Taylor Swift, The Weeknd and Noah Kahan Propel U.K. Music Sales to Record Highs in 2024
UK music sales in 2024 grew to $3 billion, surpassing the peak of the CD era in revenue and volume, thanks to hit music by Taylor Swift and Noah Kahn.
Noah Kahan ’s “Stick Season” was the year’s number one single, topping the British charts for seven weeks and selling 1.9 million equivalent units, the London-based organization reported Wednesday (Jan. 8). ERA and BPI both use Official Charts Company sales data as the basis for their reporting, although the two organizations take different approaches to measuring the vitality of the recorded music business. ERA’s figures are based on retail spending in the U.K. alongside information provided by streaming services and label trade income, whereas BPI’s analysis measures music consumption levels.
