Another ALL-TIME list here -- This time based on artists. This turned out to be much more difficult than I expected, because of all the complications in artist credits. I used these criteria: - If only one artist (solo or group), that act gets 100% of the GOAT points for all songs
- Duets (where listed as "and", "&", "with", "duet", "X" or no split in the name at all (like "Jay Z Kanye West") have points split equally.
- Artist that performed regularly as a duo are tracked separately from solo songs (e.g. Sonny & Cher, or Simon & Garfunkel).
- For songs with "featured" acts, the main acts gets 70% of the points, the featured acts split 30% of the points
- For songs with 2 or 3 main acts, those acts split the 70% and the featured act or acts split the remaining 30%
- I did not track more than 3 main acts or 2 featured acts on any tracks. Just wasn't worth it.
- The list goes from the first Hot 100 thru last week's chart. Sorry, Taylor.
So here's the top 1000 acts, set in Spoiler so it doesn't take up tons of space.
