Spotify’s monthly listener count shows how many unique users streamed an artist in the last 28 days. Unlike total streams or followers, this metric reflects current popularity and active listenership, making it one of the clearest ways to measure who dominates the platform right now.
The list highlights a mix of established superstars like Bruno Mars, The Weeknd, and Bad Bunny, as well as emerging global artists gaining momentum through viral hits, playlists, and social media exposure. It shows that streaming has become the main way fans consume music worldwide.
Pop, hip-hop, and Latin music continue to dominate the rankings, but rock, EDM, Bollywood, and alternative acts also feature strongly. This diversity demonstrates how Spotify’s global audience spans genres and cultures.
The Top 500 list below provides a snapshot of who’s being listened to the most worldwide. These numbers change daily as new releases drop and trends shift, but they give a strong sense of who currently rules the streaming charts.
