The BRIT Billion Award celebrates The Rolling Stones’ incredible career spanning seven decades.

Last month they celebrated their 14th UK number one album with Hackney Diamonds, their first album of new material in 18 years.

Reaching the one billion career streams mark in the UK, as calculated by the Official Charts Company, the British band became the longest active artist to receive the prestigious award, with their most streamed hits including Paint It, Black and Start Me Up.

With 14 British number 1 albums and eight British number 1 singles, the Rolling Stones have undeniably been one of the defining voices of British music for over 60 years.

Hackney Diamonds is their first album of original material since 2005’s A Bigger Bang and features an incredible array of guest artists including Elton John, Lady Gaga, Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder and Bill Wyman.

The Rolling Stones are the 25th artist to receive a BRIT Billion Award, which was officially launched in May 2023.

Dr. Jo Twist OBE, BPI chief executive, said: “Few artists have transcended generational barriers as well as the Rolling Stones.” Their iconic songs and albums define the era, but the band remain as modern as ever.

“The BPI is delighted to honor them with a BRIT Billion Award, which highlights both the timeless appeal of their music and the extent to which they are now reaching a new wave of fans thanks to streaming.”

While most famous faces amass deep pockets and healthy bank accounts over the course of their careers, not many can walk away with a billion dollars.

At the top of the rich list are the Rolling Stones, who were the first band in Great Britain to gross $1 billion.

The legendary band has struck gold with electrifying live performances and over 250 million album sales.

Their concerts have brought in a staggering $2 billion in ticket sales over the years, and in 2021, fans spent $130.9 million on just 14 performances during the No Filter tour in the US

Although the remaining members, consisting of Ronnie Wood (76), Mick Jagger (80) and Keith Richards (79), are now playing fewer shows, their loyal fans are happy to hand over tickets for top prices as they are generally older and have higher income have disposable income and the Stones can now make more money at the box office.
