Billboard magazine - History

When founded in 1894, Billboard magazine was originally concerned with carnival entertainment, but music coverage grew to the point that its earlier subjects were spun off into a separate journal in the 1950s.

On January 4, 1936 Billboard magazine published its first music hit parade and on July 20, 1940 the first Music Popularity Chart was calculated. Since 1958 the Hot 100 has been published, combining single sales and radio airplay.

To this day, the most successful acts on Billboard's charts are Mariah Carey, Bing Crosby, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and Madonna.

Billboard magazine - Radio countdown programs

For many years, the weekly syndicated radio program "American Top 40," hosted by Casey Kasem (1970 to August 1988 and the middle of 1998 to 2004) and Shadoe Stevens (August 1988 to Feb. 1994), played the top 40 songs on that Billboard chart in reverse order; in 2004, Kasem was replaced with American Idol host Ryan Seacrest.

A country music version of "American Top 40" – called "American Country Countdown" – is hosted by radio personality Bob Kingsley, and has been on the air since 1973.
