Spotify Wrapped 2025: was Taylor Swift the top artist on Spotify in 2025? Full top five

• Spotify Wrapped has arrived for users around the globe.
• The streamer has also revealed its most-listened-to artists in 2025.
• But did Taylor Swift make it a three-peat in the top spot?

A familiar name has reclaimed the top spot on Spotify’s most-listened-to artist list - but it is not Taylor Swift. The pop icon has been dethroned and will not complete a three-peat.

The Eras tour star and mega-famous singer sat at the pinnacle of the streaming giant’s charts in 2023 and 2024. However, she has missed out on claiming it for a third year in a row.

Who was the top artist on Spotify in 2025?

Taylor Swift had claimed the top spot on the artist chart in both 2023 and 2024, but has not managed to complete a huge three-peat and she has slipped down to second place this year. It comes despite the release of her latest album Life of a Showgirl earlier in the year.

Bad Bunny has claimed the top spot for the fourth time in his career. He was the most listened to artist around the world in 2025, Spotify has revealed.

The Puerto Rican hitmaker had previously held the title for three consecutive years from 2020 to 2022. Back in 2022, Spotify celebrated the Bunny three-peat by presenting him with a ring for each year he was Global Top Artist.

The streamer says it has continued that tradition by giving him a fourth ring during a tour stop in the Dominican Republic this year. He also had the top album in 2025.

Taylor Swift was in 2nd spot - although she was still the most listened to artist in the United States. They were followed by The Weeknd (third), Drake (fourth), and Billie Eilish (fifth).

What was the top song on Spotify in 2025?

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ smash hit “Die With A Smile” took the title of top song globally with over 1.7 billion streams, while ROSÉ and Bruno Mars captured the number-three spot with “APT.” Billie Eilish’s “BIRDS OF A FEATHER” climbed from number three in 2024 to the number-two spot this year, showing its lasting appeal.

On the global albums list, Bad Bunny’s DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS came out on top this year. But the influence of the screen was also undeniable, as KPop Demon Hunters (Soundtrack from the Netflix Film) captured the number-two spot. And showing the staying power of a blockbuster release, Billie Eilish’s HIT ME HARD AND SOFT and Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet both returned to the top five for the second year in a row.

SZA’s SOS Deluxe: Lana was also in the top five albums around the globe. Surprisingly, Taylor Swift didn’t have an album or song in either of the global top ten in 2025.
