How things will work:

I would like to instead just pick 4 artist and track their album sales for atleast 2-3 months and then start again.

Example: I make a draft pool of current artist that are dropping albums in the next 2-3 months.

Example:
Kanye
Lloyd Banks
Soulja Boy
Fabolous
J Cole

A member selects 4 artist. For the next 2-3 months I track the sales of the albums and tally the numbers up. There's a bonus if their artist debuts at #1 and goes plat.


Draft Pool:(More artist to be added later on)
Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
Taylor Swift - Speak Now
Lil Wayne - I Am Not a Human Being
Eminem - Recovery
Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday
Kings of Leon - Come Around Sundown
Katty Perry - Teenage Dream
Justin Bieber - My World 2.0
Drake - Thank Me Later
Cee Lo Green - The Lady Killer
Kid Cudi - Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager
Susan Boyle - The Gift(Remember this bitch? She did I think 600k and was on the top 1 for 1 month)
Bruce Springsteen - The Promise
Norah Jones - ...Featuring
Nelly - 5.0
Rihanna - Loud
Akon - Akonic

Yeah that's how it will mostly go by.

I'm thinking about having up to 20 spots only.

Jay-Z being second is insane he should be the most expensive artist on the list followed by Kanye West.... Actually if anything Kanye West should be number one on the list with 40 million then Jay-Z. If we are talking realistically Kanye himself have turned gold selling artist to platinum he's also a grammy winning producer with more than 3 certified classic albums. Kanye on any label equals win sort of like Tim Duncan for the Spurs.

It's up to you guys. I guess we could start off with 10 spots. I could finish up the whole rules today and we could start off by tomorrow or Monday.
