Last month, he also achieved another major Spotify achievement, as he earned the most streamed song on the platform. The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” broke Ed Sheeran’s “Shape Of You” record to become the most streamed track on the platform.
The Weeknd has achieved yet another impressive streaming milestone, following the release of his new remix of the song “Die for You” with Ariana Grande. The collaboration marks the fourth time the duo has worked together, with previous hits including “Love Me Harder,” “Off the Table,” and the 2021 remix of “Save Your Tears.” This latest achievement comes during The Weeknd’s Starboy-era resurgence.
The second artist with the most monthly listeners on Spotify is Miley Cyrus, with 82.51 million, followed by Taylor Swift with 80.33. Rihanna, who performed at the NFL Super Bowl halftime show, is at number four with 79.44 monthly listeners.
