Making Chart History
Music charts were introduced in Lebanon back in the early 1980s with the launch of the first private radio stations. However they were always subjective since no research or data compilation was involved and hence charts differed from source to source. Up until June 2011, there were between 10 to 12 different local music charts, if not more!
Driven by music passion, John Saad (founder and CEO of the Official Lebanese Top 20) decided that it was about time Lebanon had an official chart based on proper data. John Saad has been producing and hosting numerous chart shows for over 20 years on TV and radio and hence was in the ideal position to take on this challenge. Building on his expertise and knowledge of how other official charts work (like those of the Billboard Magazine in the US or the Official Charts Company in the UK), John Saad thoroughly examined the local music market. Since original music and CD sales are virtually non-existent in Lebanon, John Saad decided that a chart that focused on airplay would provide the most accurate chart. And now thanks to an exclusive partnership with Ipsos, the Official Lebanese Chart is here.
