Has anyone determined the cutoff date used? Nov 14 or 21? Pretty sure it was November 23, 2019 - November 14, 2020. The predictions using those dates check out. Billboard’s year-end music recaps represent aggregated metrics for each artist, title, label and music contributor on the weekly charts dated Nov. 23, 2019, through Nov. 14, 2020. source

I'm lowkey really annoyed that Stuck With U and The Scotts had enough legs to make the year end list off their #1 debuts to make the year end list, but Cardigan didn't.
Although that's mostly because I like Cardigan way better than both of those songs, and I'm really disappointed Taylor Swift's year end appearance streak is over now, despite folklore being huge this year.

Four of 2020’s top 10 streaming weeks came from Roddy Ricch’s “The Box,” so it’s fitting that it’s No. 1 on Billboard’s year-end Streaming Songs chart for 2020. The hip-hop star also closes the year as the top Streaming Songs Artist.
Billboard’s year-end music recaps represent aggregated metrics for each artist, title, label and music contributor on the weekly charts dated Nov. 23, 2019, through Nov. 14, 2020. The rankings for Nielsen Music/MRC Data-based year-end recaps reflect equivalent album units, airplay, sales or streaming during the weeks that the titles appeared on a respective chart during the tracking year. Any activity registered before or after a title’s chart run isn’t considered in these rankings. That methodology detail, and the November-November time period, account for some of the difference between these lists and the calendar-year recaps that are independently compiled by Nielsen Music/MRC Data.
Initially rising to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart dated Jan. 18, “The Box” eventually reigned for 11 weeks, stretching into spring as the year’s first properly viral hit. It concurrently ruled the weekly Streaming Songs chart for 13 weeks during the 2020 chart year, the longest leader of the year and tied for the fifth-longest reign in the ranking’s seven-year history.
All that was despite the lack of a music video until Feb. 28, a clip that nonetheless went on to accumulate well over 200 million global views as of press time. Its streaming success mimicked that of multiple chart wins in 2020: “The Box” initially took off on TikTok.
Roddy Ricch himself doesn’t just have the No. 1 on the year-end Streaming Songs chart; he’s also the No. 1 Streaming Songs Artist of the year, a feat supported not only by the success of “The Box,” but also the 10-week rule of DaBaby’s “Rockstar” on the weekly Streaming Songs list, on which Roddy Ricch is a featured artist. “Rockstar” ends up No. 4 on the year-end songs list, making Roddy Ricch the only act with two entries in the year-end top five.
DaBaby concludes the year as the No. 2 Streaming Songs Artist, benefited by the success of “Rockstar,” as well as his featured spot on Jack Harlow’s “Whats Poppin,” the year-end No. 6 track on the songs ranking. Lil Baby, Juice WRLD and The Weeknd round out the year-end top five Streaming Songs Artists, while Post Malone, last year’s No. 1, ends at No. 8.
The year-end Streaming Songs list’s top five following “The Box” is Future’s “Life Is Good” featuring Drake, The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” DaBaby’s “Rockstar” featuring Roddy Ricch, and Post Malone’s “Circles.” “Life Is Good” in particular boasted impressive longevity; despite its No. 2 rank, it never climbed higher than No. 2 on the weekly chart as well. It spent its first eight weeks at No. 2 on Streaming Songs and has remained on the chart every week since, never falling lower than No. 33 during the 2020 chart year.
While hip-hop largely continued to reign on Streaming Songs in 2020, the other major story on the chart this year was the continued rise of the country genre on streaming services after multiple years where country artists barely appeared at all.
The year-end, 75-position Streaming Songs chart sees four non-holiday country titles reach the tally, after just one (Blanco Brown’s “The Git Up”) cracked the year-end list in 2019. In fact, four non-holiday country songs (plus a fifth via Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”) is the most on the year-end Streaming Songs survey in its history, topping 2018’s two-song total, and comes after multiple years in which the year-end chart had no country songs whatsoever (2014-16).
Gabby Barrett’s “I Hope” leads that group at No. 29, while the other songs on the 2020 tally include Dan + Shay and Justin Bieber’s “10,000 Hours” (No. 52), Maren Morris’ “The Bones” (No. 61) and Morgan Wallen’s “Chasin’ You” (No. 74).

Just did a comparison of my modified inverted points tally to the actual. As I expected based on other's more detailed predictions I swapped the #1 & #2 songs and also the #3 & #4 songs, but every song I had had in the top 10 was also in the Billboard top ten and no song was off by more than one position. (4 were exact).
That's the most accurate my method has ever been.
Overall, I missed only 5 of the top 100, and they were all in the 90-100 range in Billboard and in the 101-107 range on my chart.
Biggest hit on my chart that didn't make it: Tusa by Karol G which I had at #83. Biggest Billboard hit not in my list: P*$$y Fairy, which made #94 and I had at #103.
I'm very satisfied.

