Rockers Dominate Top of Artist 100 Chart

The Artist 100 chart from Billboard is a great way to take a look at the hottest and most talked about artists and bands and this week we see that rockers have taken over! For many weeks the top of the chart has been dominated by the likes of Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, and other pop stars, but not this week! This week’s number one spot if held by Fall Out Boy!

The band is red hot right now and is joined by the likes of Imagine Dragons near the top. They’re always in the top 10 it seems like and this week they’re sitting at number four. There’s definitely great representation by the rock genre at the top of this one, but past that it’s tough sledding. The next rock band on this chart is Portugal. The Man at 38 followed by Walk the Moon at 61.

Other rockers on the Artist 100 this week include Twenty One Pilots (63), Metallica (68), Of Mice and Men (79), and Kid Rock (96).
