MGD+: An Enhanced Music Genre Dataset with Success-based Networks

This dataset is built by using data from Spotify. It provides a daily chart of the 200 most streamed songs for each country and territory it is present, as well as an aggregated global chart. 

Considering that countries behave differently when it comes to musical tastes, we use chart data from global and regional markets from January 2017 to March 2022 (downloaded from CSV files), considering 68 distinct markets.

We also provide information about the hit songs and artists present in the charts, such as all collaborating artists within a song (since the charts only provide the main ones) and their respective genres, which is the core of this work. MGD+ also provides data about musical collaboration, as we build collaboration networks based on artist partnerships in hit songs. Therefore, this dataset contains:

Genre Networks: Success-based genre collaboration networks

Artist Networks: Success-based artist collaboration networks

Artists: Some artist data

Hit Songs: Hit Song data and features

Charts: Enhanced data from Spotify Daily Top 200 Charts
