Carey grew up on the classics: Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight. She moved to New York City after high school, cobbling together jobs while working on demos with then-collaborator Ben Margulies at the back of Margulies’ father’s cabinet factory. Her biggest tracks—from the early, dance- and gospel-influenced “Someday” and “Dreamlover” to the club leanings of “Fantasy” and “Honey” to ballads such as “Forever” and “Always Be My Baby” to the ultimate holiday pop song “All I Want for Christmas Is You"—stand like mile markers in the culture. And her guest turn on 2022’s remix of Latto’s “Big Energy” (which interpolates Mariah's “Fantasy”) is further testament to her continued relevance. She captures a feeling of sweetness and euphoria that straddles pop, hip-hop, and R&B without slotting neatly into any of them. Meanwhile, her melismatic style—a technique that entails singing a single syllable with a long run of notes—redefined our sense of what pop vocals sound like. Mimi, The Elusive Chanteuse, The Imperfect Angel...or maybe just Mariah. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History1990 09 Vision Of Love -1-1990 37 Love Takes Time -2-1991 38 Someday -3-1991 54 There's Got To Be A Way -4-1991 17 Emotions -1-1992 20 Can't Let Go -2-1992 17 Make It Happen -3-1992 02 I'll Be There (feat.

Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou (Michael) and Andrew John Ridgeley first met in secondary school as 12-year-olds back in 1975. Their 1981 debut as Wham!, the pop-rap snack “Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do?),” preached the joy of life on welfare amid rampant British unemployment. As the group’s principal songwriter and frontman, Michael’s exuberant turn on “Young Guns (Go for It!)” precipitated Wham!’s vibrant, post-disco debut, Fantastic, in 1983, which parlayed the duo’s carefree vigor into the glistening hedonism of “Club Tropicana.” Returning in 1984 with the emphatic “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go,” the group folded Detroit soul into an effervescent pop marvel that sent Wham! to the summit of the U.S. pop charts. Michael took over production on their follow-up album, Make It Big, whose modernized Motown sound on the brooding boogie cut “Everything She Wants” and the resplendent pop-soul of “Careless Whisper” cemented his standing as one of pop’s foremost performer/composers. Ending 1984 with the career-defining synth-pop torch song “Last Christmas,” Wham! harked back to their feel-good beginnings with “I’m Your Man” in 1985 before amicably parting to allow Michael to focus on his solo career. Their final album, 1986’s Music from the Edge of Heaven, featuring their last single “The Edge of Heaven,” wrote the postscript on a prodigious four-year passage that flourished into an indelible pop legacy. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History1982 03 Young Guns (Go For It) -1-1983 08 Wham Rap!

Ariana Grandetwilight zone4th single from eternal sunshine deluxe: brighter days aheadReleased: 28th March 2025Label: Republic RecordsChart StatisticsNE (10/04/2025) | 5-15-18-23-31-38-49-56-55-xSales: 200,000+Certification: Silver16 Sales13 Audio Streamingxx Video StreamingVideoBiographyArmed with a mesmerising, nimble soprano—and a vocal register often likened to those of Mariah Carey and Christina Aguilera—Ariana Grande began her career as a child star on Broadway and Nickelodeon before transforming into a pop and R&B powerhouse. Instantly recognisable thanks to her signature ponytail and breezy self-confidence, Grande, born in Florida in 1993, has developed a slyly sexual personal brand that has, like that of the Spice Girls before her, become an iconic image of young female power. But Grande is more than a symbol: over the course of several albums and scores of hit singles across the genre spectrum—beginning with 2013’s R&B crooner “The Way” (featuring Mac Miller) and continuing through to an EDM collab with Zedd (“Break Free”), slinky retro-soul (“Dangerous Woman”) and diva trap-pop (“7 rings”)—she has consistently outshined her male collaborators and deftly parlayed her stardom into activism. An LGBTQ+ advocate and outspoken feminist, she has long used her platform to confront misogyny, sexism, homophobia and bullying, spreading a message of love over all. Her Max Martin-produced smash “no tears left to cry”, an escapist dance-floor triumph released a year after a deadly terrorist attack at one of her concerts in 2017, and its subsequent album, Sweetener, sent a message of hope and healing, with a dose of hear-me-roar attitude. Grande’s pop vision has since focused inward, using music as a therapeutic tool for spiritual growth. After experiencing a devastating personal loss with the death of ex-boyfriend Mac Miller in 2018, she re-emerged with 2019’s thank u, next, an elegiac album that was as therapeutic as it was dance-ready, with a title track that sends off ex-lovers with a gentle kiss on the cheek. The following year’s pandemic-written Positions highlights Grande’s mellifluous vocals and her desire to be content in love—even when boasting about her sexual prowess (as on the cheeky “34+35”), the real star of her heart is her own self. And on her lush, auto-fictitious 2024 concept album, eternal sunshine, she glides with a coy smile and a heavenly whistle through the emotions of a woman betrayed, perceived and adored, with a short wave to critics and tabloids on the pulsing house groove of “yes, and?” - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History2013 41 The Way (feat.

