I don't think I witnessed a takeover like that Black Eyed Peas era. I don't remember 21 being nearly as big as it's sales are.
But Black Eyed Peas...
"I Gotta Feeling" and "Boom Boom Pow" were being played DAILY that Summer. Then "Meet Me Halfway", "I'mma Be", and "Rock that Body" each took rounds destroying the radio.
I Gotta Feeling is amazing.
50% of Pop hits since have been failed attempts at recreating its magic.
Same way Someone Like U jump-started piano ballads on radio etc.

RITD, SLY and SFTTR were bigger radio hits than all of those songs. The airplay numbers don't lie.

Yeah, but Black Eyed Peas were inescapable.
You went to a friend's party you heard them, on the radio you heard them, everyone had them on their iPod.
During Adele's slayage you never heard anyone going around stanning for Adele and claiming her. You heard her on the radio, but it was never like you went to a Club heard her (I wouldn't know but yeah still), went to a friend's and heard her, etc.
