Billboard Launches New Daily Substack Newsletter Digging Deeper Into the Charts

Billboard is excited to introduce its brand-new Substack channel, dedicated entirely to daily charts coverage — a must-read destination for music fans, industry professionals and data obsessives alike.

This exclusive platform will bring subscribers into the heart of the action, spotlighting the closest battles for the No. 1 spots happening across Billboard’s 200-plus charts. Whether it’s the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, Billboard 200 albums ranking, or any of our genre-specific or global rankings, the Substack will be your go-to source for real-time chart analysis, record-breaking moments and behind-the-scenes insight into what’s driving the hits.

Each post will showcase the artists and songs making waves — from first-timers on the charts to established icons reclaiming the spotlight. You’ll also get a front-row seat to the momentum building behind viral tracks, fan-fueled streaming surges and surprising comeback stories. Expect analysis from Billboard’s team of chart analysts and data experts, who create the charts, track the trends and uncover the deeper narratives, along with additional members of Billboard‘s editorial team, including editor-in-chief Hannah Karp.

In addition, the Substack newsletter will feature exclusive commentary, spotlight up-and-coming talent poised for chart success and preview competitive races shaping the week ahead, while also shining a light on little-known chart facts and Billboard‘s editorial coverage week to week.

Fans, artists and industry watchers can subscribe to receive the Substack directly in their inboxes, or read the latest posts on the Substack platform.
