why are you posting the entire list again?

Legend X slaying

Adele's two solid years of chart slayage

Females with multiple years: Xtina, Rihanna, Adele and Taylor.

I stan for Taylor and Adele so

I think Beyonce or Taylor will get it this year. Taylor has the 3 million she sells from October to December+her first 2 singles which are usually hits and will count for the 2014 Year-End Chart+the remainder of Red Tour (December 2013 and the 2014 dates will count for the chart).

2002: Ashanti

Leave it up.

Twice. I always laugh when people try to say she was overshadowed when clearly Billboard receipts prove otherwise.

Well D.M.F and all the xtina stans have posted this list about 5 billion times, idk if it has its own thread though

I'm just shocked that Rihanna would be #1 for 2006 when Beyoncé and Nelly Furtado had much bigger years... Her only hit that year was "SOS" and the album sold mildly.

Bey had "Check On It", "Deja Vu", the beginning of "Irreplaceable" and a huge album seller... and Nelly Furtado had the smash of the summer with "Promiscuous".

Legends all topping the list twice

The longevity

I would have thought Mimi owned this year with her Emancipation Era.

Should also be noted that Pussycat Dolls were ahead of Rihanna in 2006. The slay

SOS and Unfaithful.

Irreplaceable didn't start smashing until December, which is when the cutoff period began for 2007.

"Unfaithful" was a hit that year too.

who was the artist of the 2000s decade tho

Kelly's string of hits began at the beginning of the tracking period (December 2004) along with her massive album sales. She had a head start on Mariah, essentially.

shocked or upset?
