How this is measured

2,606 attributed artists, each tied to a canonical hometown metro, with separate Billboard and UK top-ten records. Search, sort by chart, or pick a decade or year to rank artists by the score they earned in that window.

Combined blends singles with an album pillar (worldwide album sales, weighted 0.5), which is why album-era acts like Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin appear.
