The pandemic didn’t stop these artists from making music and making bank (via toofab)
Post Malone is one of the only other artists besides Céline Dion who was able to make a significant amount of money touring prior to the pandemic. He brought in $12.4 million across 20 tour dates that were able to take place before the live industry shut down. Streaming also earned Post Malone $8.1 million, in part thanks to over 4 million on-demand audio streams. Additionally, he made $712,500 in sales and $2 million from publishing royalties.
Taylor Swift earned the number one spot on the 2020 Money Makers list and never even stepped foot on a stage during the year. Thanks to Taylor's ownership of the recorded masters of her two 2020 albums,"folklore" and"evermore," she was able to take home 46% of her sales and streaming royalties. Her ownership helped make her the No. 1 artist in sales and the No. 1 mover of digital albums, digital tracks, and on-demand audio streams. Overall, Taylor brought in $10.
