Local and Global need to be dropped. Those terms only apply to artists like Tiziano or Utada (no offense Kword -- at least they outsell Fridge in a single territory).
We should rank Urban acts according to starpower.
Megastars: Drake, JT
Stars: Kendrick
Fads: Robin Thicke, BoB
Neverweres (at least so far): Miguel, Frank
Understood?
Even though Justin is above Drake but other than that I agree.
Major props to Tayloose (yes I'm **** shaming her) for putting out full on pop albums (like, Selena Gomez level Radio Disney pop) and getting away with calling them Country
Joan isn't rly all that special musically, like all 3 Trashe mixtapes render her totally obsolete as of right now.
But ay what a BEAUTY, and am proud of her 2 for the exceptional performance thus far she's put up on the iTunes album chart.

Meaningless things like Grammys, Forbes, critical acclaim, "beauty" and "star power" need to dropped before we stop considering an artist's globalness.
