редактировать

This is a list of all the musicians and music groups who reached number one on the Billboard RB singles chart.

The chart was officially titled as follows:

Oct 1942 – Feb 1945 The Harlem Hit Parade
Feb 1945 – Jun 1949 Race Records
Jun 1949 – Oct 1958 Rhythm Blues Records
Oct 1958 – Nov 1963 Hot RB Sides
Nov 1963 – Jan 1965 No chart published
Jan 1965 – Aug 1969 Hot Rhythm Blues Singles
Aug 1969 – Jul 1973 Best Selling Soul Singles
Jul 1973 – Jun 1982 Hot Soul Singles
Jun 1982 – Oct 1990 Hot Black Singles
Oct 1990 – Jan 1999 Hot RB Singles
Jan 1999 – Dec 1999 Hot RB Singles Tracks
Dec 1999 – Apr 2005 Hot RB/Hip-Hop Singles Tracks
April 2005 – present Hot RB/Hip-Hop Songs

Lists are alphabetical by year.. NOTE :Annual totals may not sum to 52 weeks because:

  1. sometimes the No. 1 place was shared
  2. totals are counted from the start of the stay at No. 1 - for example, a hit which reached No. 1 in November 1945 and stayed there 11 weeks is included in the 1945 list but not 1946.

As well as the RB best sellers (BS) chart, between 1948-1957 there was also an RB juke box (JB) chart, and from 1955-58 there was an RB airplay (JY - jockeys) chart. These charts were consolidated into one in October 1958. Years at No. 1 on these different charts are listed where appropriate.
