Billboard updates Hot 100 rules to prioritize recent popularity, removing older songs to reflect current trends.
Billboard has updated its Hot 100 chart rules, introducing new criteria to remove older songs that have declined in popularity, aiming to reflect current music trends.
The changes, while lacking specific thresholds, signal a shift toward emphasizing recent streaming, radio play, and sales to maintain the chart’s relevance in the digital era.
The update follows years of debate over chart accuracy and longevity.
Stephen Thompson, NPR Music’s longtime contributor and co-creator of Tiny Desk Concerts, remains active in music journalism, though his work is unrelated to the changes.
