Hip-Hop and R&B Acts Inside the Artist 100

This week’s Artist 100 is out and while pop stars sit at the top, there are plenty of hip-hop and R&B acts inside the top 100. This chart takes a look at sales, streams and social media metrics to determine the very best artist of the week. It’s a fun chart if you ask us and we’re betting these artists are competitive about it within their circles.

Future sits at 14 this week, The Weeknd at 17, Migos at 18 and Lil Uzi Vert at 25. There are many many more though!
