Which artists have managed to accumulate a large number of #1 hits in such a short span of time on your chart?
On mine, Eminem's last 11 of his 14 #1s were earned over a 27-month span, starting with "Crack A Bottle" in January 2009 and concluding with "Space Bound" in March 2011.
More impressively, Nicki Minaj has racked up 9 #1s in 17 months (1 year, 5 months), earning her first #1 with "I Get Crazy" in December 2009 and scoring her ninth chart-topper this week with "Super Bass". She's already tied for third most #1s on my chart. By comparison, out of the other three artists to have the same or more #1s than her, Eminem's first #1 was in October 2004 and his ninth was in May 2010, Lil Wayne's first was April 2008 and his ninth was January 2011, and 50 Cent's first was December 2004 and his ninth was January 2009.

For me, it's no surprise. In a span of 38 months from March 2008-May 2011, Kate Voegele has accumulated 10 #1's. Artists aren't as likely to get #1's as fast as on your chart as I rarely have artists featuring on everyone's songs getting #1 here. Britney Spears's first 5 #1's occurred in a 19-month span from February 1999-September 2000. Mike, just wondering, but how fast did Kanye have a lot of #1's on your chart?

Don't remember the exact stats but I'm pretty sure on my chart it would be Tori Amos, Oasis, & Madonna.

Mike, just wondering, but how fast did Kanye have a lot of #1's on your chart? Kanye had 8 #1s between September 2005 and October 2010. In the time it took Nicki Minaj to get her 9 #1s, Kanye was only up to his 3rd. On a related note, I'm surprised Jess didn't make an "EWW NICKI MINAJ" comment.

Celine Dion (1996) and Jesse McCartney (2006) have had 3 #1s in a calendar year. Between 2005 and 2010 Jesse has managed 8 #1s so he might be the fastest. Celine managed 6 between 1996 and 2000.
