BTS edged out Taylor Swift to become the best-selling global artist of 2020.
The K-Pop group is the first act whose songs are not predominantly sung in English to claim the top spot on IFPI’s list.
The rest of the top-ten included Drake, Billie Eilish, Eminem, Post Malone, Ariana Grande, Juice Wrld and Justin Bieber.
Global sales, downloads and streams are all taken into account when the IFPI calculates the winner, covering the entirety of each artist’s back catalogue.
