While it is rare for artists to record triple-digit entries on the Hot 100, it has become more common since the ranking began to include streaming components in 2007. As a result, some artists have been able to chart high numbers of songs on the Hot 100 upon release high profile album. The model contrasts with previous decades, when acts generally promoted one single at a time to market and radio. This change in consumption explains why artists have been able to write many songs in short periods in recent years.
