{"id":6362,"slug":"panel-breadth-context-01oct2026","title":"How the 1 Oct 2026 panel pullback compares with the rest of the series","source":"Recomputed from the 26 archived africa-global daily panel snapshots (27 Aug to 1 Oct 2026)","source_url":"","source_type":"computed","method":"Afrobeats Wire has kept a daily snapshot of the africa-global 50-artist Spotify panel since 27 August 2026; 26 dated snapshots exist, 25 of them with a prior snapshot to compare against, and 18 of those 25 comparisons sit exactly one calendar day apart (the other 7 bridge a gap of 2 or 5 days, when a refresh was skipped, and are excluded from the ranking metrics here so that a multi-day move is not compared against single-day moves). For each of the 18 one-day comparisons this dataset's source script matches artists by Spotify ID, counts how many rose, fell or held flat in daily chart streams, and sums the panel's total streams on each side of the comparison. pct_fell is the share of that day's matched artists whose streams fell; panel_chg_pct is the percentage change in the panel's combined streams. breadth_rank_among_oneday ranks 1 Oct's pct_fell against the other 17 one-day comparisons, most artists falling first; depth_rank_among_oneday ranks 1 Oct's panel_chg_pct the same way, steepest drop first. median and mean figures describe the other 17 one-day comparisons' typical pct_fell and panel_chg_pct, for comparison against 1 Oct's own figures.","unit":"count \/ %","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.
