T-swift dominates the Billboard Hot 100

Taylor Swift unveiled her most current album “Midnights” at the conclude of Oct 2022 and for the week of November 5th, 2022 it held all of the Top rated 10 places on the Billboard Hot 100. This seemed rather spectacular but we thought it would make perception to go to the facts and see just how spectacular. Luckily, there is a Python package deal to pull information from the Billboard charts and utilizing Domo’s Jupyter Notebook integration we can conveniently pull that info into Domo (I will take note that this work was my 1st time crafting python code from scratch on my personal and I am fairly proud that I accomplished this operate with just a minor bit of code review/revision from my crew). For this examination, we pulled the Billboard Very hot 100 songs by 7 days again to 1982 so we have 40 decades of background. The Jupyter code for getting this facts can be located right here if you want to try it you.

Let us get to that information. Not shockingly, this is the initially time a one artist experienced all Prime 10 tracks for a single 7 days as we can see in the down below chart. Drake came shut in September 2021 with 9 of the Top 10 music and 7 for 1 7 days in July 2018. Apparently, if I modify the investigation to glance at the Top 20, equally Taylor Swift and Drake experienced one particular 7 days with 14 songs in the Leading 20 (shout out to the new Domo variables attribute which enables for this speedy adjustment in the charts down below) .

Maybe a single week is far too quick of a timeframe to analyze and I also wondered if this concentration of Top 10 music is a additional contemporary phenomenon of the streaming period. The chart underneath displays the range of artists with a specified range of Top rated 10 tracks in a given yr (relatively than just 1 7 days). You can see that it is only in current many years that artists have had extra than 6 songs in the Major 10 across a presented yr (the initially time being in 2018). Prior to that it was pretty uncommon to have multiple tracks in the Leading 10 in one particular yr.

You can continue to take a look at the 40 yrs of Billboard knowledge underneath the info will update weekly) and use the variables to alter which metric or ranges to study. A person last exciting tidbit that shocked me a bit when hunting at the range of exceptional songs on the Very hot 100, the most special songs by an artist goes to the cast of Glee with 206 different tunes appearing on the Very hot 100. Granted you could argue these are handles of other artists but I nevertheless uncovered that to be rather a shock. Have enjoyment discovering the details.
