Andrea Bocelli Earns #1 On Billboard Artist 100 Chart

Bocelli officially ranks as the top artist in America.

As he scores his first #1 album on the Billboard 200, Andrea Bocelli makes his first trip to #1 on the Billboard Artist 100.

The chart ranks the top artists in America based on factors like album sales, song consumption and social media activity.

Bocelli re-enters the chart — and scores #1 — in conjunction with the release of his new album “Si.” As reported earlier this weekend, the album debuts at #1 on the Billboard Top Album Sales and Billboard 200 charts. It marks his first #1 album in the US.

Lady Gaga holds at #2 on this week’s Artist 100, while Drake climbs three places to #3. Post Malone (#4, -1) and Cardi B (#5, +6) complete the Top 5.

Imagine Dragons (#6, +4), Bradley Cooper (#7, +2), Juice WRLD (#8, =), Halsey (#9, +6), and Ariana Grande (#10, +3) also appear in the Top 10.
