We all know the star power of Taylor Swift and how the musician has basically become a behemoth unlike anything else in recent years. This has been confirmed once again by the IFPI, which has revealed who has gone down in history as the best-selling musician of 2024.
Unsurprisingly, Swift topped this list and secured the title as the world’s best-selling musician of 2024. The truly stunning thing about this is that Swift has now held this record for three years on the run, meaning she has in fact been an indomitable force since 2022, and it is also the fifth time she has won the award, as she also won it in 2014 and 2019. That’s five wins in the past 10 years….
It was the album The Tortured Poets Department that secured this record for Swift, which we are told reached the heights thanks to The Eras Tour that catapulted the album to great heights on streaming platforms.
As for who else came close to Swift in 2024, Drake was second, Seventeen third, Billie Eilish fourth and then Stray Kids, Zach Bryan, The Weeknd, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and Sabrina Carpenter fifth through tenth, respectively.
