قوائم "بيلبورد"
Explanation:
Billboard is a specialized music magazine that publishes a number of "music charts" i.e. Billboard Hot 100, Billboard 200, Billboard Radio Songs... etc.
Since Billboard is a brand, it's always a good idea to transliterate the name into the target language and if necessary add something to explain it with.
In this case, you might like to translate it into: قائمة / قوائم "بيلبورد" للأغاني الأكثر مبيعاً

Asker: Dear Targamat. The Billboard is a US magazine. So, we cannot translate a proper name. It has to be transliterated. So, can we say يتصدر قائمة تصنيفات ... ؟

thank you Dima. I made a juxtaposition from your answer and IOMS.
Notes to answerer
Asker: Yes Dima. It was also my viewpoint to Targamat to transliterate the name is I was also advised by Google that it refers to Billboard widespread music magazine. Thanks a lot. My concern was about "charts" which I also chose to term قوائم تصنيف أو قوائم بيلبورد
