Cool idea but why on earth is Trey Songz #1? He has at least two song on Hot 100 ("Na Na" at #21), and the #1 album this week.

Cool idea but why on earth is Trey Songz #1? His album is #1 on multiple charts which would also boost his social media numbers.

Cool idea but why on earth is Trey Songz #1? I know the question's been answered for you, but I want to emphasize that, just like with the Hot 100, this chart will be just a snapshot of popularity over a one-week duration. What's wins the sprint to #1 may be insignificant in the marathon. (See also: Taylor Swift's low ranking, as her new era hasn't kicked off yet)

This is a cool idea.
I assume there will be some good turnover for artists new releasing new albums. Trey will obviously not be #1 next week.

It seems like I only pitched this idea to Billboard nearly 6 years ago.
Back then though, it probably didn't seem logical given the impact of album sales over digital songs. And that fact that streaming wasn't a key player probably delayed them from trying this chart out. Overall, I love the concept of ranking artists. Noticing that Rhapsody ranks my top artists by plays, it only makes sense we get a complete picture of the music industry.

It'll be like the Billboard/Twitter charts. An artist will be #1 for like a minute and people will go ape-you-know-what over it!

I don't think so. This is an accumulation of chart points acquired during the week on the various charts, not (entirely) based on chatter. The same criteria used for the annual artist of the year charts so this should be a little more stable

Billboard Artist 100 Chart Launches; Trey Songz Leads First List
Sam Smith, Ariana Grande, MAGIC! and Luke Bryan among others in the top 10 of Billboard's exclusive new ranking of each week's top acts
Today (June 10), Billboard proudly unveils the Artist 100, the first-ever weekly ranking dedicated to measuring artist activity across our most influential charts, such as the Billboard Hot 100, Billboard 200 and Social 50.
Modeled after the formula utilized to compile our annual Year in Music Top Artist list, as well as the Billboard Music Awards Artist of the Year category, the Artist 100 blends information culled from album sales, track sales, radio airplay, streaming and social media fan interaction to provide a weekly multi-dimensional ranking of an artist's popularity across all the main means of music consumption.
Thanks to the arrival of his album "Trigga" atop the Billboard 200, Trey Songz snares the No. 1 spot on the first Artist 100 in a tight race over Sam Smith, who claims the runner-up spot. (That's right: ironically, our first Artist 100 chart is led by an act named Songz.)
"Billboard is incredible at tracking and reporting the influence of artists across different avenues and I could not be happier to be No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and the very first No. 1 on The Billboard Artist 100 at the same time," said Songz. "They've found innovative ways to measure artist activity and I applaud their forward thinking."
Songz's set sold 105,000 copies in its debut week, according to Nielsen SoundScan, nearly doubling the sales sum of the No. 2 album in the country, "x" by Ed Sheeran, who places at No. 5 on the Artist 100. While Songz garners most of his Artist 100 points (74 percent) from album sales, he's also benefiting from airplay, downloads and streaming of the set's tracks, most notably lead single "Na Na" (which peaked at No. 7 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs in April) and follow-up "SmartPhones." Both titles reside within the top 30 of R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay (Nos. 19 and 29, respectively), while "Na Na" leaps 33-21 on Streaming Songs (2.9 million U.S. streams, up 23 percent, according to Nielsen BDS).
Smith holds down the No. 2 spot on the Artist 100 with 65 percent of his points from song activity (airplay/sales/streaming). While his album "In the Lonely Hour" is performing solidly, dipping 2-3 on the Billboard 200 with 45,000 copies sold, lead single "Stay With Me" tops Digital Songs with 186,000 downloads sold. That track and Disclosure's "Latch," on which he's featured, both place in the top 10 of Radio Songs, at Nos. 5 and 8, respectively. (An artist sporting a featured credit on a song splits respective points, 30/70, with a title's lead artist; if multiple artists are featured on a song, they share that 30 percent). Also in Smith's song mix is activity from his recent top 20 Hot 100 hit, "La La La" by Naughty Boy, which features Smith on vocals.
Current Hot 100 dominator Iggy Azalea boasts the No. 3 ranking on the Artist 100. The Australian rapper tops the Hot 100 for a seventh week with "Fancy" and holds at No. 3 as a featured act on Ariana Grande's "Problem" (which peaked at No. 2 for five weeks). Azalea's "The New Classic" ranks at No. 19 on the Billboard 200 (14,000). Overall, 71 percent of Grande's sum is from song activity, with digital song sales the largest influencer among all contributing chart factors (36 percent).
The No. 6 debut of "Don't Kill the Magic" by MAGIC! on the Billboard 200 (36,000 sold) aids a No. 4 Artist 100 showing for the Canadian quartet, while a No. 5 entry on Digital Songs for Grande's "Break Free," featuring Zedd, puts the songstress to No. 6 on the Artist 100 (below Sheeran), with her total track sales points nearly doubling from a week ago.
Rounding out the Artist 100 top 10 are Katy Perry (No. 7), 5 Seconds of Summer (No. 8), Jason Derulo (No. 9) and Luke Bryan (No. 10). Among all acts in the top 10, 5 Seconds of Summer (No. 3 on the Social 50 chart), post the largest social points percentage, with 17 percent of its overall sum from online fan interaction on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and Wikipedia, as measured by Next Big Sound.
The Artist 100, exclusively presented by Wendy’s #PretzelLoveSongs campaign – a series of music videos celebrating the return of its pretzel bun, is the second new Billboard chart to launch this year, following the debut of the Billboard Twitter Real-Time Charts in May, which rank the most popular songs being shared and talked about on Twitter in the U.S.

I think this chart will be unpredicatable at times.
Given that it factors in song sales, streaming and social media, it might act a lot like the Hot 100. On the other hand, the Billboard 200 hosts artists who aren't all that big in the singles department and aren't heavy hitters in social media. Imagine a week where Barbra Streisand or Bob Dylan end up with the top album; they might lose out due to the lack of song downloads and streaming. If they can pull off a reasonable 300k week, they could find themselves in some serious competition on the chart.

Any artist who sells 500K a week on albums should get an easy #1, I think.

Why hasn't Billboard done this chart before?
They've done the Twitter Chart before they did this, that's just sad.

It seems like I only pitched this idea to Billboard nearly 6 years ago. Back then though, it probably didn't seem logical given the impact of album sales over digital songs. And that fact that streaming wasn't a key player probably delayed them from trying this chart out. Overall, I love the concept of ranking artists. Noticing that Rhapsody ranks my top artists by plays, it only makes sense we get a complete picture of the music industry. Interesting you should mention that. Twenty years ago I proposed the idea to them that they should include music video airplay (tabulating from all the various music video networks in operation at the time, including MTV and VH1) for their singles charts, because at that point the video clearly had a bigger impact on how well a single sold than did radio. Too bad it took the popularity of YouTube for them to consider it this decade.
