Listen Wider Challenge 2020

Playlists and Reading Lists for the Listen Wider Challenge

Challenge

  1. A song by an artist currently atop Billboard’s “Social 50” chart

The Social 50 chart has been "paused' since the end of 2020, so to complete this challenge we'll need to look at the most recent data available. This chart tracks the artists who are most engaged with on social media, and the pause is related to a change in the way that gather data. 

How I Found These

Since the Social 50 chart has been "paused" as of the end of 2020, I used the year end Social 50 chart from 2020 to identify artists, and chose from their most recent and popular songs on Spotify. Since UWM has access to the full text of Billboard magazine, this was a pretty simple challenge!
