[Disclaimer: If Billboard had expanded the Hot 100 Airplay chart profile to include airplay data from R&B, Adult Contemporary & Modern Rock (etc.) radio stations at the time then Michael Jackson, Bryan Adams and especially Whitney Houston would have been the first artists within the soundscan era to pass the 100M AI mark].

What was the AI peak for Irreplaceable? I knew it was over 200M.

"Irreplaceable" peaked at 232M AI via. Mediabase, but peaked at 196M via. Nielsen BDS.

 

Nielsen BDS is the monitoring system that Billboard uses to report airplay data; most often get the two confused.

 

The first song to surpass 200M impressions via. Mediabase was Usher's "Yeah!" in 2004, however the first song to surpass 200M impressions via. Nielsen BDS was Mariah Carey's "We Belong Together" the following year.

Whats the difference between the two? What makes one give more AI to a song than another?

Guess which song is still in super power rotation on Z100-NY, KIIS-LA, Kiss-Chicago and many other daddy stations.

 

NEW RULES.

 

It is going to be 2018's no1 song. It is already at no1 on the year to date chart!

Do we have the full AI update?

Actually, I think R&R also has a -3 rule in addition to 25/26. but BB didn't have that with 20/26. Instead of removing the songs after 20 wks, songs just didn't get a bullet regardless of gains/losses. If 20/26 and 25/26 was coupled with -4 instead of -3, these RC chart rules would be perfect. I do think 10/52/-4 should be a rule too though.
