Hot Gospel Songs
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Hot Gospel Songs is a music chart published weekly by Billboard magazine in the United States. It ranks the popularity of gospel songs using the same methodology developed for the Billboard Hot 100,[1] the magazine's flagship songs chart,[2] by incorporating data from the sales of downloads, streaming data,[3][4] and airplay across all monitored radio stations.[5]
From its inception in March 2005 through November 2013, the Hot Gospel Songs chart ranked the top songs only by overall audience impressions of songs played on gospel music radio stations.[1] Beginning with the chart dated December 7, 2013, the chart follows the same methodology used for the Hot 100 to compile its rankings. The Gospel Airplay chart was launched simultaneously to continue to monitor airplay of songs on gospel radio.[6]
The first number-one song on the chart was "We Must Praise" by J Moss in the chart dated March 19, 2005.[7] The current number-one song on the chart is "That's My King" by CeCe Winans.[8]
