2016 AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS TOP NOMINATED ARTISTS CHART FACTS:
- Everything Drake touches turns to chart gold. His most recent album, Views, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart (his sixth No. 1 album) and spent more weeks at No. 1 than any hip-hop album since 1991. The set has accumulated more than 2.5 billion on-demand audio streams for its songs in the U.S. according to Nielsen Music, including the monster hit “One Dance,” which ruled the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 10 weeks. “One Dance” proved to be so popular, it was crowned Billboard’s Song of the Summer for 2016.
- Pop superstar Rihanna started off 2016 with a bang – earning her second No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 with ANTI, and topping the Billboard Hot 100 with the set’s lead single, “Work,” featuring Drake. The tune marked Rihanna’s 14th No. 1 single – pushing her ahead of Michael Jackson’s 13 No. 1s. In the nearly 60-year history of the Hot 100, the only acts with more No. 1s are Mariah Carey (with 18) and The Beatles (20). Further, Rihanna followed up “Work” with two more top 10 hits on the Hot 100: her own “Needed Me” and as featured on Calvin Harris’ “This Is What You Came For.”
- Adele’s blockbuster third album, 25, exploded on the Billboard 200 chart upon its debut. In its first week on sale in the U.S., it sold a whopping 3.38 million copies: the single largest sales week on record (since Nielsen Music began electronically tracking sales in 1991). So far, the album has spent 10 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart and has sold more than 9 million copies in the U.S. Further, the Recording Industry Association of America certified the album Diamond, indicating 10 million units earned for the set – giving Adele back-to-back Diamond-certified albums, following 21. The 25 album launched three top 20-charting singles on the Billboard Hot 100. Its lead single, “Hello,” ruled the list for 10 weeks, and was followed by “When We Were Young” and the top 10 hit “Send My Love (To Your New Lover).”
- With the release of his 2015 album Purpose, already-established pop superstar Justin Bieber reached even higher levels of success, landing his first three No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100: “What Do You Mean?,” “Sorry” and “Love Yourself.” The set has sold 1.8 million copies in the U.S., according to Nielsen Music, upping his career total to 12.6 million albums sold. Bieber has placed six No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200 – the last five consecutively dating to 2011.
- Fans have become addicted to The Chainsmokers, the duo of Drew Taggart and Andrew Pall, over the past year. The pair earned its first three top 10 singles on the Billboard Hot 100: “Roses” (featuring Rozes), “Don’t Let Me Down” (featuring Daya), and the act’s first No. 1, “Closer” (featuring Halsey). All three smashes have also each spent multiple weeks at No. 1 on Billboard‘s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart.
- Beyoncé’s Lemonade album gave the superstar her sixth consecutive No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart, while its lead-off track, “Formation,” netted the diva her sweet sixteenth top 10 smash on the Billboard Hot 100. All 12 of the songs on the Lemonade album reached the top 40 of the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, including the top 10 hits “Formation” (No. 6), “Hold Up” (No. 6), “Sorry” (No. 4) and “6 Inch” (No. 10).
- R&B sensation Bryson Tiller exploded onto the scene with his debut album, TRAPSOUL. The set reached No. 2 on both the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and the R&B Albums chart. TRAPSOUL spawned three top 25 hits on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart: “Don’t” (No. 4), “Exchange” (No. 8) and “Sorry Not Sorry” (No. 24).
- Carrie Underwood won American Idol in 2005 and, since hitting Billboard‘s charts for the first time that year, has yet to slow down. Her latest album, Storyteller, debuted at No. 1 on the Top Country Albums in November 2015, marking her sixth No. 1 on the chart in as many appearances — no other artist has begun a career with six consecutive No. 1s on the chart. And, with career U.S. album sales of 16.2 million, according to Nielsen Music, she reigns as the best-selling Idol alum. She’s also notched 14 No. 1s on Hot Country Songs. With 24 overall Hot Country Songs top 10s, she’s yet to miss the chart’s top 10 with any of her official singles released to country radio.
- The world said, “hey, what’s up, hello” to Fetty Wap as his viral single “Trap Queen” ruled pop culture and shot to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100. Follow-up releases “My Way,” featuring Monty (No. 7) and “679” featuring Remy Boyz (No. 4) also ascended to the top 10, and for six straight weeks, Fetty Wap had two songs in the Hot 100’s top 10. The rapper/singer’s self-titled debut album opened at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and his achievements lifted him to become Billboard’s Top New Artist for 2015.
