Finneas returns to No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 Songwriters chart (dated Jan. 16) for a record 11th total week on top, and for the first time since November 2019, thanks to a pair of writing credits on the latest Billboard Hot 100.
With his latest week at the summit, Finneas passes Roddy Ricch for the most total weeks spent at No. 1, dating to the chart’s June 2019 inception.
“Therefore I Am” by Billie Eilish, Finneas’ sister and co-writer, ranks at No. 14 on the Hot 100. It reached No. 2 in November. Justin Bieber and benny blanco’s “Lonely,” which Finneas co-wrote with the pair, follows at No. 18, after debuting at its No. 14 high in October.
Finneas led the inaugural Hot 100 Songwriters chart dated June 15, 2019, and spent 10 weeks at No. 1 that year. He last ruled the ranking dated Nov. 30, 2019 (in a tie with Eilish).
Eilish, meanwhile, jumps 18-10 on Hot 100 Songwriters. She previously spent four weeks at No. 1.
On the Hot 100 Producers ranking, Joey Moi tallies an eighth week at No. 1, thanks to five production credits on the Hot 100, including on four songs by Morgan Wallen: “More Than My Hometown” (No. 27), “7 Summers” (No. 53), “Somebody’s Problem” (No. 81) and “Still Goin Down” (No. 98). (Plus, Chris Lane’s “Big, Big Plans” ranks at No. 49.)
Moi surpasses OZ and Finneas for the third-most weeks spent at No. 1 on Hot 100 Producers (which also began in June 2019), after Louis Bell (17 weeks) and 30Roc (nine).
The weekly Hot 100 Songwriters and Hot 100 Producers charts are based on total points accrued by a songwriter and producer, respectively, for each attributed song that appears on the Hot 100; plus, genre-based songwriter and producer charts follow the same methodology based on corresponding “Hot”-named genre charts. As with Billboard’s yearly recaps, multiple writers or producers split points for each song equally (and the dividing of points will lead to occasional ties on rankings).
