Taylor Swift Becomes First Female Artist to Surpass 100 Billion Streams on Spotify
Taylor Swift has once again cemented her place in music history by becoming the first female artist to surpass 100 billion streams on Spotify.
A review of Swift’s Spotify profile confirms that she has crossed the remarkable milestone, setting a new record for female artists on the streaming platform.
According to ChartMasters, a leading music statistics tracking platform, Swift ranks as the second-highest earner on Spotify in the past year, generating approximately $7.71 million in royalties. She trails only Canadian rapper Drake, who holds the top spot with $7.72 million in earnings.
