Hot R&B / hip-hop songs
Hot R & B / Hip-Hop Songs is a music charts consolidated statement in the United States , the week by the magazine Billboard is published. This hit list is one of the most popular in the United States. The ranking is based on a measurement of radio - airplay , sales data and music streaming activities. Originally 100 singles were listed, but in October 2012 the hit list was reduced to 50.
The Hit List is used to track the success of popular pieces of music in urban or primarily African American venues. Over the years it was dominated by jazz , rhythm and blues , doo wop , rock 'n' roll , soul and funk , today contemporary R&B and hip hop predominate. Since its inception, the Hit List has changed its name several times to accurately reflect the music industry at the time.
history
Between 1948 and 1955, two separate chart lists were published for bestseller and juke box singles, and in 1955 a third category was added, the jockeys hit list, which was based on radio airplay. These three hit lists were combined into a single R&B hit list in October 1958.
From November 30, 1963 to January 23, 1965 there were no singles charts. The charts were shut down in late 1963 when Billboard deemed it unnecessary given the rise of Motown . The hit list was resumed with the January 30, 1965 issue as "Hot Rhythm and Blues Singles" when differences in musical tastes between the two audiences, caused in part by the British Invasion of 1964, were considered sufficient to reintroduce them .
As of August 23, 1969, rhythm and blues were replaced by "Soul" and the table was renamed "Best Selling Soul Singles". The name change came about through an editorial decision by Billboard, according to which the term "soul" can be traced back to the "broad spectrum of songs and instrumental material that comes from the musical genius of the black American". In late June 1982, the hit list was renamed "Black Singles" because the music that African Americans bought and heard had "greater stylistic diversity than the soul sound" of the early 1970s. Black singles was considered an acceptable term for pop, funk, and early rap music that was popular in urban communities.
R&B was resumed in the name in 1990 and hip-hop was added to the title in the December 11, 1999 issue when Billboard changed the name to "Hot R & B / Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks", shortly after that time the crossover was from R&B titles so significant on pop charts that all of the top ten songs on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on October 11, 2003 were by black artists. The title was shortened on April 30, 2005 to "Hot R & B / Hip-Hop Songs". The chart methodology has been changed from the October 20, 2012 edition to align with that of the Billboard Hot 100 , including digital downloads and streaming data (R&B / hip-hop digital songs) and combining them with the broadcast of R&B - and hip-hop songs in all radio formats ( R & B / hip-hop airplay ) to determine the position of the single, whereby the table has also been shortened to 50 positions.
