This comes as no surprise.
Despite selling almost one million records collectively this year, Drake and Future are the most illegally downloaded artists of 2015.
According to a Seat Smart study, Drake’s If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late is the most downloaded project of the year, but when it comes to daily downloads, Future’s Dirty Sprite 2 tops Drake.
Surprisingly, Taylor Swift, who’s widely popular, isn’t as affected by illegal downloading in comparison to her hip-hop peers. Besides classical, Christian, and pop music, country music is one of the least illegally downloaded genres. As you can guess, hip-hop is the most illegally downloaded genre, followed by R&B.
