A Fast track of the Best Selling music artists from 1969 to 2019 has been hugely shared on social media by Michael Jackson’s fans.
The reason is that Michael Jackson mostly top the list from 1980 to 1997, nearly 2 decades!
While the visual is really interesting to watch and you can see artists going right up and right down within a year, this is a really interesting video as showing Michael Jackson being the only artists staying so long to the top of the list. I guess this is why he is the King of Pop!

The video is based on data from the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America), the IFPI (International Federation of the Phonographic Industry) and various record labels and also the animation takes into account both physical and digital sales as well as streams.
