Methodology

Raw Listening Index (RLI)

A 0-100 cross-platform listening score. Each platform's signal (Spotify popularity, Apple Music plays via Songstats, Deezer rank, iTunes position, Shazam count) is normalized within its weekly cohort then combined via a weighted geometric mean with a multi-platform consensus factor. Single-platform hits are penalized โ€” a track needs traction everywhere to top this chart.

Crown+ Score & Forecasts

A forward-looking score built from the RLI history (12 weeks) using Holt-Winters damped exponential smoothing. The 4-week forecast projects each track's trajectory. Labels (RISING / HOT / COOLING / EMERGING / STABLE / UNKNOWN) summarize the path. Confidence stars (โ˜… to โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…) flag forecasts with enough historical data to trust.