- R&B singer The Weeknd waged a full-fledged pop crossover thanks to his album Beauty Behind the Madness. The set debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and launched two No. 1s on the Billboard Hot 100 chart: “Can’t Feel My Face” and “The Hills.” Furthermore, when the latter song replaced the former atop the Hot 100, The Weeknd became only the 11th artist in the chart’s history to succeed himself at the summit. Meanwhile, the title track for his follow-up album Starboy, due out Nov. 25, is off to a fast start. The track, which features Daft Punk, gave The Weeknd his fifth top 10 on the Hot 100 and sourth No. 1 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.
- Twenty One Pilots, the twosome of Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun, have soared to new heights, landing their first three top five Billboard Hot 100 hits in 2016: “Stressed Out,” “Ride” and “Heathens.” The first two songs are from the pair’s 2015 album Blurryface, which became its first No. 1 on the Billboard 200 upon its debut in June 2015. The set has sold 1.1 million copies in the U.S. since its release, according to Nielsen Music. All three songs have also ruled Billboard‘s Hot Rock Songs chart for multiple weeks each.

POSEEDOR DEL RÉCORD EN LA CATEGORÍA DE ARTISTA LATINO FAVORITO:
- Enrique Iglesias domina en la categoría de Artista Latino Favorito con 7 victorias, más que cualquier otro artista latino. Esta será su octava victoria en la categoría, en caso de llevarse a casa el premio de nuevo este año.
LISTA DE LOGROS DE LOS ARTISTAS TOP NOMINADOS A LOS 2016 AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS:
- Todo lo que Drake toca se convierte en oro. Su álbum más reciente, Views, debutó en el Nº1 de la lista Billboard 200 (su sexto álbum Nº 1) y se mantuvo más semanas en el Nº1 que cualquier otro álbum de hip-hop desde 1991. Ha acumulado más de 2,5 billones de “on-demand audio streams” con sus canciones en EE.UU., según Nielsen Music, incluyendo el gran éxito “One Dance”, que lideró la lista Billboard Hot 100 durante 10 semanas. ” One Dance” ha demostrado ser tan popular, que fue coronada Canción Billboard del Verano 2016.
- La diva del pop Rihanna comenzó 2016 con el pie derecho – lograr su segundo Nº1 en el Billboard 200 con su álbum ANTI, y encabezar la lista Billboard Hot 100 con su tema “Work”, que cuenta con la colaboración de Drake. Este tema supuso para Rihanna su catorceavo Nº1 individual – situándola por delante de Michael Jackson, que logró 13 Nº1s. En los casi 60 años de historia de la lista Hot 100, los únicos artistas con más Nº1s son Mariah Carey (con 18) y The Beatles (20). Además, Rihanna continuó sus éxitos después de “Work” con dos top 10 hits en la lista Hot 100: “Needed Me” y “This Is What You Came For.”
- El tercer álbum de gran éxito de Adele, 25, reventó la lista Billboard 200 en su debut. En su primera semana a la venta en EE.UU., vendió la friolera de 3,38 millones de copias: la mayor venta semanal de la historia, desde que Nielsen Music comenzara el seguimiento eléctronico de ventas en 1991. Hasta la fecha, el álbum ha estado 10 semanas en el Nº1 de la lista Billboard 200 y ha vendido más de 9 millones de copias en EE.UU. Además, la Asociación de la Industria de Grabación Americana certificó el álbum como diamante, lo que indica la suma de 10 millones de unidades en conjunto – concediendo a Adele su segundo disco de diamante consecutivo, siguiendo a su álbum 21. El álbum 25 colocó tres sencillos en la lista Top 20 de Billboard Hot 100. Su primer sencillo, “Hello”, lideró la lista durante 10 semanas, y fue seguido por “When We Were Young” y el top 10 hit ” Send My Love (To Your New Lover).”
- Con el lanzamiento de su álbum en 2015 Purpose, la ya establecida estrella del pop Justin Bieber llegó a niveles aún más altos, aterrizando sus primeros tres sencillos en el Nº1 de la lista Billboard Hot 100: “What Do You Mean?,” “Sorry” y “Love Yourself.” En conjunto, los singles han vendido 1,8 millones de copias en EE.UU., según Nielsen Music, elevando el total de su carrera a 12,6 millones de álbumes vendidos. Bieber ha colocado seis álbumes en el Nº1 de Billboard 200, los últimos cinco de manera consecutiva desde 2011.
