Understanding Spotify’s top artists rankings

Most streamed artists vs monthly listeners

When it comes to measuring an artist’s popularity on Spotify, there’s often confusion between different metrics. For example, publications like Guinness World Records frequently highlight the artist with the most monthly listeners as the “most streamed” or “most popular” on the platform.

In reality, the most streamed artists on Spotify are those who have amassed the highest total playcounts, reflecting their cumulative success over time. This distinction is significant because Spotify does not publicly share total stream counts for artists, focusing instead on monthly listeners – a metric that comes with technical limitations.

Spotify also uses a popularity index that ranks artists based on recent streams, but this data isn’t openly available. As a result, the true cumulative impact of artists on the platform often goes unnoticed.

Since 2020, this page has provided a clear and updated view of the artists who have generated the most streams on Spotify. With a daily refreshed top 1,000 list, it offers insight into long-term streaming trends rather than short-term fluctuations.

A brief history of Spotify’s artists milestones

Back in late 2015, EDM artist Kygo made waves by becoming the first artist to reach 1 billion streams in a year, a record-breaking achievement at the time. Fast forward to today, and streaming milestones have reached unprecedented heights, with several artists now closing in on the remarkable 100 billion streams mark.

For years, Drake led the pack, becoming the first artist to achieve 30 billion streams in April 2020, followed by 40 billion in August 2021 and 50 billion in September 2022. By December 2023, his total had surpassed 70 billion.

However, in February 2024, Taylor Swift claimed the title of Spotify’s most-streamed artist ever. Her meteoric rise has been nothing short of extraordinary: from 11.9 billion streams in 2020 to over 90 billion by late 2024. Notably, she was still trailing Ariana Grande among female artists as recently as a few years ago.

Today’s top three is rounded out by Bad Bunny, the leader among Latin artists, whose dominance reflects the global reach of reggaeton and Latin music. Taylor Swift and Bad Bunny have also consistently alternated as the platform’s most popular daily artists for several years.

More top artists

Among groups, BTS leads with their exceptional success in K-pop. In the realm of legacy acts, rock legends Queen remain the top performers, demonstrating the enduring appeal of classic hits.

When it comes to averages, Harry Styles stands out. Despite releasing only 36 distinct songs across his solo career, each one has exceeded 100 million streams, securing him a place among the top 40 most-streamed artists overall.

Most streamed artists across all on-demand audio platforms

While Spotify dominates the streaming conversation, it’s important to note that other major platforms, such as Apple Music and Amazon Music, are relevant as well. Yet, they don’t share playcount data publicly.

To bridge this gap, we’ve set up advanced algorithms to estimate comprehensive on-demand audio streams across platforms. These calculations provide a broader view of an artist’s streaming footprint worldwide.

This ranking is a reflection of years of analysis, consistently validated against certified results. It offers fans and industry professionals alike a reliable snapshot of streaming achievements across the globe.
