Country singer Morgan Wallen became the year’s top-selling recording artist in the United States after crossing 6 million total album units in 2025, according to Nielsen-tracked figures cited on 13 Aug. The milestone comes as Wallen also leads TouchTunes’ quarterly Artists Chart for a second straight period, reflecting the most plays across the digital-jukebox network’s 60,000 locations worldwide between April 1 and June 30. Taylor Swift continued to dominate overall catalogue sales. The pop superstar surpassed 5 million U.S. album units for 2025, becoming the first woman to reach that level this year and solidifying her position as the best-selling female artist of the Nielsen era. Cumulatively, Swift has sold 54 million physical albums in the country and amassed 71 billion on-demand streams. On streaming platforms, Swift’s 2014 hit “Style” re-entered Spotify’s global daily chart at No. 150 on 13 Aug with 1.27 million plays, underscoring enduring demand for her back catalogue even as Wallen’s new material commands jukebox and radio rotation.
