David is a rock and roll legend and appeals to that same generation that listen to the Beatles, Rod Stewart ect
Not only that... He's the reason the world knows of Iggy Pop.

!!! I was listening to Bowie when I was like 13/14. I learned about him from the band Queen. He really does appeal to all generations. Can't say that about Nat'.

I don't think it is "all of a sudden". This is typically what happens when someone who actually made some contributions to music or was a major talent passes.

For instance, Natalie Cole didn't see a surge in sales after her passing and didn't get a #1 album either. David Bowie on the other hand is a legend who did this in 5 different decades. Their purchasing after their passing is a reminder of what they have been hearing and loving over the years but may not have actually purchased. Also the young kids may have only been introduced after the passing and encourages them to purchase also.

I agree with this.

Not all celeb see a surge in sales. It's not a surprise to me that David Bowie did though. He's one of the legend/icon artists and his death may be an introduction to this generation. Not many artists can leave a legacy like that behind.
a 9 time Grammy award winning artist
who could go toe to toe with Whitney and Aretha
should have been able to see that surge in sales though
why y'all acting like this woman is some flop in comparison?
:uhh:

Who are you talking about?  :plzstop: Please let me know.
Natalie Cole
Why are you hating? Did she shade Kellz?
:plzstop:
She hates everyone except that damn child molester.

Right!!! David has already begun work on the follow up to Blackstar before he died. He already wrote and demoed songs for it.

I don't think it's got anything to do with race
If David and Whitney died and both had albums out, I think she would have bested him tbh
Natalie Cole just wasn't that popular, despite her success

Oh white! black!

Race doesn't have shit to do with this :plzstop: Bitter asses

Go check out some of her stuff.And although you seem very knowledgeable about music, you may be surprised at her catalog.
