January 2-8: Rihanna: The Top Selling Digital Artist Of All Time
WATCH Rihanna's music videos "You Are The One," "We Found More" and more
On the chart that tracks digital sales from July 4, 2004 to January 1, 2012, Rihanna is credited with selling 47.5 million units. A part of Rihanna's success can be attributed to her volume of works. She has released six albums, beginning with 2005's "Music of the Sun," over the course of the tracking period.
Rihanna is more than 5 million sold digital tracks ahead of her closest contenders, the Black Eyed Peas, Eminem and Lady Gaga, who have each sold in the 42 million range. Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Lil Wayne, Beyonce, Kanye West, and Britney Spears round out the top 10 list.
Despite Rihanna's overall ranking, she did not place, however, on the Top Ten Selling Digital Songs or Top Ten Selling Digital Albums lists. The Black Eyed Peas and Lady Gaga have two songs each on the digital songs ranking.
