The Artist 100 looks at the very best artists and bands at this current moment and to reach the top spot is quite the honor. It looks at all things like sales, radio play and social media activity to determine the very best in music.
Country music is always great, but these other genres are dominating the top of this chart this week. The highest charting artist from the country music genre is Sam Hunt at 13! We demand a recount because we know there should be someone higher than that!
Others on the chart include Chris Stapleton (34), Luke Combs (43), Keith Urban (50), Lady Antebellum (53), Jon Pardi (54), Brett Young (57), Thomas Rhett (63), Florida Georgia Line (65), Old Dominion (68), Dustin Lynch (75), Zac Brown Band (83), Blake Shelton (84), Luke Bryan (86), Billy Currington (87), Jason Aldean (90), Cole Swindell (93), Sara Evans (94) and Maren Morris (98).
