This year's Spotify Wrapped rankings have revealed that Bad Bunny is the world’s most-streamed artist, earning 19.8 billion streams in 2025. He dethrones Taylor Swift, who led the list the previous two years, returning to the top after dominating from 2020 to 2022. The Weeknd ranks third worldwide, followed by Drake at fourth and Billie Eilish in fifth place. Bad Bunny’s ‘Debí Tirar Más Fotos’ also topped the global albums list, with Billie Eilish’s ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft’ in third place and Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Short n’ Sweet’ in fifth. In the US, Taylor Swift leads the artist rankings, with Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s ‘Luther’ the country’s top song and Morgan Wallen’s ‘I’m the Problem’ the top album. Spotify and Bad Bunny will celebrate his milestone achievement with a global film launch, on-platform easter eggs, and special fan experiences. Announced in September, Bad Bunny’s performance at Super Bowl LX will mark the first halftime show sung entirely in Spanish. Right-wing commentators and politicians, including President Donald Trump, have criticized his selection over his Spanish-language music and criticism of immigration policies. The Puerto Rican artist recently announced that he will be avoiding US stops on his next tour due to ICE-related concerns.
