Although the usual hot music properties make the list (Taylor Swift is #1, followed by One Direction), what's interesting is the names in spots 4 through 7.
There you'll find some "classic" artists that you wouldn't expect, namely Coldplay, AC/DC, Michael Jackson and Pink Floyd.
Here's the list.
GLOBAL RECORDING ARTIST CHART 2014
1 | Taylor Swift |
2 | One Direction |
3 | Ed Sheeran |
4 | Coldplay |
5 | AC/DC |
6 | Michael Jackson |
7 | Pink Floyd |
8 | Sam Smith |
9 | Katy Perry |
10 | Beyoncé |
There are plenty of current acts that fit the bill, they're just not being discovered at the rate that they probably should be. Then again, these legacy artists are some of the best of all time and their music still endures.
