Bee Gees – 120 Million

The Bee Gees is the result of three brothers who know a thing or two about music and can carry a tune. The pop band was created in 1958 and for most of their decades of recording music they hit success, notably during the late 1960s and early 1970s, as the disco music era started to emerge. With Robin’s clear vibrato lead vocals and Barry’s R&B falsetto, the group sang highly recognisable three-part (tight) harmonies. The Bee Gees have sold more than 220 million records worldwide! Nicely done brothers.

Jay Z – 100 Million

Wherever his wife goes, Jay Z fabulously follows right behind, even if its on “the greatest selling music artists of all time” list. But who are we kidding, we can’t compare Beyonce’s music talents to Jay Z’s and vice versa, such gifted individuals. Jay Z (Shawn Corey Carter) is both an American rapper and businessman who’s received over 21 Grammy Awards for his music. In 2006 MTV ranked him as the “greatest MC of all time” and Rolling Stone ranked “Reasonable Doubt”, “The Blueprint”, and “The Black Album” among the 500 greatest albums ever. Jay Z remains to be one of the most successful, most well-liked, and legendary hip-hop artists to ever walk this plant.
