Eating "Chicken Noodle Soup" with j-hope and Becky G 2019-10-09 · 04:00 Becky G – Singer/artist @ Sony Music , j-hope – K-pop artist @ BTS , Jason Joven – host @ Chartmetric HighlightsIf you don’t eat chicken noodle soup with a soda on the side yet, then at least check out how a member of K-pop supergroup BTS tapped a 2006 Harlem dance craze to make a splash today...you might reconsider your lunch plans.Mission Good morning, it’s Jason here at Chartmetric with your 3-minute Data Dump where we upload charts, artists, and playlists into your brain so you can stay up on the latest in the music data world.We’re on the socials at “chartmetric” — that’s Chartmetric, one word and no “S.” Check us out on LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook!DateThis is your Data Dump for Wednesday, Oct. 9, 2019.Chicken Noodle Soup With j-hope and Becky GIf you’re not a BTS Army superfan, then you didn’t know that they’re currently taking a break from their full-on conquest for the US market, which has been going on since at least late 2017. You can read about that in our blog, link in the show notes.And if you didn’t grow up in the mid-2000s, especially in New York City or the East Coast, you might not know about Webstar, Young B or AG, the artists behind a fun dance to their mid-2000s hit “Chicken Noodle Soup”.But what might be interesting to you now, is how even during BTS’ two-month hiatus...they’re still really working the US market, just through one of the members as a solo act, j-hope.J-hope is known for his dance skills among the BTS fanbase, and in the last week of September, he dropped a remake of the Harlem party anthem “Chicken Noodle Soup”, rapping verses in Korean and singing the catchy chorus in English.The track has likely amassed over 70M YouTube views as of today with over 5.4M likes and 550K comments...this is all within 1.5 weeks.J-hope experienced a 6x increase in Spotify daily followers to over 18K and doubled his Spotify monthly listener count to over 2M.While certainly the star of the remake track, he also enlisted the help of Latin American pop star Becky G, who has a Spotify Popularity Index (or SPI) of 84 She also 84th in her ranking in the Chartmetric system.J-hope’s SPI is lower at 69, while his Chartmetric ranking was 947th yesterday, so it’s clear that at least on Spotify, Becky G’s higher profile should be helping expose the BTS member’s solo career to more people in the States and the Latin community alike.However, likely a measure of how curious BTS fans were of this collaborator, Becky G experienced her biggest jump in the past year in daily Wikipedia views by almost 10x to 29K.Regarding overall popularity, BTS themselves are just ahead of her in terms of their own Chartmetric ranking at 82nd place, with an SPI of 90.It’s hard to say who’s helping the other out more: j-hope picked an undeniably American dance classic to stoke stateside nostalgia and to pour more gas on the fire, featured one of Latin music’s top stars to gain more global market share.But Becky G is certainly enjoying her own new fans from j-hope’s part of the world: BTS’ stronghold on several platforms is still major cities in East and Southeast Asia, and as for fandom, the BTS camp is world-class.As for the original artists, Webstar and Young B? They’ve experienced their own upticks...for example, Young B is now known as Bianca Bonnie, and she experienced a 100x increase in daily Twitter followers to over 5K upon the remake’s release.Better yet? Their soda on the side will come in the form of tasty, tasty publishing royalties, thanks to a couple of Korean and Latin pop stars.Outro That’s it for your Daily Data Dump for Wednesday, Oct. 9, 2019.

2019-04-24 // Top 30 Trending Music Videos on YouTube 2019-04-24 · 07:45 Jason Joven – host @ Chartmetric HighlightsIt’s Winner Wednesday: Rap, Latin and K-pop rule the Top 30 Trending Music Videos on YouTube this weekMission Good morning, it’s Jason here at Chartmetric with your 3-minute Data Dump where we upload charts, artists and playlists into your brain so you can stay up on the latest in the music data world.DateThis is your Data Dump for Wednesday April 24th 2019.Winner Wednesday: YouTube Trending Music VideosThe Top Songs on YouTube in the US this week aren’t too surprising, with Lil Nas X continuing to dominate the video streaming platform with an additional 48.2M views for “Old Town Road” feat. Billy Ray Cyrus.But if you switch over to the Trending Music Videos, things get a little more interesting: rapper Lil Dicky’s “Earth” takes the #1 Trending YouTube Music Video spot.The Philadelphia rapper who frequently releases comedic rap songs with high-profile collaborations does it again, this time for Mother Earth.Released on April 18th before Earth Day, the video addressing climate change had 34M views as of yesterday.Rap power couple Offset and Cardi B took the #2 spot with “Clout”, while K-pop’s BTS takes the #3 position with their still-hot single featuring Halsey, “Boy With Luv”.Latin music took 5 of the top 30 spots, including singles from Becky G & Maluma, Bad Bunny and Daddy Yankee, but the highlight is probably the reunion of New York City’s bachata legends Aventura, releasing their first new music in almost a decade with the video “Immortal” in the #20 spot.Four of the top 30 videos were taken by K-pop, with TWICE and the fresh-off-Coachella group BLACKPINK placing in the late 20 ranks.But it’s BTS that pulled off two of the top videos with the same track: “Boy With Luv” in the #3 spot, and also appearing in the #15 position, but this time, with the official choreography video.This is a common practice in the K-pop world, where the official video drops first, then the choreography rehearsal video more than a week later. This maximizes the official video’s view count, while still giving fan service while the track is fresh.BTS goes the extra mile in their case, as in their choreography videos, they don’t even use the actual audio on the video besides the low-quality track playing in the dance studio, presumably to drive viewers to the official music video.Another case of a track making a double appearance on the trending video list is Florida rapper Kodak Black, in a diss track called “Expeditiously” against Atlanta rapper T.I.The original video, which is just a static image with the song is in the #5 spot with the official video coming out four days later in the #8 spot this week.It’s worth noting that just like Spotify’s Viral 50 chart or SoundCloud’s New & Hot chart, YouTube’s trending music video chart is filtered not by total views, but the ones showing the most virality. For example, Kodak Black’s #5 position video has 5.6M views while BLACKPINK’s video ranked 29th has 43x more views at 243M. Since YouTube updates this chart weekly, likely we’re looking at an algorithm that prioritizes the most views in the past seven days, which makes sense given the recent nature of the top charting video release dates.OutroThat’s it for your Daily Data Dump for Wednesday April 24th 2019.

