Almost definitely, she has credits on so many hits since ‘97.

Songwriting credits on eleven number ones... many for extended stays at the top of the chart. She has to be.

Son of a Detroit auto-worker, Berry Gordy started making music in the 1950s, writing a few modest hits for artists like Jackie Wilson. After discovering The Miracles, he used his early songwriting profits and a loan from his family to found Motown Records in 1959 with The Miracles as Motown's first major act. Motown grew to become the most successful African American owned business in the country, with many huge acts such as Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, The Supremes, Martha & The Vandellas, The Commodores, Four Tops, The Temptations and Jackson 5. While running Motown, Berry Gordy continued to write songs, having a hand in several of his Motown artists' hits.

@eli's_rhythm She also has Summer Walker's Playing Games, Eminem's Walk On Water, Gaga's Telephone, Usher's Love In This Club P.2, and countless Jay-Z cuts. I'm sure she's here.:celestial5:

Seems like she doesn't have credits on "Hollywood" according to BMI/ASCAP. She's not credited on "03 Bonnie & Clyde" either, and even more surprising, neither are Kanye and Jay-Z as the only songwriters credited on BMI and ASCAP are the ones from the sample. She does have "Family Feud" and "On The Run (Part II)" though.

wow thats crazy

Yea, she even appears in their video at the beginning

 

I think it's one of the best usages of a sample in a 21st century pop song

:celestial5: Makes sense. Both 03 Bonnie & Clyde + Hollywood were purely Beyonce features.

100% on We Found Love.??:psyduck: WOWWWWW he must've made a **** ton of money

This is so cool :jonny: I love doing data collection like this but this must've really taken a ton of effort.

 

Perched for Mariah :cm:

Does a song get points for each week it is on the Hot 100?

 

Like for instance, will AIWFCIY get points for every week it charted on the Hot 100 for the past 25 years?

Yup. It's not super huge yet because it only charted for one week at #83 before 2012 but it's getting bigger and bigger every year.

I'm shocked at Calvin Harris! I mean, he has self-written We Found Love, Summer, Feel So Close, I Will Never Let You Down and My Way :eek: 

 

Yeah, he's good for life with We Found Love royalties!

Oh my god. So you will have to add 750/2 points to AIWFCIY if it goes #1 for 3 weeks? Mariah will only go up every year then :jonny:
