Momentum
This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.
Why it's here
It was Luther Vandross's debut single, which he wrote and produced himself, and it hit number one on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. [1] It was ranked number 466 on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time in September 2021. [2] The song has been sampled by artists including Will Smith, Queen Pen, Keyshia Cole, Paul Kalkbrenner, and Fat Joe with DJ Khaled and Amorphous. [3]
In culture
Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.

City pickups
City charts record their parent country as the market, so these do not add to the market count above. One line per country: how many of its rooms picked the song up, and the best of them.
