A music artist that can't sell enough albums to reach #1 because of their lack of promotion or large fan base, but their singles go straight to #1 because either they are good i.e. Rolling in the Deep by Adele or are generic trash like Katy Perry's Last Friday Night.
Katy Perry, Rihanna, Kesha, Pitbull are all singles artists because they can't sell an album to save their lives.
