I thought it would be fun to stack up the big artists of the past decade or so based on their best-selling digital single. This accounts for all sales on digital outlets like iTunes and Amazon. It reminds me of a lot of overplayed tracks but that is the point, I guess! This is a bit of a guessing game for you with options before the answer. The genres are all taken from official music journals so don't yell at me if you think 'My Humps' is more pop than hip hop!
