The number of female-identifying performers, songwriters, and producers on Billboard’s year-end Hot 100 chart was examined in the annual University of Southern California Annenberg Inclusion Initiative study.

According to a recent US survey, women are still “underrepresented and stereotyped” in popular music and there are incredibly few female-identifying songwriters and producers.

The year-end Billboard Hot 100 chart, which features the most commercially successful songs of the year, is examined in the annual University of Southern California Annenberg Inclusion Initiative report.

According to data cited by The Guardian, while the percentage of women represented in the chart increased by 28.7% last year to a total of 30%, only 14% of songwriters represented on the list were female, a fall of 14.3% from 2021.

The music industry is nowhere near reaching gender parity.

According to a new study, women lag behind men as artists, but the problem is particularly severe when it comes to fields such as songwriting, producing and engineering. https://t.co/hI6UaMZUHi

Of the 232 producers on the year-end chart, only 3.4% were women and one producer was non-binary. Since the Annenberg Report’s reporting period began in 2012, the percentage of female songwriters on Billboard’s year-end charts has never exceeded 14.4 percent in 2019.

She had the highest number of female producers on the list in 2019, when her 5% of year-end list producers were women. “This year is good news for female artists,” said Stacey L. Smith, who directed the report. We still have a long way to go.”

“Unless artists hire songwriters and producers, the numbers don’t move. It’s not just about allowing artists to celebrate their songs, it’s about identifying talent and hiring women for the roles. This is the only way we experience change. ”
