No other name is bigger, more influential, more awarded or anything else than her's.
Hate her or like her, facts are facts.

I miss when Kanye was just a meme. "Imma let you finish..." and having Obama call him a jackass.

The dude said George Bush didn't care about Black people, then turned around and supported Trump? A man who absolutely hates Black people?

Should have stayed a meme.

Oh, Taylor Swift is probably one of the only times I've actually enjoyed country music. I can respect that.

Beyonce (and Kanye) are both past their prime. Taylor Swift is at peak and she's essentially what Madonna was during the 90s now.

LMAO at thinking Billie Ellish and Cardi B are bigger.

Swift got the potential to be bigger than even peak Barbara Streisand.

Madonna barely has any legacy and only hacks like her so not a great comparison lol. Its why she aint made anything of note in two decades outside of kissing Britney Spears at an awards show. I guess youre saying T swift is about to make out with Billie eilish at an awards show?

But Swift continues to reinvent herself and shatters records everytime she did.

Her last album Folklore was best selling and shattered records during pandemic when most other artists were too stressed to even make a single new song and yet she came out with multiple albums.

In addition her message of female positivity resonates with our current culture such as her megahit The Man.

I don't know what you mean by legacy here, but I'd definitely be interested in front row seats to Taylor making out with Billie.

Sheeran was the top grossing tour act of 2018, outgrossing Swift, Beyonce, and Pink.

They are big sure, but that is a recent thing. If they stay big like she has for 10 more years than maybe they beat her. Boybands usually don't last that long however.

-sell-half-a-million-copies-of-one-album-in-2020/

Its no surprise that Taylor Swifts new album Folklore, itself a shocking release that was only announced hours before it was made available to stream and buy, debuts at No. 1 on this weeks Billboard 200. The singer remains perhaps the most powerful pop star on the planet (in many respects), and she can still move more copies of a just-released full-length than most artists can only dream of.
As Folklore opens at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with the largest debut of 2020 (just under 850,000 equivalent units), the set instantly becomes the bestselling title of the year after just seven days of availability.
In its first week, Folklore was snapped up by 615,000 super fans. That sum is easily enough to help the set pass the title which previously reigned as the bestselling album of 2020 by a sizable margin.
Before Folklore appeared out of nowhere, BTS claimed the honor of having released the bestselling album of the year, as their latest chart-topper Map of the Soul: 7 stood apart from every other release thanks to its impressive sales count. That title, the groups fourth to run the show in America, has sold 574,000 copies since being released back in February.


https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/taylor-swift-folklore-2020-biggest-album-1102709/

We already declared Taylor Swifts Folklore to be the Best Album of 2020. But until now, we had yet to hear from the numbers. Now, the numbers have spoken, the data has assembled into integers and decimal points, and the answer is in: Folklore is the biggest album of 2020, too.


Just in case you failed to get the point of these articles,

she beat everyone else including BTS who had infact released new songs and album in 2020.

There's enough arguments to be made that this is the case yes. Amazon, Disney and Netflix have all paid big bucks to her to give exclusive content to her platform. She has made Spotify, Universal and Apple all change policies to cater to her.

She's the Thanos of the music industry.

Yea, you don't want to piss off the person whose album is #1 for the year and other album is also top 10 still.

Also, I hear her songs from all over her career in all sorts of stores and restaurants. This is true for many artists with their new content but the thing is...
this is how it has been since 2004.
Her songs being played with priority both new and old for 17 years straight.

Yeah. The last artist that bent people this way was Barbara Streisand who forced cable companies to sign a contract agreeing to keep the commercials at a low volume in order to get broadcast rights to her concert. Not many people got this kind of pull in history. Michael Jackson did stuff like this as well.

Pretty sure even Eminem is still bigger these days considering he has to do zero advertising and all his albums shot to #1.

Even going by Spotify which skews younger, Eminem has 41.59m compared to Taylors 41.54m, which while really damn close would lead me to believe Eminem is more popular among all groups.

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.

Surprise Surprise, Taylor Swift Was 2020's Highest Earning Musician

https://www.businessinsider.com/taylor-swift-highest-paid-artist-2020-no-ticket-sales-billboard-2021-7


Swift made Billboard history by earning the #1 spot on the top-paid musician rankings without any concert revenue. Earnings from the artist's 2020 albums "Folklore" and "Evermore" amounted to $20.6 million in sales and streaming royalties, pushing her to the top of the list.

I think there are a few musicians that meet or even exceed Taylor Swift in certain categories. Swift's strength is that she tends to succeed in almost all of them. Streaming, album sales, tour sales, awards etc. Then she's a business powerhouse on top of that and has been around in the mainstream for over a decade while still hanging high.
