T-swift dominates the Billboard Hot 100

Taylor Swift produced her newest album “Midnights” at the stop of Oct 2022 and for the week of November 5th, 2022 it held all of the Top 10 places on the Billboard Incredibly hot 100. This appeared pretty impressive but we believed it would make sense to go to the knowledge and see just how amazing. The good thing is, there is a Python bundle to pull facts from the Billboard charts and making use of Domo’s Jupyter Notebook integration we can quickly pull that data into Domo (I will observe that this operate was my initially time creating python code from scratch on my very own and I am really happy that I concluded this get the job done with just a very little little bit of code overview/revision from my team). For this assessment, we pulled the Billboard Warm 100 tracks by week back to 1982 so we have 40 many years of historical past. The Jupyter code for getting this information can be uncovered in this article if you want to check out it your self.

Let’s get to that data. Not incredibly, this is the initially time a one artist had all Prime 10 tracks for a single 7 days as we can see in the down below chart. Drake arrived close in September 2021 with 9 of the Prime 10 tunes and 7 for a person week in July 2018. Interestingly, if I adjust the examination to seem at the Top rated 20, both Taylor Swift and Drake had one week with 14 music in the Top 20 (shout out to the new Domo variables function which makes it possible for for this fast adjustment in the charts down below) .

Probably just one week is too quick of a timeframe to take a look at and I also wondered if this concentration of Leading 10 songs is a a lot more present day phenomenon of the streaming period. The chart under reveals the number of artists with a sure variety of Leading 10 tunes in a specified 12 months (instead than just just one week). You can see that it is only in recent years that artists have had more than 6 tracks in the Leading 10 throughout a offered yr (the initially time staying in 2018). Prior to that it was rather unusual to have a number of tunes in the Prime 10 in 1 12 months.

You can carry on to investigate the 40 yrs of Billboard details down below the facts will update weekly) and use the variables to adjust which metric or ranges to study. A person final interesting tidbit that stunned me a bit when looking at the number of special music on the Hot 100, the most unique music by an artist goes to the cast of Glee with 206 distinct music appearing on the Incredibly hot 100. Granted you could argue these are handles of other artists but I nevertheless discovered that to be rather a shock. Have exciting discovering the facts.
