Who’s Hot | The UpNext Week of 10/1–10/8
We like fun sh*t. So we decided to make a game of finding the future stars in the music industry.
How it works: Every users runs their own virtual record label. You sign up-and-coming artists to your virtual label, and compete with other labels based on your artists’ streaming, social, and concert data metrics. In this fantasy sports-like model, users that have refined their arm-chair A&R skills will quickly rise above those not fluent in internet clout culture.
Our UpNext Artist Score™ v1.0.1 measures the popularity of new & emerging artists by combining streaming, social media, and live concert data. Using this score we can calculate overall popularity, proximity to mainstream status, and weekly trend/score change.
Who’s Hot UpNext Tier 1
UpNext Tier 1 artists are established artist’s that are on the brink of mainstream status.
Who’s Hot UpNext Tier 2
UpNext Tier 2 artists are promising talent that have built a small but engaged following.
Who’s Hot UpNext Tier 3
UpNext Tier 3 artists are undiscovered, under-the-radar talent.
Please note that we are only capable of scoring artists that have been added to our database. Currently there are about 1.2 Million artists who have been added.
