If you like this ranking, feel free to contribute by setting up artists’ details , and help keep the filters up to date.
Believe it or not, the current most-followed artist on Spotify isn’t a Western pop star: it’s Arijit Singh , the king of Bollywood ballads. While multiple account creations in regions like India may slightly boost numbers, his lead over global icons is still striking.
Right behind him is Taylor Swift , whose recent surge has cemented her as the most-followed female artist on the platform.
Former leader Ed Sheeran is still in the top 3, even if his momentum has slowed. He was the first to reach 100 million followers back in July 2022 , and held the top spot for years.
Before him, Rihanna had made history as the first artist to cross 10 million followers in April 2017. When Ed Sheeran dropped Divide later that year, he overtook her. Despite releasing little in the last decade, Rihanna still hovers near the top 10.
Ariana Grande also once led among female artists. Today, she sits at #5, just behind Billie Eilish , the youngest star in this elite group. All five have now passed the 100 million follower mark.
There’s a fierce contest among rap giants too: Drake and Eminem are both holding strong inside the top 10. And Bad Bunny , the face of Latin music, sits right behind them at #9.
It’s All About the Music
When it comes to measuring an artist’s success, forget social media likes and follower counts. What really counts is how many people follow them on streaming platforms , and Spotify is by far the biggest player.
There’s no chatting or posting on Spotify. People follow artists to stay in the loop when new music drops, to mark themselves as fans, or simply to keep easy access to their favorite songs. In every case, one thing is clear: followers are far more likely to actually stream the music .
The Predictive Power of Followers
Whether you’re an artist, manager, label exec, or fan—even if you already know an artist’s streaming numbers—follower count is a crucial metric. Why? Because it points to the future , not just the past.
When someone hits “Follow,” they’re signaling ongoing interest. They’re likely to come back again and again. The data backs this up: followers consistently stream more , and for longer periods.
For major stars, fast follower growth means strong catalog performance ahead. On the flip side, if follower growth stalls, it could be a sign that an artist is fading from the spotlight.
This is just as true for new artists. If two rising acts go viral, check their daily follower gains. The one attracting more followers is more likely to turn that momentum into a lasting career, not just a one-hit wonder moment.
Curious about who might be the next big thing? Spotting tomorrow’s stars often starts with tracking today’s fastest-rising names. And that’s exactly where we come in.
We monitor Spotify artists with more than 50,000 followers and analyze how quickly their fanbase is growing , both in raw numbers and in percentage terms. Our system highlights the names generating real momentum right now.
Check out the top 100 and discover who’s catching fire.
