Will it crack the Top 20 this year??? It would be so nice to have a new peak. Last year's run was 29-25-21. So already off to a slightly higher start. Let's see how close it gets without Xmas day airplay included this year. I'm sure heavier streaming component on H100 is helping.

^ Ah, thanks, HG. It does get a little muddled.

Whitburn no longer counts featurings in #1 tallies, so he would list Rihanna at only 10. In this age of internet articles on EW and Billboard and vocal fan wars, I'm not sure this is the way to go (conflicting so dramatically with BB). Record Research's attitude is that the bulk of featured artists are disposable, interchangeable and secondary to the primary artist. That sounds reasonable when its a twenty second rap by an unknown artist, but these high profile collabos are more like duets, relying heavily on crucial chorus based vocal hooks.

Honestly, I think Joel got his panties in a bunch over featurings in this last edition of his book just so he can keep Elvis at #1 on the all-time lists. That's why he gives Elvis credit for more #1s and top tens than Billboard does (even with Billboard counting his pre-Hot 100 entries). He still lists Mariah below Elvis for #1s and Madonna below him for top tens. When Glee passed Elvis, he discredited them as a revolving troupe of singers instead of a regular recording act and removed them from the list. When Lil Wayne passed Elvis he said featuring credits no longer count. Mark my words, if Taylor Swift passes Elvis he will split the digital age into a separate listing.

I love his books but his Elvis bias is a little ridiculous.

I wonder which session instrumentalists, producers, songwriters, etc. have been involved with the most #1s. Somebody, go figure that out!

I think that already has been figured out? Weren't all of the Motown songs between certain years played by the same session musicians? How many Motown #1s have there been?

I don't know, doesn't seem to me like Rihanna has completely earned the right to be in such elite company. JMO.

I'd say it feels that way because often times it's hard for people to accept/believe/want to accept when a newer artist makes a record or somehow achieves something that in our minds should take a LONG time to achieve or should be limited to music from decades ago.

We know that some records are seemingly easily broken or at least more "modern" like first-week sales, for example, or whatever, but records like most Hot 100 #1s seem to be restricted to the all-time greats and names because it's a measurement of the charts from the 50s onward. I'm sure people felt similarly when Mariah racked up her 13th #1.

Autotune? I don't hear any autotune in Rihanna's voice on The Monster, lol.

That means it was used properly.

Autotune isn't meant to be heard.

Wow, it's hard to believe that this is the Arctic Monkeys' first appearance on the Hot 100 here....

Yup. It's funny now to hear people talking about Mariah's sacred record, because up until at least 2005, nobody held her in that kind of regard. People were talking about how she just had a bunch of forgettable #1s that didn't deserve to be up there with The Beatles'. Who's to say Rihanna will never be highly regarded? Her chart history is among the most impressive in history already (both on the Hot 100 and at radio).

[Deleted]

When Mariah reached her 13th #1 hit in 1998 she was already much more highly regarded than Rihanna is now. Mainly because Mariah at least played a much larger role in her singles and albums. She had a hand in writing almost all her songs; she helped produce some of her music, and she had an incredible instrument at her disposal, her voice.

Rihanna has none of these. She doesn't write her own songs; she doesn't play an instrument, and while her singing has improved over the years, she isn't anywhere near Mariah's level in vocal ability.

I personally don't think she will ever be that highly regarded no matter how many #1's she manages to get, but I guess we shall see.

Jazzy serving the truth once again.



Whether you as an individual think Rihanna is "worthy" or not of something is completely irrelevant. Fact is that she keeps having very strong success year after year.

The perception of someone's glory years is always largely dictated by hindsight ultimately. It has happened to every single musical act that has ever done anything to be significantly noted.

Most individuals who keep saying that the hitmakers of today are "undeserving" of being in certain groups are either older people having trouble coming to terms with their aging and changing pop culture, or younger people who are overly bitter and emotional. The ones who are truly trying to see the big picture know that certain things cannot be determined in the present are just waiting to see how things play out, because unless you're actually in the industry, that's the only thing you can do.

I agree with him about Glee. Personally, I think including all of Glee's fly by night "hits" (some of which lasted on the chart for no more than a single week) tends to undermine the entire all-time list and the accomplishments of all the other artists that are on it.

That doesn't count in the public perception when people don't realize it. Mariah is still reminding people she's written 99% of her non-covers and co-produced most of them too. People think "All I Want For Christmas Is You" is a cover, without realizing she wrote it and has production credits.

