Here are the 20 acts that have sold the most albums since the first week of January 2000. The number immediately after the artist's name is the total number of albums that the artist has sold in this decade. I also identify when the artist first cracked The Billboard 200, and the title of their best-selling album since January 2000.
1. Eminem
2. The Beatles,
3. Tim McGraw
4. Toby Keith
5. Britney Spears, 22,937,000. First charted: 1999. Spears, 27, is the youngest artist on this list, edging out Josh Groban by one year. She is also #1 female artist in this decade. Her 2000 album, Oops!...I Did It Again, is her best-seller of the decade. It has sold 9,183,000 copies. Spears was the #108 album-selling act of the ‘90s.
6. Kenny Chesney
7. Nelly
8. Linkin Park
9. Creed
10. Jay-Z
If Britney had debuted her first album “BOMT” in 2000, not in 1999, then she would have been # 1 ( with around 38,000,000 albums sold)… but hey, #5 is great!!
