All-Time Billboard Eras
Guidelines:
*The exception is Lady Gaga's "The Fame" & "The Fame Monster" which were able to chart separately due to the re-release being available for individual purchase, thus I separated the Hot 100 points of the releases.
- Blending all-time Billboard 200 points for albums with their all-time Hot 100 points for every charted song on the album, with the ratio of points used for Billboard's All-Time Top Artists list (Billboard 200 points x1.75, Hot 100 points x1.0).
- Billboard 200 & Hot 100 charts up to September 24, 2022.
Guidelines:
- Since re-releases are not split on Billboard 200, I included re-release songs into Hot 100 point tabulations. There's no way to properly split a re-release era.*
- Collaborations that were on multiple albums are included on both's point tabulations, although there is no albums top 100 with same singles.
- Soundtracks had all singles included, even if released by different artists since this is simply a measure of an album era and not individual artist's success.
- Collaborations did not have points reduced/split, since this is simply a measure of an album era and not individual artist's success.
