BNYX re-enters Billboard’s Hot 100 Producers chart (dated Oct. 21) at No. 1, becoming the top producer in the U.S. for the first time, thanks to his work on Drake’s new No. 1 album on the Billboard 200, For All the Dogs.

BNYX (known off-stage as Benjamin Saint Ford) is credited as a producer on six songs on the latest Billboard Hot 100: five from For All the Dogs and one from Travis Scott’s Utopia. Leading the pack is the Dogs track “IDGAF,” featuring Yeat, at No. 2. BNYX solely produced the song, helping boost his chart points on Hot 100 Producers.

BNYX concurrently debuts at No. 3 on Hot 100 Songwriters, as he’s also credited as a co-writer on all six of the charted songs that he produced. Drake returns to No. 1 on the chart for a 12th week.

Billboard’s weekly Hot 100 Songwriters and Hot 100 Producers charts are based on total points accrued by a songwriter and producer, respectively, for each attributed song that appears on the Hot 100. As with Billboard’s yearly recaps, multiple writers or producers split points for each song equally (and the dividing of points will lead to occasional ties on rankings). Billboard launched its Hot 100 Songwriters and Hot 100 Producers charts, as well as genre-specific rankings for country, rock & alternative, R&B/hip-hop, R&B, rap, Latin, Christian, gospel and dance/electronic in June 2019. Alternative and hard rock joined in 2020, along with seasonal holiday rankings in 2022.
