Great Musical Moments From The Top Hot 100 Artists
On August 4, 1958, Billboard launched the Hot 100. Sixty years later, not only did it change pop music, but the chart is the gold-standard of America’s top songs on a weekly basis. Attaining a spot on that list and earning a No. 1 spot is a serious hill to climb. But for some musicians, they were able to reach those heights while achieving other success in their careers.
Billboard released a Top Hot 100 artist list to honor musics best. Who is one of the most decorative Grammy winners or the musician who recorded two albums before turning 20? Here are the musicians who left us with great music while gaining some big achievements.
