It's the top hundred songwriters from August 1958 to present. The list took a long time to make so I'm going to milk it for all it's worth. Anyways, I still want to wait a couple days to give people a chance to check the list of songwriters I've calculated points for (in the OP) to see if there's anyone with a decent amount of hits I've overlooked and should check the points for.

SoulKiwi Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 You should also check out Kesha she's been an integral songwriter for many hits by major A-Listers such as Miranda Cosgrove (Disgusting) and Miley Cyrus (The Time of Our Lives).

trainsskyscrapers Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I feel like Beyonce might be there on the lower end at least. Her charting solo stuff, her charting DC discography, charted tracks by The Carters, a #1 song for Nelly (Grillz), various charted tracks by Jay-Z, and current samples including most recently Summer Walker's Playing Games. Others I expect to see that haven't been listed already: Narada Michael Walden (***), Diane Warren, Sia Furler, David Foster, Benny Blanco, Katheryn Hudson, Ester Dean, Swae Lee, Onika Maraj (***), Edward Sheeran (***), Taylor Swift (***), Terius Nash (***), and several of the motown/Brill Building writers.

That doc isn't a list of people who've made it, it's just a list of songwriters I've done the stats for. Some of them aren't going to come anywhere close to the top 100 of all time, and probably aren't even in the top 1000 of all time. I was just curious to see which of those ex-acts had the most songwriter points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yeah, if there's anyone else you think I should check let me know. I also checked some artists that never had a chance at making the all-time top 100 just to see what their points are. I can post their points too if anyone's interested, like I did most of the pop girls. BTW if you've already seen the (incomplete) results, don't share the results here to avoid spoiling the reveals for others. I thought this was the list and opened it up, only to see 50 cent at the top and was so confused in that second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of her Hot 100 hits I think only "Evergreen" (from ASIB) and "I Finally Found Someone" charted on the Hot 100 no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash12345 Posted December 9, 2019 Author Share Posted December 9, 2019 Actually Evergreen only charted on AC, so it seems only "I Finally Found Someone" charted on the Hot 100? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
