That would indeed be very interesting. But I don't think it's doable for 2020. I won't rule out a list like this for 2021 though since our artist trac...

It's a bit too late now, but I'll make sure to make a top 10 or so next year.

Technically some of the Indian artists here are legacy acts, Lata Mangeshkar for example at 10th is 91 years old. Among western ones though it's Micha...

Twice is ahead of both for most likely.

I agree with Thomas here, while AC/DC sold a lot in the US they were / are massive elsewhere too, hell their last albums have sold even more in German...

They probably won't, but they're getting closer every day

The album sales includes digital album sales too

They're just now shown in the breakdown but they are taken into account. Africa + Middle Eastern sales should be around 1.6m

Where is it stated she sold nothing in Africa exactly? 😉

Our weighting isn't necessarily the same as what labels use. I'm sure most label claims are based on some legit data. Hard data from their financial r...

Sadly no. But if you give me a specific year can I give you a list of the top releases we've studied + some rough estimates for the ones we haven't ye...

It's not that they're weak there, he's among the very top international sellers in Japan. It's just that his sales in places like China, India, Taiwan...

Can't say too much about MJ since we haven't updated his sales. Digital single sales are definitely not as big as they used to be with the exception...

You need to consider these releases sell so well cause they're download exclusives there for a long time. They get close to 0 streams in China due to ...

Hi Minie! He didn't have enough followers for the top 100 when I wrote the article, right now he's sitting at 566,000 so he might be if I update it i...

One problem with point systems is that they don't account for market size. Way more albums were sold at Queen's peak than Dylan's. A big part of Queen...

Although I do agree BTS boundaries probably are bigger it's wrong to say the Beatles didn't have any. British acts never really did too well in the US...

Hello, nice to see fellow Norwegians here 🙂 The figure for Sweden might refer to the old "single equivalent units" which were commonly used back the...

Lots of albums got Japanese deluxe versions and such and some are titled in Japanese. these sometimes get "prioritised" first by the tool it seems. It...

You're correct. there were many international albums released there in the past, although based on the info we have they sold very little in compariso...
