It was 20 years ago today that Spotify began to play. And to mark the streaming service’s big anniversary, for the first time ever on Thursday (April 23) Spotify shared its list of the most streamed artists, songs, albums, podcasts and audiobooks in its history.
Some of the artists at the top of the music categories won’t surprise anyone. You would expect Taylor Swift, Bad Bunny, Drake, the Weeknd and Ed Sheeran to feature prominently given their domination during the streaming era. There are, of course, plenty of veteran acts in the mix on the most-streamed of all time list as well — Rihanna, Eminem, Coldplay, Kanye West — but the real interesting mix is on the top 20 most streamed albums tally.
That’s where Benito’s smash 2022 album, Un Verano Sin Ti, with a record 22 billion total streams to date, is No. 1, followed by The Weeknd’s 2016 album Starboy, Ed Sheeran’s ≠ (Deluxe), Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour and another one by The Weeknd, After Hours. Abel is tops on the most-streamed songs tally as well, with “Blinding Lights” coming in at No. 1, followed by Sheeran’s “Shape of You,” The Neighbourhood’s “Sweater Weather,” the Weeknd and Daft Punk’s “Starboy” and Harry Styles’ “As It Was.”
