btw, Mariah has the song of two decades, the 90s, "One Sweet Day", the 00s "We Belong Together". That's really amazing.

U.S. album sales + Worldwide album sales + Billboard hits
When Billboard determine the artist of the decade, those are the main factors. Other factors could be the number of weeks their songs stayed on their chart, popularity/impact etc. However; those are the most objective parts for us.

also being honest Shakira should be higher than Beyonce and where's Riri at?
when they present her at the 08 AMAs they said that she was the female with more #1 singles this decade so I think she should be close to reach the TOP 10 where she is?? maybe #11?

lol if you're talking about Rihanna.

I think that's good work Mazen, but I don't think that's how the list will end up. I know you can't have concrete evidence of popularity, but they are going to factor in how lasting the effect of each musician's work was. They are gonna factor in awards and how long some songs peaked. For example, you didn't count how many weeks each artist had at #01. I'm sure that would move Usher and Mariah Carey up (or at least in America). I dunno. This is probably more accurate WW than in the US (which I realize is wut it was made for but still...). BTW, how high would Kelly Clarkson be?

You should count the weeks each stayed at number one yourself.
However, you can argue about artists from 4 - 10, but the top 3 and their positions are untouchable regardless.
As for Clarkson, It would be something like this..
Album sales: 9.4
Worldwide sales: 18
#1s: 2
Top 40: 9
TOTAL:
38.4
There's always next decades.
E=MC2 was one of the lowest selling ablums of her career
already
Long live to King and Queen
