Beyonc is bigger,

debatable. But she is a has-been now

Billie eilish is bigger,

lmao no

Cardi B is bigger,

where did you get this idea?

Tswift is still riding off the same bunch of fans, shes not making new ones anymore.

true. Its not like established artists expand their fandoms after more than a decade. How many new Justin Timberlake fans are there?

You guys think all her fans from 2004 are who bought Folklore and made it #1 album of the year and making her the highest paid artist of the year?
No new fans?

Probably at least some but that's because of his work on SNL.

And for what it's worth his fan pool definitely increased since he's shook off his BB associations.

Biggest name, sure.
Best though? Nah.

Rina Sawamaya, Charli XCX, Hayley Williams, Marina, Doja Cat, Olivia Rodrigo, Lil Nas X, Perfume, etc. are all much better.

That's even being fair to Swift by not mentioning Carly Rae Jepsen.

Exactly. I wouldn't have called myself a fan before 2020 tbh.
I admit a young lady may have been involved in changing my mind but I generally liked her new stuff.

Who makes the best music is not an argument.

Someone can say Soken Lahee is the best and beats all those scrubs you just listed.

I mean, sure, but it isn't even a relevant comparison in your example.

Within the sphere of pop music, those artists are miles ahead of Swift.

This is what's known as an opinion.

All the folks you mentioned added together don't add up to the weight Swift throws around when she endorses something.

And Carly Rae Jepsen is a literally who? One hit wonder. More like Call her never lmao.

Charli XCX has done more for pop in recent years (alongside SOPHIE - R.I.P.) than Swift has ever done.

Carly has released 2 critically acclaimed albums (4 if you count the B-sids releases for those albums too) since Call Me Maybe was a cultural phenom. She might not pull the same weight Swift does, but claiming she's a nobody is hilarious.

All your posts here do is show that you are completely untucking qualified to comment on pop music.

Taylor peaked a while back and has shown notable decline in the last few years. When she dropped 1989 in 2014, she was definitely on top, but things have subsided ever since. She's still big, but not the biggest.

Not sure this has much meaning when Justin Beiber tops spotify at #1 most of the time.
Also, I guess most people actually bought her album since she had the #1 selling album for 2020. Kinda don't need to stream something you own.

I mean, more people stream their music by far these days than actually buying albums. Album sales is a weak merit to go by in 2021. Streaming is by far the best way to measure an artists CURRENT popularity, and between Eminem and Swift, that is very close. I mean, of the last 10 singles each artist put out, both had like 8/10 of them in the top 40.

If you're measuring worldwide metrics you have to go by sales. Many parts of the world do not really support streaming as well as the USA does. If it's just USA then yeah streaming makes the most sense.

It hit 10 million in 2016, so it took 2 years.
Reputation has been out for 4, and it's only sold 4 million.
Lover has been out for 2, and it's only sold 3 million.
And lol no way Folklore and Evermore will be at 10 million next year.

She peaked in 1989, nothing wrong with that. Novelty wears off.

reputation was a bad album, IMO.

lover was good but it was no 1989.

folklore and evermore seem too niche, though theyre good, its as if she did indie films instead of Hollywood with those 2 records.
