I didn't really know where to put this, so if someone knows a better spot, by all means move it. It's a lot of fun to watch.

I didn't realize how much Eminem dominated the early 00's. Then you see Lil Wayne and Jay Z follow that and Rihanna's like "scuze me mother fckers, comin through". lol

And freaking Garth Brooks in the 90s. Dude's ahead of Elvis Presley as the biggest selling solo artist in the USA with ~150 MILLION!! albums.

Anyone care to guess with artist/band that showed up in that list never had a #1 album their entire career?

Based on this video, popular music never recovered from the mid-80s, completely self-immolated in the mid-90s, turned into a game of hot potato between 15ish mediocre artists in the mid-oughts, and stayed there.

Did you notice the way the numbers for all the artists skyrocketed in the last decade? Drake was murdering Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley.
