Bad Bunny is Spotify’s most streamed artist globally for a third consecutive year.
According to the streaming service’s annual report, Spotify Wrapped, Bad Bunny continued to be the most streamed artist in 2020 and 2021, holding onto the top spot. The sad-face cyclops heart from his most recent album, Un Verano Sin Ti, is now the temporary heart button on Spotify to commemorate the milestone. Additionally, Bad Bunny had two songs on the list of the most streamed songs worldwide, with “Tit Me Preguntó” coming in at No. 5 and “Me Porto Bonito” featuring Chencho Coreleon coming in at No. 4.
The second most streamed artist of the year, after Bad Bunny, is Taylor Swift, whose chart-topping tenth studio album Midnights was released last month. Drake, who has released two full-length albums this year, came in at No. 3, while The Weeknd’s Dawn FM propelled him to No. 4. The fifth most streamed artist in 2022 was K-Pop phenomenon BTS, rounding off the top five with another global phenomenon.
Un Verano Sin Ti by Bad Bunny, unsurprisingly, had the most streams of the year. On the Her Loss track “Major Distribution,” Drake rapped, “Bad Bunny numbers, it’s a robbery.” He still ranked third when only the United States was taken into account, trailing Drake and Taylor Swift.
