Sly Stone’s numbers are very good (he’s one of my favourite artists ever), as are Sean Paul’s. 👌🏿
Ashford & Simpson’s combined points are amazing = 24,522!
Richard Marx being close to 30K points is also great!

nickd • George Benson • Isaac Hayes • Jim Weatherly • Bobby Womack 😎 George Benson doesn't seem to have written any of his Hot 100 hits. Many of his songwriters have already been covered, but an important songwriter who wrote his biggest hit has not been. |

Updated Kanye thegreatdivine - he lost almost 3000 points despite adding the songs from the Jesus Is King album bomb (though those only gave him 110 points). ASCAP and BMI's databases don't list him in the writing credits for '03 Bonnie & Clyde, Young Forever, All Falls Down and Through The Wire so that's a big part of where he lost the points from. |

Yes, he doesn't have a lot of songwriter credits on his biggest songs even though he has a lot of production credits on a lot of other songs. He usually shares credits with a lot of other names even on songs where he doesn't use samples. |

14 songs and almost 15K points. 😯 A LEGEND! By the way, are you going to combine Ashford & Simpson’s points? For duo-songwriters that’d be cool I think. H-Dz-H also. 😎 |

14 songs and almost 15K points. 😯 A LEGEND! By the way, are you going to combine Ashford & Simpson’s points? For duo-songwriters that’d be cool I think. H-Dz-H also. 😎 I don't think so since a lot of duos and trios wrote songs outside their main team including H-Dz-H. Many songwriters were also part of multiple songwriting teams where they went back to specific people regularly. It often gets complicated and arbitrary to decide what's a team even if clear cut cases exist. Ex Barry Mann wrote with his wife Cynthia Weil a lot. However Phil Spector was involved on a lot of the songs the wrote together. He often wrote with Gerry Goffin too, sometimes with Cynthia Weil as a 3rd co-writer, sometimes with Carole King, sometimes with both. He also has many hits with Larry Kolber, and repeatedly wrote with Howard Greenfield as well as with Lieber & Stoller. Or Timbaland, he wrote a lot with Missy Elliott but also had lots of hits with Danja combined with either Justin Timberlake or Nelly Furtado... as well as many collabs with Static Major, Jay-Z and more. |

Boudleaux Bryant Points: 12587   He had some of his biggest hits on pre-Hot 100 charts, if you include those he'd have 18236 points:  His wife Felice Bryant should have around half his point total. |

Love love love the effort you put into this. I found one small thing that'll probably not have a huge overall impact, but she wrote "So Far Away" by herself, so she should get 100% for that one! EDIT: Actually, I think that's enough to put her ahead of Dr. Luke. Good. lol. |

Carole King - it took a while to track down all her songs, but this is going off the list of songs she wrote from her own website and checking which of those charted so hopefully this should be a complete list. Points: 33082 paulhaney rockgolf Love love love the effort you put into this.

EDIT: Actually, I think that's enough to put her ahead of Dr. Luke. Good. lol. Thanks for letting me know, I fixed her and Gerry Goffin's point totals accordingly. |
