Just like every year, Spotify has made the year’s rankings for the most successful artists and the most popular hits. In addition to personalized statistics, Spotify also collects data on the best artists, songs, albums and podcasts of the year. This Wednesday, the streaming platform revealed that Bad Bunny was the artist with the most listened to hits worldwide. This is a record that Bad Bunny is holding for the third year in a row. It garnered more than 18.5 billion streams this year. His album Un Verano Sin Ti ranked number one for the most streamed global albums and the song “Me Porto Bonito” ranked number three for the most streamed songs worldwide. His streams also doubled from last year. Meanwhile, Taylor Swift follows him as the second female artist with the most heard hits in the world. Swift also took the number one spot for most viral artists globally. After Bad Bunny and Swift, the third place is taken by Drake as one of the most listened to artists globally and the first for the artists with the most streamed hits in the United States.
This top list, without question, could not miss The Weekend and the BTS group, which are ranked fourth and fifth.
