• All acts are listed alphabetically.
• Solo artists are alphabetized by last name, Groups by group name excluding "A", "An", and "The".
• Each act's total of number-one Hot 100 hits is shown after their name. Pre-Hot 100 songs are not counted.
• All artists who are mentioned in song credits are listed here; this includes one-time pairings of otherwise solo artists and those appearing as featured (for example both Nelly and Kelly Rowland get credit for "Dilemma", both Brandy and Monica get a credit for "The Boy Is Mine", etc.). Exceptions to this rule:
• Miami Sound Machine's only number one was officially credited to "Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine". Estefan's total reflects her solo hits only.
• Paul McCartney's hits with Wings are credited to "Wings" even though many of them were released as "Paul McCartney & Wings". McCartney's total is only from hits not attributed to Wings or the Beatles.
• Both Wham! and George Michael get one credit for "Careless Whisper". Technically the song is a solo recording and was released as such in many parts of the world except the U.S., where it charted as "Wham! featuring George Michael".
• Artists associated with a group who reached number one, yet have their own solo page in Wikipedia, are not listed here unless they hit number one as a solo artist.
