The Rolling Stones

The Rolling Stones' reputation is inflated, resting almost entirely on a four-year golden era ending in 1972. While 1968-1972 produced classics like 'Exile on Main St.', over 70% of their top-streamed Spotify tracks come from this period, a ratio 20% worse than the average legacy rock act. This reliance on past glory makes them less relevant than Drake, whose cultural impact remains current. Four decades of diminishing returns have stretched their legacy thin, with only one top-10 album since 1990.
