INTRODUCING HITS’ TOP 100 WEEKLY MARKETSHARE CHART

Today we’re launching a new chart—one unlike anything you’ve seen before in both content and appearance.

Our Top 100 Weekly Marketshare Chart, which is determined by the number and placement of each label’s releases in that week’s Top 100, shows the relative performance of the major labels by percentage of the top tier of the overall business.

Simply and clearly, the new chart reveals the labels making the biggest impact during that particular seven-day period—meaning the order of battle could differ dramatically from one week to the next, particularly when superstar releases hit the market.

The blue vertical bars in the front row of the 3D chart represent total activity, while the orange bars behind them reflect streaming-equivalent albums. In short, it’s a vivid snapshot of that week’s competition for the ears of America.

Got it? Now, let’s take a first look…
