I'm resolving this market, because @itsTomekK gave the other moderators permission to resolve his markets when the resolution is obvious and uncontroversial.
@Athena These stats tend to be influenced by incomprehensible automated views. Maybe someone has a popular music app which shows XXX's wiki page automatically or something
@SaviorofPlant Makes sense.
He hasn’t been in the public eye since his estate released a new album and a movie of some sort, so I was shocked that he even cracked the top 50.
In case any Manifold employees are following this, I'm getting errors when I try to bet on this market. The stack trace is:

@TimothyJohnson5c16 Might be able to fix it by buying No on XXXTentacion then Yes on the lowest probability answer, but would probably need to buy a lot of No.
I would try it if people will promise not to bet against me in the meantime....
People searching for porn with just "XXX" but just getting "XXXTentacion" due to safe search. This is supported by Pornhub being up there aswell.
As @thepurplebull mentioned, might be some page scraping algorithm related to 1., getting accidently redirected to the wikipedia page, but I'm not sure how that would happen.
@thepurplebull man that seems really fishy. nearly 15% in a single day? out of nearly 30 days of traffic?
@benshindel Right. XXXTentacion has been in the lead for over a weak but the margin has increased steadily.
@Pykess The reason XXXTentacion is #1 to begin with is likely because of some page scraping algorithm being used or some other false positive. Probably not because its actually a popular page this month, but still considered valid for now.
Update thru 2/25 :)
(it should say top 10)
@itsTomekK Yeah, something like that! :) Re: the discussion below, I was just wondering if the market title would be even more accurate with "most viewed" instead of "most popular." Splitting hairs, perhaps?
