{"id":10065,"slug":"spotify-panel-visibility-of-africas-largest-catalogues","title":"What the daily chart panel sees of the eight largest African catalogues on Spotify","source":"Afrobeats Wire data desk Spotify daily chart panel, 76 markets, 20 captures from 11 October to 11 November 2026, matched against the all-time artist leaderboard","source_url":"","source_type":"computed","method":"For each of the eight African artists inside rank 1,000 on Spotify\u2019s all-time artist leaderboard, every row of the desk\u2019s daily chart panel was counted. The panel is 76 published Spotify daily charts captured on 20 dates from 11 October to 11 November 2026; one market, Andorra, failed to collect. panel_lead_rows counts chart rows where the artist is the credited lead, matched on Spotify artist ID, which is exact. panel_feature_rows counts rows where the artist appears in the row\u2019s feature list, matched on name string, because the panel stores feature credits as names rather than IDs; that match is case-insensitive and exact on the whole string, so an alternate credit spelling would be missed and these counts are a floor. A row is one artist on one chart on one day, so an artist holding a position for twenty days contributes twenty rows. panel_lead_markets and panel_feature_markets count distinct charts, including the global chart, which the panel carries alongside the 75 territory charts. Stream columns are stated as whole streams. The leaderboard publishes the lifetime figure to one decimal place in millions, so every stream figure here is that published value multiplied by one million and is precise to the nearest hundred thousand streams, no further.","unit":"streams","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.
