Promising artists
are ranked based on their popularity during the week on the Emerging
Artists chart. The formula used is the same as the one used for the
Billboard Artist 100 chart, which includes multiple charts to measure
the activity of an artist. These charts include the Social 50,
Billboard 200, as well as the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The Emerging
Artists chart, however, does not include artists or bands that have
managed a place in the top 25, of either the Billboard 200 or the Hot
100 charts. The chart also does not include artists, who have managed
at least 2 entries in the top 10 of the ‘Hot’ genre charts and/or
‘Top’ album genre rankings.

Corrupt Human Love’ has also managed to obtain top spot on the
Vinyl Albums Chart, as the set managed to sell 3,000 vinyl copies.
