The Billboard Year-End chart is a chart published by Billboard which denotes the top song of each year as determined by the publication's charts. Since 1946, Year-End charts have existed for the top songs in pop, R&B, and country, with additional album charts for each genre debuting in 1956, 1966, and 1965, respectively.
Note - Mariah Carey has charted at least one song every year on the Hot 100 since her debut with "Vision of Love" in 1990, except for 2007. If she had charted in 2007, she would have the record for most consecutive years, with an active streak of 35 years. As of present, she is the only artist with multiple streaks over 10 years.
