Spotify Wrapped – it’s finally here. And whether you were perched on the edge of your seat over the last few days, anxiously waiting to share with the world just how cool you are, or you were dreading the inevitable reveal that you’ve actually been listening to more Girls Aloud than you care to admit, the data doesn’t lie.
Accessing your own personal Spotify Wrapped is simple enough, but what’s the whole world been listening to this year? Well, we’re here to tell you.
Who was the most-streamed artist on Spotify in 2024?
If you’ve been online at all in 2024, it probably won’t surprise you to learn that Ms Taylor Swift has, for the second year in a row, claimed the crown as the most-streamed artist in the world. She released The Tortured Poets Department back in April, and its The Anthology edition topped the most-streamed album list this year. 1989 (Taylor’s Version) and Lover also made the ranking. This year was partly defined by the Eras Tour phenomenon, which probably helped a fair bit.
As for the most-streamed song? That crown goes to Sabrina Carpenter for her ridiculously addictive single ‘Espresso’, which was followed by Benson Boone’s ‘Beautiful Things’ and ‘BIRDS OF A FEATHER’ by Billie Eilish.
But there’s plenty more where that came from. Below are the top 10 lists of this year’s most-streamed artists, albums, songs, podcasts and audiobooks, as well as the most viral songs of 2024 (tracks most-frequently shared to social media platforms from Spotify). Here we go!
