For the third consecutive year Bad Bunny becomes the most listened to artist in the world according to Spotify. The Puerto Rican is followed by Taylor Swift and Drake at Spotify Wrapped 2022
Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, better known as Bad Bunny , continues to set trends in current reggaeton. And it is that just as he has filled stadiums, he has also done so with most of the Spotify playlists.
The Puerto Rican superstar once again dominated Spotify Wrapped, the streaming service’s annual roundup of the artists and songs its users spent the year listening to.
Followed by Drake, The Weeknd and BTS, Bad Bunny clinched the world title for the third year in a row, so to celebrate, Spotify has turned its heart button into the singer’s custom red heart icon.
Taylor Swift is in second place and is the only female artist in the top five.
According to data from the Spotify Wrapped campaign launched on November 30, the interpreter of “Moscow Mule” generated more than 18.5 billion streams in the last 11 months , double the amount he received in 2021.
Likewise their hit album “Un Verano Sin Ti”, which has since been nominated for Album of the Year at the upcoming Grammy Awards , was also Spotify’s most streamed album worldwide this year.
Elsewhere, Harry Styles’ single “As It Was” was the most streamed track, with the Glass Animals’ “Heat Waves” coming in second and Dave’s “Starlight” coming in third.
After the track’s revival thanks to “Stranger Things,” Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill” charted at number four, with Sam Fender’s “17 Going Under” at number five.