Chappell RoanThe SubwayNon-album singleReleased: 1st August 2025Label: Amusement RecordsChart StatisticsNE (14/08/2025) | 1-2-4-5-10-14-12-14-16-21-20-58-77-53-68-xRE (11/12/2025) | 91-xSales: 300,000+Certification: Silver03 Sales01 Audio Streaming09 Video StreamingVideoBiographyChappell Roan specializes in jubilant, femme-positive pop that combines a strong romantic streak with a hunger for grand experiences. Kayleigh Rose Amstutz (born in 1998 in Willard, MO) began posting cover-song videos online in her teens, and after releasing her first EP, School Nights, in 2017, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue her pop-star dreams. In early 2020 she connected with producer Dan Nigro, and that April she released “Pink Pony Club,” a torchy ballad about thriving at “a special place/where boys and girls can all be queens every single day.” Roan released a smattering of singles, including the writhing “My Kink Is Karma” and the yearning “Casual,” before putting out her first full-length, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, in September 2023. Roan’s unbridled, lusty pop songs became an online phenomenon—or, as she might put it, a “femininomenon”—and she hit the arena circuit when she opened for Olivia Rodrigo on the latter’s GUTS tour in early 2024. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History2024 02 Good Luck, Babe! -NAS- MILLIONAIRE2024 31 Red Wine Supernova -3-2024 04 HOT TO GO! -4- MILLIONAIRE2024 01 Pink Pony Club -1- MILLIONAIRE2024 44 Casual -2-2025 02 The Giver -NAS-2025 01 The Subway -NAS-2 x #1 | 5 x Top 5 | 5 x Top 10 | 5 x Top 20 | 6 x Top 40 | 7 x Top 100Social Media Chappell Roan

December 26, 2025Dec 26 Author Missed the top 100 this year? Doja CatJealous Type1st single from VieReleased: 22nd August 2025Label: Kemosabe Records / RCA RecordsChart StatisticsNE (04/09/2025) | 13-25-33-36-44-30-38-41-42-xSales: 100,000+Certification: -24 Sales28 Audio Streaming32 Video StreamingVideoBiographySome call the end of summer the “slow news season”—school’s still out, holidays are in full swing, and headlines tend to get weird—and Doja Cat (born Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini in 1995) knew just what to do about it. In August of 2018, the Los Angeles singer and rapper dropped “Mooo!”, a sultry R&B jam thick with double entendres and sung from the perspective of a cow. It went viral, thanks to an unforgettable, improbably catchy chorus that had people wondering: Could she possibly be for real? But Doja, who released her debut EP, Purrr!, in 2014, and her first album, Amala, in 2018, was no novelty act. In the years since, she has proven herself one of pop music’s savviest, most audacious characters. She raps nimbly, switching up her cadence from one syllable to the next, and her pop-culture nods (referencing actresses Tia and Tamera Mowry or sampling blink-182 and Paul Anka) are just as unpredictable as her dizzying flow. Her presentation is both tough and coquettish. As she demonstrated over and over on her 2019 album, Hot Pink, she assumes a fun and fundamentally empowered stance in her singing and rapping about sex. And woe to anyone who might take issue with that: “Sex is meaningful, it is!” she told Apple Music, with her trademark defiant charm. Futuristic, interplanetary adventures fueled the 2021 album Planet Her, which sees Doja Cat continuing her dominance in expressing the spectrum of feminine experiences. An ardent student of hip-hop, Doja builds her stylistic approach upon the nostalgic elements that colored rap’s golden eras: Her deserved cockiness intertwines with her unique personality, informed by the greats who preceded her. Her desire to be seen as a formidable MC is felt most on 2023’s Scarlet, a provocative project that reflects her desire for freedom and flexibility. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History2019 80 Juicy (Doja Cat & Tyga) -1-2020 02 Say So -2- MILLIONAIRE2020 24 Boss Bitch -OST-2020 62 Like That (feat.
