List of best-charting music artists in the United States

When adding artists, please place artist in order of Hot 100 hits. If the artist had 10 Hot 100 hits, 9 Top 40 hits, 8 Top 10 hits and 7 No. 1s, that artist should be inserted behind the artist having 10, 10, 9, 8 hits, etc. The Hot 100 rankings - not AC, R&B, UK - are the determiner of artist order. Please do not introduce any artist at the top of the list.

Empty columns mean the artist did not chart hit singles in those charts or genres of music.

This table can be sorted numerically or alphabetically on any category by clicking the icon below the heading.
