The 33-year-old singer is the first to reach such a record on the streaming platform.
Taylor Swift accumulates records. Tuesday August 29, the singer became “the first female artist in Spotify history to reach 100 million monthly listeners”, explains the streaming platform on its Instagram account. The interpreter of Blank Space now occupies second place in the ranking, ahead of Bad Bunny (79 million), Ed Sheeran (77 million), Dua Lipa (77 million) and Drake (76.3 million). The Weeknd retains its title of most popular artist with 109.6 million listeners per month.
The news is not surprising. In recent years, Taylor Swift has established herself as one of the most influential stars in the music industry. Last July, the release of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) earned her a place at the top of the famous Billboard 200. In total, the singer placed 12 albums at the top of the chart, becoming the female artist with the most number 1 albums in sales, ahead of Barbra Streisand, of After Billboard .

Taylor Swift has also become “the first living woman and solo artist” to have 11 albums placed simultaneously in the top 200 of the ranking since August 1963. The absolute record is – still and always – held by Prince with 19 albums on the Billboard, as of May 14, 2016, shortly after his death.
Currently, the singer continues her world tour titled The Eras Tour . She will be at La Défense Arena in Paris on May 9, 10, 11 and 12, 2024 to present four exceptional shows.
