Not THAT many people listen to ariana grande and taylor swift, those artists are shilled by big corporations, they get huge gigs and YES they have lots of fans because they sound everywhere in mainstream media
But in the real world, artiat from the early 2010 and even late 90 are still way more popular. The industry right now is dying and that's a well known fact, most people are listening to old music (millennials and gen x) and gen alpha and zoomers listen to "internet music", not mainstream artists,
Taylor swift is NOT the most popular artist no matter what rolling stone, pichfork and every mainstream magazine says, people know their names because they're shilled everywhere, but not many cares about the actual music and those numbers these platforms share are all fake. I've seen the absolute state of record companies and they're fucked
