Post Malone

Today, we're taking a dive into the most viewed music videos on YouTube.

YouTube is arguably the greatest music video platform to date. It doesn't matter whether you're and up-and-coming artist or a certified star (like many artists from today's list); everybody has equal access. It just so happens that the tier of artists we'll be highlighting today is largely outshining their competition.

There's a massive gap between the upper echelon of artists and the rest of the music community, as far as YouTube views goes. This piece will highlight the apex of that upper echelon, and we'll be covering some classics.
