Go to Billboard’s website and find the Hot 100. Who is in the #1 chart position? Who has been on the charts the longest? Who had the biggest jump or fall from last week? Now go to Next Big Sound and compare that same song’s position in the Social 50. Are the positions the same in both charts? Which tracks have been on the charts the longest? Which are moving up? Which are dropping? How does Nielsen Audio rank it?
Visit the websites next week and check out the changes.
