom barely missed the top 10 reaching #11 in IFPI's list. We then have Gaga who has made a highly successful comeback with her first studio album since Joanne (2016), which is 90s-house record, Chromatica :rihclap_rihanna_clapping_applause_yes_yas: Dua Lipa AKA MPG of 2020, also graced this list at #16 after bagging 4 huge hits from her sophomore record, Future Nostalgia :milkney_slumber_party_glory_britney_blue_lick_yum_table:

We also have legendary bands like Queen and Beatles on the list. True legends :mimiclap_mariah_clapping_applause_proud_yes_Yas:

What do you guys think? Slay? :wigsnatched_point_you_wow_yes_yas: Shooketh? :gaga_shocked_stare_lady_dead_white_what_surprised: Did your fave enter the list? :queenflopga_walk_sass_pink: Lemme know :sendinglove_kissing_heart_love_blowing:unnamed-3.thumb.jpg.a1139dac58d9b11477de5c908d8c24f5.jpg

Why is Dua so low despite having one of the most popular and acclaimed pop albums of the year? How is Queen still doing so well even with Freddie gone; is Adam really that good? And how is Gaga lower on this chart compared to 2019 despite her having a new album and a worldwide hit in 2020?

A Star Is Born and Shallow were a lot bigger though. The album was released in 2018, but Gaga winning an Oscar and Grammys gave it incredible longevity.

I guess you forgot the 2019 Biopic gave queen forever relevance and Bohemian rhapsody which began it's forever iconic status in the US, thanks to an appearance on the iconic Cult status film Wayne's World just went Diamond in the US, it's not because of Adam Lambert, without queen he has no career in music, it's because Freddy Mercury is finally being given his flowers 30 years after his death, and being regarded as the best male vocalist that ever lived.

The current generation has ZERO bands that are in mainstream. Weird 

Well considering Rock N Roll is dead, even Gene Simmons said that out of all the genres who would have thought Rock and Metal would be the first to die after being some of the earliest forms of Rebellion music and actually being anarchist Music for people fighting a system.

It's just karma for their toxic fans doing what they did to disco music :deserves_kim_kardashian_smirk_pink:

It might have died in the US, but it continued In Europe as we all know it evolved into synth pop which artists like Depeche Mode and Kylie found their most successful sound as an artist in that genre and it's sub genres.  

 

Though the disco kills movement is alludes to be full of homophobia, given how it was a straight man that orchestrated the whole thing, even several gay press said it was the most homophobic thing at the time until.the treatment of Gays at the height of The AIDS epidemic was the worst of the worst.