2019-04-05 // Amazon Music's "Country Heat" and Kane Brown steps into the Latin world 2019-04-05 · 04:00 Becky G – Singer/artist @ Sony Music , Jason Joven – host @ Chartmetric , Kane Brown – Country artist @ Sony Music HighlightsAmazon Music’s “Country Heat” playlist features a who’s who in the Nashville scene today, while Country artist Kane Brown dips his toes into the Latin world with Becky GMissionGood morning, it’s Jason here at Chartmetric with your 3-minute Data Dump where we upload charts, artists and playlists into your brain so you can stay up on the latest in the music data world.DateThis is your Data Dump for Friday April 5th 2019.Playlist Highlight Currently at the top of Amazon Music’s Top Playlists is Country Heat, which lists “Fire tracks from the hottest acts in country music.”Currently at 55 songs and just over 3 hours long, it’s of course a mostly American collection of artists besides Aussie Morgan Evans and Canadian group James Barker Band each featuring one track.In terms of label representation, it’s pretty well distributed, with Sony Music in the lead with 16 of the current tracks, Universal at 9, indie Big Machine & major Warner Music at 8, and both BMG’s BBR Music Group and indie label Big Loud Records at 4 each.Blake Shelton kicks off the #1 spot with his anthemic track “God’s Country”, and Chris Stapleton’s “Millionaire” about how being in love is making him a rich man brings up the rear in the #55 position.Interestingly, Country Heat plays no artist favorites, as out of the entire 55 tracks, no artist appears more than once with the slight exception of Luke Combs, who placed his track “Beautiful Crazy” in the #20 spot, but appears as a guest in Brooks & Dunn’s ode to devotion in “Brand New Man” in position #51.So if you’re looking for a hot country playlist that seems to like a diverse set of artists, check out Amazon’s Country Heat.Artist Highlight in the NewsNow pulling into that playlist’s number 13 spot is Tennessee-born, Georgia-raised Kane Brown, who recently made an interesting move into the Latin world.Releasing the track “Lost in the Middle of Nowhere” with Mexican-American artist Becky G on March 28th, Brown sang in both English and Spanish, as the duo released two versions of the track on the same day.Both signed to Sony Music, they have similar data profiles on Spotify, though Becky G pulls ahead of Kane Brown in some aspects. Becky G’s Spotify popularity index is at 86 out of 100 while Brown is at 79, but he slightly edges her with a listener to follower ratio of 5, while Becky G is at 4. This is most likely due to Becky G being on many more Spotify editorial playlists at 245 and having much more exposure to accumulate more followers, while Brown is only on 50 editorial playlists.When it comes to daily statistics, Becky G is definitely exposing Brown to a wider crowd as Becky G has 5x more daily Spotify followers, 5x more daily YouTube views, 15x more daily Instagram followers than Brown.Becky G’s top five most listened to Spotify cities? Santiago, Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Madrid and Lima. Kane Brown’s are all stateside: Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, LA and Houston.Going by Instagram followers, Becky G’s fanbase is young but fairly spread out between 13-34, while over half of Kane Brown’s fanbase is between 18-24 only.They both cater to a majority female audience, though Becky G’s fanbase is 50% Hispanic and Kane Brown’s is 83% Caucasian, showing where the collaboration can provide the most exposure to new potential fans.The song itself definitely caters to each audience, as the country/English version features guitar power chords, acoustic string strumming and a straight backbeat drum pattern, while the Latin/Spanish version features reggae guitar rhythms and the trademark reggaetón beat.It looks like the cross-collaboration is going well for Brown as the Spanish version has 3.2M views more than the English version, so to Kane Brown, felicitaciones!OutroThat’s it for your Daily Data Dump for Friday April 5th 2019.
