Zoznam najpredávanejších umelcov v USA
Toto je zoznam vrcholnej stovky napredávanejších umelcov v USA. Zoznam je založený na základe certifikácií albumov ktoré boli udelené americkou asociáciou RIAA.[1] Recording Industry Association of America sa nezaoberá priamo predajom nosičov, prideľuje iba certifikácie k ich vydaným edíciám. Preto vo výsledkoch predaja tohto zoznamu sú dané čísla k certifikáciám a skutočný (fyzický) predaj, ktorý umelci dosiahli môže byť vďaka akumulácii vyšší.
S prideľovaním certifikácii RIAA začala v roku 1958. Pre túto skutočnosť sa v tomto zozname nenachádzajú umelci ako Bing Crosby, ktorého predaj nosičov nebol v 30. až 50. rokoch 20. storočia certifikovaný. Zoznam tiež vylučuje certifikáciu albumov zaznamenaných v spolupráci s inými jedinečnými umelcami alebo ak umelci spolupracovali v rámci skupiny.
