In crafting a hit song, some artists work with only one writer, while others like to work with several. Pharrell, who has the longest running No. 1 song so far this year with “Happy,” wrote the tune alone and he prefers writing tighter than in large groups.

If you're Pitbull or Jason Derulo, probably eight — or more.