Sorry, that's not always true. During the Beatles "glory years" they were still highly regarded by most critics (after they got over the Beatlemania phase of their career) as one of the more important acts around, and that assessment has only grown stronger in the many years since they ceased to be a functioning band.

All that matters !

[seaguy27]

You cannot deny that lumping every artist from different era's is highly misleading. Rhianna has been a very unusual artist in that she is pumping
material out like McDonalds is hamburgers. When you ad the quick turnaround of her albums with the huge amount of featuring it is a non-stop machine.

She has never been as highly regarded as the other elite acts on that list critically or albums sales wise. Mariah and Madonna took breaks and were not featuring on everyone else's singles in between and they both had massive streaks with singles rather it was #1's or top 10's. Rhianna has had alot of flops but it does not matter because she constantly has something out or is releasing an album almost every year.

In the end different era's are impossible to compare because the way the music industry has changed is so much.

She has put out so much more than these acts did and so many features were as these other legendary acts did it on their own with breaks.
Also she did not have the legendary album sales and #1's that the other acts had. Her name just does not fit in here. I think era's are so different
they should not be compared on the same lists!

If Glee Cast and Lil Wayne have more Hot 100 titles than Elvis, Rihanna perfectly fits in that list, she'll probably surpass Michael Jackson and will be closer and closer to Mariah depending on how longer Rih stays relevant.

You'll have to deal with it oh and stop being bitter, records are meant to be broken.

Im not bitter, im simply saying it is almost absurd to compare because the era's were so incredibly different. Sorry it is a fact that she does not
have the elite status as these other acts. It is also fact that she has put out an enormous amount of product including a slew of features. It is like
comparing oranges and apples. It is fine to put her on the list in a literal way but we all know the footnotes and variables behind it.

[Old-school 72]

Madonna is the 80's legend and GOD
Mariah is the 90's legend
but there really isnt a legend for the last 13 yrs and thats sad.

[Deleted]

I don't respect anyone just because they rack up #1's, i commend Rihanna for hers but imo she is just one of many hit makers and unless she gains Beyonce type of respect and adoration all those #1's mean nothing. I respect Mariah for her body of work, her talent and her voice not because she has #18 no 1's, that's just added glitter. Rihanna is a fun artist sometimes and she makes lots of songs i like but the reason her accomplishment isn't looked at in the same way as Mariah is that it just doesn't feel the same and she really hasnt dominated her era like a Mariah or a Madonna. Lets be honest Katy Perry is already coming in much shorter time to dethrone her of being the #1 hitmaker of her time and Beyonce is the highly regarded singer of her time, so Rihanna is just kinda wedged somewhere in the middle.

There are probably several heading towards that direction, don't you think? Beyonce is definitely one of them that's on her way.

Even if "only" 10 of her #1's are her's lead artist, I still think that's very impressive for a 25 year old lol

I still her as having 13 #1's though. She had a lot to do with "The Monster", "Live Your Life" and "Love the Way You Lie" being this big. It's not just an 8-bar verse she laid down on these songs.

yeah eminems last two #1 hits wer with rihanna on them. ti only had one other #1 hit as alead.
rihanna has no problem getting those #1s on her own accord.
honestly i remember when there was a 3 way tie between mariah madonna and whitney and ppl feeling ok and then she scored her 12th and 13th and it was cool but the when she scored her 14/15th with heartbreaker and thank g0d i found you ppl were feeling like mariah didnt deserve it as she inched closer to the beatles and elvis' record.

um, there are a few: eminem, britney, justin timberlake, beyonce, jay z, kanye, alicia keys and pink.

wow at people seething at rihanns reign using excuses of different caliber of artist or different chart time...well the chart evolves im sure the tactics mariah worked to get her #1s wasnt exactly the same as the beatles and its about the charts representing a snapshot in time anyways.
the anger and frustrarion is real for rihanna.
wonders what will happen with er 14th #1 with her shakira feature or her possible 15 and sweet 16 #1s with her first two singles off of her summer 2014 album. lol.

[Deleted]

She should hook up with Lil Wayne for her next single. Lil Wayne of course is the overall king od the 'featurings'

Where's Alex & Sierra? Are they not allowed to chart?

[bigfan101]

^ yeah that's what I am wondering. Not possible they were not in the top 50 on digital sales for the week.

Why would X-Factor tracks be allowed to chart on iTunes, but not the Hot 100? Weird.
