DiscoHeaven23 35,007 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I've compiled a list of every week an artist spent in the top 10 in 2012. I plan to do this for each year this decade and merge the data to see which artist has had the most weeks in the top 10 this decade so far. Every song counts as a week. Therefore, if an artist has 2 songs in the top 10, it counts as 2 weeks. I think that's fair. The list contains EVERY artist who was in the Top 10 during the Billboard year of 2012, including feature artists. There's an overall list, a lead list and a feature list. -I will NEVER understand how Flo Rida's songs perform so well. Is he the head of the Illuminati? OVERALL WEEKS Flo Rida: 41 Maroon 5: 37 fun.: 36 Rihanna: 35 Katy Perry: 33 Nicki Minaj: 33 Carly Rae Jepsen: 31 Wiz Khalifa: 26 Adele: 25 Gotye: 24 Justin Bieber: 24 Kimbra: 24 David Guetta: 23 Janelle Monae: 22 Sia: 22 Bruno Mars: 20 LMFAO: 17 Calvin Harris: 16 Kelly Clarkson: 16 Taylor Swift: 15 The Wanted: 15 Ellie Goulding: 14 One Direction: 14 Big Sean: 13 P!nk: 11 Usher: 11 Alex Clare: 10 Jay-Z: 8 Kanye: 8 Psy: 8 Owl City: 7 Christina Aguilera: 5 Kesha: 5 Snoop Dogg: 5 Adam Levine: 4 Drake: 4 Goonrock: 4 Gym Class Heroes: 4 Lauren Bennett: 4 Ne-Yo: 4 Tyga: 4 Jessie J: 3 Neon Tress: 3 Phillip Phillips: 3 Chris Brown: 2 Lily Allen: 2 Train: 2 Whitney Houston: 2 T-Pain: 2 Jason Mraz: 1 Madonna: 1 M.I.A.: 1 WEEKS AS LEAD Flo Rida: 41 Maroon 5: 37 fun.: 36 Katy Pery: 33 Carly Rae Jepsen: 31 Rihanna: 31 Adele: 25 Gotye: 24 Justin Bieber: 24 David Guetta: 23 Nicki Minaj: 21 LMFAO: 17 Kelly Clarkson: 16 Bruno Mars: 15 Taylor Swift: 15 The Wanted: 15 Ellie Goulding: 14 One Direction: 14 P!nk: 11 Alex Clare: 10 Kanye West: 8 Jay-Z: 8 Psy: 8 Owl City: 7 Usher: 6 Kesha: 5 Snoop Dogg: 5 Wiz Khalifa: 5 Drake: 4 Gym Class Heroes: 4 Ne-Yo: 4 Tyga: 4 Jessie J: 3 Neon Trees: 3 Phillip Phillips: 3 Chris Brown: 2 T-Pain: 2 Train: 2 Whitney Houston: 2 Big Sean: 1 Jason Mraz: 1 Madonna: 1 WEEKS AS FEATURE Kimbra: 24 Janelle Monae: 22 Sia: 22 Wiz Khalifa: 21 Calvin Harris: 16 Big Sean: 12 Nicki Minaj: 12 Bruno Mars: 5 Christina Aguilera: 5 Usher: 5 Adam Levine: 4 GoonRock: 4 Lauren Bennett: 4 Rihanna: 4 Lily Allen: 2 M.I.A.: 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
