HONESTLY I'm looking at chartmasters right now and I know Taylor is going to pass Madonna and Queen within a decade and maybe Elvis and MJ shortly after but....I'm starting to wonder if Taylor might even pass The Beatles at this point?

Right now Taylor is in 15th place but in modest projections a year from now she will be in 9th place place above Eminem and pushing elton out of the top 10....at 35 years old.
It's like all her damn albums are charting all of the fvcking time! (who else has that ever happened to consistently for YEARS??) Streaming or not who else has taken the entire top 10 on Billboard to themself?!?
20 years from now I could see Taylor's worst selling album being "Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version)" but it still being a #1 album that sold 10 million worldwide over the YEARS like her albums are all tending to do more and more! We don't even know if Midnights is Taylor's commercial peak yet! It certainly sold 10 million worldwide faster than 1989 or Folklore did though. The Tortured Poets Department could easily be bigger than Midnights!
I can kind of picture Taylor 20 years from now at age 54 being the best selling artist of all time in the world and having like 25 #1 songs on the hot 100 and probably 25 Billion in the bank to match.
I also wouldn't be surprised if Taylor writes and produces an album all on her own and wins AOTY either.
The other artists will have all gotten there in a shorter period with less albums but Taylor but could easily do it with her consistency.
