Rolling Stone Charts
The ''Rolling Stone'' charts tabulated the relative weekly popularity of songs and albums in the United States. Chart data was powered by analytics firm Alpha Data (formerly BuzzAngle Music) and results were published on the website of pop culture magazine ''Rolling Stone'', both of which are properties of the United States-based Penske Media Corporation. The ''Rolling Stone'' charts competed with the ''Billboard'' charts, which are powered by Nielsen SoundScan and published by ''Billboard'' magazine. The ''Rolling Stone'' charts were differentiated by their emphasis in streaming media and daily updates while still publishing a weekly final version on the Monday following the Friday-to-Thursday tracking week. They were announced on May 7, 2019, and were expected to launch on May 13, but were ultimately launched on July 2. The charts were discontinued at the end of October 2021 after the October 21 issue, with ''Billboard'' having become a sister PMC publication to ''Rolling St ...
