Written by djfrosty on December 13, 2024
For the first time in his career, Jack Antonoff is the No. 1 Hot 100 Producer of the year.
He finishes 2024 as the No. 1 Hot 100 Producer thanks to the chart performance of 31 production credits on the Billboard Hot 100 during the 2024 chart eligibility period (charts dated Oct. 28, 2023-Oct. 19, 2024), all of which were by either Taylor Swift or Sabrina Carpenter. Of those 31 songs, five hit No. 1: Swift’s “Anti-Hero,” “Cruel Summer,” “Is It Over Now (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault)” and “Fortnight,” featuring Post Malone, as well as Carpenter’s “Please Please Please.”

Here’s a look at all 31 of Antonoff’s production credits on the Hot 100 during the 2024 tracking period, which all contribute to his placement on the year-end ranking. Note that some of the songs listed below are holdovers from previous years—“Anti-Hero,” for example, debuted and peaked at No. 1 on the Hot 100 in November 2022, but continued to chart until Nov. 4, 2023 (its final week on the chart before dropping off). As such, its final two weeks on the chart count towards Antonoff’s 2024 year-end Hot 100 Producers ranking because it was still charting. It’s worth noting that, on many of the songs below, Antonoff is credited as either the sole producer or co-producer with Swift, helping boost his chart results (as he doesn’t share credit with many other individuals).
“Anti-Hero,” notably, is the only song on the list below that didn’t peak during the eligibility period. “Cruel Summer” topped the Hot 100 on Oct. 28, 2023, the first week of the period.

Swift herself finishes just below Antonoff at No. 2 on the 2024 year-end Hot 100 Producers ranking, thanks to her production credits on each of her 55 charting solo songs during the eligibility period (she tallied one additional chart entry in the period, as a featured act on Gracie Abrams’ “Us,” though she isn’t listed as a producer). Swift also finished at No. 2 on the 2023 Hot 100 Producers list, behind Joey Moi.
After Swift, Dan Nigro is the No. 3 Hot 100 Producer of 2024, thanks to 16 production credits during the eligibility period by Chappell Roan and Olivia Rodrigo. Leading the way is Roan’s “Good Luck, Babe!” which finishes as the No. 18 Hot 100 Song of the year.
Finishing out the top five, Finneas ranks as the No. 4 Hot 100 Producer of 2024, thanks to his continued work with Billie Eilish on her album Hit Me Hard and Soft, and Zach Bryan finishes at No. 5.
Billboard’s year-end music recaps represent aggregated metrics for each artist, title, label and music contributor on the weekly charts from Oct. 28, 2023, through Oct. 19, 2024. Rankings for Luminate-based recaps reflect equivalent album units, airplay, sales or streaming during the weeks that the titles appeared on a respective chart during the tracking year. Any activity registered before or after a title’s chart run isn’t considered in these rankings. That methodology detail, and the October-October time period, account for some of the difference between these lists and the calendar-year recaps that are independently compiled by Luminate.
