Quark 7,089 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 o<(0_0)>o Here are the amount of #1 hit singles and the genres of those hit singles since 2009 to now. This is meant to show you the popularity of music genres throughout recent years. Important Notes: -The genres of the #1 Billboard Hot 100 singles were taken from wikipedia -If a song has more than one genre, than that song will be counted for every genre it has in its respective year -Pop, Dance Pop, and Synth Pop, are counted as the same (Indie Pop is a bit more different) -Example of how to read graph: In 2009 there was 10 pop(blue color) songs at #1, while only 2 Hip Hop songs(light red) -I know it might be hard to distinguish between some of the colors. Just ask me if you have any questions Here is a condensed version of the graph: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronk 14,729 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I'm not sure that's a good measure of the popularity of a genre. If a poll was taken asking which genre people preferred between pop, rock/metal, soul, rap/hip-hop, and a few other major categories, I think the results would be quite different. I live outside the space time continuum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
