BTS was the fourth highest earner of 2021 on the Money Makers global ranking! According to Billboardβs annual ranking, BTS earned a total of $38.4 million.
βMoney Makers was compiled with 2021 Luminate and Billboard Boxscore data, the RIAAβs physical and digital revenue report for 2021, and IFPI global revenue statistics. All revenue figures cited are Billboard estimates and may not equal the sum of the subcategories due to rounding and the omission of revenue categories. Global sales were extrapolated for 21 artists that ranked highest on the 2020 Money Makers list. Global artist royalties were extrapolated using U.S. revenue totals, minus 30% of international royalties in line with major-label contractual clauses for foreign distribution.β
