MJ Chart Data 2020 Wrapped
I think we can all agree that it has not been the best year, but I also think we can all find little positive things that have happened. For example, I started writing for you guys on MJVibe & also started MJChartData account on Twitter π
Today is not the usual chart updates. Today Iβm going to wrap up 2020 and I think itβs going to be very impressive.

Michael Jackson is currently the 84th most popular artist on Spotify with just over 24 million monthly listeners.
As well as, Michael selling over 100,000 pure copies of Thriller in the US in 2020 alone;
Number Ones remaining the longest charting album released this century and spending total of 474 weeks on the UK charts; countless certifications around the world; never actually leaving charts all year round; owning both Halloween & Christmas seasons; radio stations playing his music again & Forbes naming him highest paid dead celebrity for 11 years in a row. He also remains the most successful artist of all time, so no, heβs nowhere near being cancelled & he never will be.
Have a Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year.
Until next time π
P.S. Donβt forget to stream the Jackson 5 Christmas album as itβs doing really well on the charts.