New here, but Luke Combs with having three songs on the year-end, let's go!! And "Even Though I'm Leaving" was much higher on the list than I thought. Thank goodness it never got caught in between years given how late it was released as a single.

If this was based on the calendar year The Weeknd would be the Top Artist
The fact that this list includes one month and a half of 2019 is ridiculous.

It just feels wrong to have someone as the “biggest artist of the year” when they haven’t even released anything since September of last year. I don’t even think Posty had any major features. Roddy Ricch and The Weeknd felt like the true defining artists of the year.

One more question: why is there such a rush to post end of the year content at the beginning of December when there’s still a whole month left. Billboard isn’t the only culprit, although it’s probably the biggest. At least wait until the last week of the month. You know, when it’s *actually* the end of the year.

The bottom half of the chart is very weak. I like around 10 songs in that half. In contrast, I like all songs in the top 20, except one (“Intentions”).

I think Loud Luxury is the only Canadian act on the Canadian Top 100 to not impact the US charts. The Canadian domestic music market has died.

Billboard isn’t the only culprit, although it’s probably the biggest. At least wait until the last week of the month. You know, when it’s *actually* the end of the year. Probably the only exception I can specifically mention is Nielsen Music report for roughly the full year. Apple and even TikTok already put out their lists.

These companies want to capitalize on media sources looking at their year-end content for their own lists later in the month. Yes, it would be more accurate if they published at the end of December/beginning of January (the Rolling Stone and UK charts do that), but unfortunately capitalism has to reign supreme. At least Billboard doesn't exclude whole weeks/months of data from their lists. Fun fact: Spotify Wrapped playlists only use data from the beginning of January through the end of October. That means you can stream all the embarrassing crap you want through the end of this month and it won't show up on your 2021 Spotify Wrapped.

^The prior argument used to be that you needed to have time to compile, print and sell the printed Billboard. But releasing the charts before the end of the year allows for year end countdowns, for example, on radio and personalized most listened to playlist on Spotify and Apple Music, for example.

That's weird cause Dakiti made it onto my Spotify wrapped top 100 songs and I only streamed the song in November

One year-end that's not part of the regular weekly chart lineup is: GOOGLE’S TOP HUMMED SONGS 2020. It turns out you can do a Google hummed song search since mid-October this year.

Ugh don't get me wrong, I love that "The Bones" is the 9th biggest song of the year. But, I hate when songs miss the top 10 on the Hot 100 but are top 10 on the year-end chart.
"The Bones" deserved to go top 10 this year and I'm still so upset it didn't.

(1) female artist in the top 10 smh... I love juicewrld, but imo i wouldve replaced him with Dua, just in terms of who I thought was bigger this year. The legends never die album did well, but didnt produce a monster hit like dont start now. My top 10 might look somethint like this: 1. The Weeknd 2. Roddy Ricch 3. Dababy 4. Lil Baby 5. Drake 6. Dua Lipa 7. Pop Smoke 8. Harry Styles 9. Megan Thee Stallion 10. Taylor Swift
Megans getting top 10 next year for sure. All she needs is a "My Turn" like album to get there. My man Malone didnt drop shit this year, foh!

Funny how Levitating by Dua Lipa managed to reach #40 on the Year-End Hot Dance/Electronic Songs list; it didn't even chart a single week there.

Is the Artist chart still based on the Billboard 200 and Hot 100? From the year-end article: "The Top Artists and Top New Artists recaps ranks the best-performing overall acts, and new acts, of the year based on activity on the Billboard 200 albums tally, the Billboard Hot 100 songs list, as well as Billboard Boxscore (touring) and the Social 50 chart for the 2020 tracking period."
It's interesting, it seems that the inability to tour, as well as lower radio audience and streaming numbers (partly made worse later on by changing the formula taking away UGC content) would hurt artists who were more active after the pandemic started, but I'm not sure if many artists were touring during the winter months right before the pandemic?

Not like anyone’s interested in an opinion, but by quantity I didn’t like quite as many of the songs this year compared to last year. However I still like the direction music’s going in general & think the 2020s still hold a lot of potential

milky- "Levitating" (featuring Madonna and Missy Elliott) peaked at No. 6 on Dance/Electronic Songs. Billboard removed it from the chart, though, once the version featuring DaBaby debuted.
