MGD: Music Genre Dataset Over recent years, the world has seen a dramatic change in the way people consume music, moving from physical records to streaming services. Since 2017, such services have become the main source of revenue within the global recorded music market. Therefore, this dataset is built by using data from Spotify. It provides a weekly 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 December 2019, considering eight of the top 10 music markets according to IFPI: United States (1st), Japan (2nd), United Kingdom (3rd), Germany (4th), France (5th), Canada (8th), Australia (9th), and Brazil (10th). 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 Genre Mapping: Genre mapping from Spotify genres to super-genres Artist Networks: Success-based artist collaboration networks Artists: Some artist data Hit Songs: Hit Song data and features Charts: Enhanced data from Spotify Weekly Top 200 Charts This dataset was originally built for a conference paper at ISMIR 2020.