- Los fans se han hecho adictos a The Chainsmokers, el dúo compuesto por Drew Taggart y Andrew Pall, desde el año pasado. La pareja ganó sus tres primeros top 10 singles en Billboard Hot 100: “Roses” (con Rozes), “Do not Let Me Down” (con Daya), y el primer Nº1 del dúo, “Closer” (con la colaboración de Halsey). Los tres hits también han pasado varias semanas cada uno en el Nº1 de la lista Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs.
- El álbum Lemonade de Beyonce le concedió a la superestrella su sexto álbum Nº1 consecutivo en la lista Billboard 200, mientras que su canción “Formation”, le otorgó a la diva su dieciseisavo top 10 en la lista Billboard Hot 100. Todas las 12 canciones del álbum Lemonade alcanzaron el top 40 de la lista Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, incluyendo el top 10 “Formation” (Nº6), “Hold Up” (Nº6), “Sorry” (Nº4) y “6 Inch” (Nº10).
- La sensación de R&B Bryson Tiller irrumpió en escena en el 2015 con su álbum debut, Trapsoul. Este disco alcanzó el número 2 tanto en la lista Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, como en la lista R&B Albums. Trapsoul dio lugar a tres Top 25 en la lista Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs: ” Don’t ” (N°4), ” Exchange ” (Nº8) y ” Sorry Not Sorry ” (N°24).
- Carrie Underwood ganó American Idol en 2005 y, desde que llegó a las listas de Billboard por primera vez ese año no ha parado. Su último álbum, Storyteller, debutó en el Nº1 en la lista Top Country Albums en noviembre de 2015, marcando su sexto Nº1 en la lista con tantas aparicones – ningún otro artista ha comenzado su carrera con seis Nº1s consecutivos en la lista. Y, con ventas del álbum en Estados Unidos que alcanzaron los 16,2 millones, según Nielsen Music, se convierte en la artista de mayores ventas de American Idol. También logró 14 Nº1s en la lista Hot Country Songs. Con 24 canciones Top 10 en Hot Country Songs, siempre se ha hecho un hueco en la lista top 10 con todos sus singles oficiales lanzados en la radio country.
- El mundo dijo “hey, what’s up, hello” a Fetty Wap en 2015 cuando su pegadizo tema “Trap Queen” lideró la cultura pop y alcanzó el Nº2 en la lista Billboard Hot 100. Los hits que le siguieron, “My Way” con Monty (Nº7) y “679”, con Remy Boyz (Nº4) también ascendieron a los top 10, y durante seis semanas consecutivas, Fetty Wap tenía dos canciones en el top 10. El álbum debut del rapero/cantante alcanzó el Nº1 en Billboard 200 en su lanzamiento, y sus logros le llevaron a convertirse en Billboard’s Top New Artist en 2015.
- El cantante de R&B, The Weeknd, llevó a cabo un exitoso crossover pop en 2015 gracias a su álbum Beauty Behind the Madness. Debutó en el Nº1 en Billboard 200 y lanzó dos Nº1s en la lista Billboard Hot 100: “Can’t Feel My Face” and “The Hills.” Además, cuando esta última canción sustituyó a la anterior en lo más alto de lista Hot 100, The Weeknd se convirtió en el artista número 11 en la historia de la lista en sucederse a sí mismo en la cumbre. Mientras tanto, la canción homónima de su siguiente álbum Starboy, que se lanzará el 25 de noviembre, ha tenido un inició muy exitoso. La canción, que cuenta con la colaboración de Daft Punk, dio a The Weeknd su éxito número 21 en colocarse en el top 40 de la lista Hot 100.
- Twenty One Pilots, la pareja compuesta por Tyler Joseph y Josh Dun, han llegado a lo más alto al aterrizar sus tres primeros top cinco éxitos en Billboard Hot 100 en 2016: “Stressed Out,” “Ride” y “Heathens.” Las dos primeras canciones son del álbum de 2015, Blurryface, que se convirtió en su primer número 1 en Billboard 200 en su debut en junio de 2015. El conjunto ha vendido 1,1 millones de copias en EE.UU. desde su lanzamiento, según Nielsen Music. Las tres canciones también han liderado la lista Billboard’s Hot Rock Songs durante varias semanas cada una.
