However I am happy for Katy and am glad to see her songs are starting to see boosts in streaming, with a discography as big as hers it was always bound to happen.

It’s not completely useless when Spotify makes such a big deal out of it and it’s the first thing u see when entering an artist’s page. Just bc some artists (taylor for example) get more streams than the artists with more monthly listeners, doesn’t mean it’s useless. I would say you’re right if Katy has been only rising in ML and tanking in streams, but her whole discography has been rising since august last year, and that’s why I put that she’s in the top 10 most streamed female artists too.

Not “completely” useless I guess but the reason Spotify plasters that statistic everywhere is because it encourages lanes to pay the platform for more playlisting, which is the best way of increasing an artists monthly listeners. Spotify can’t convince labels to buy streams (since that’s not possible/illegal) but they can convince them to buy exposure/reach. That’s what monthly listeners is good for. Just reaching a wider audience. But when artists with one massive hit suddenly surge to the top 10 monthly listeners list, I never take that as an indicator of their discographies’ popularity. In the case of someone like Katy, though, you’re right — we can look at both the increase in streams AND the monthly listeners as a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawBreaker Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Monthly listeners is sucha joke I can't. The fact that Katy and Bad Bunny have the same amount of monthly listeners but one is doing ~28m streams daily while the other is doing 7m....

scenekiller Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 The switching on this website never fails to kill me Some of yall were SO quick to call her a flop, a fad, etc etc when it's clear her career was always just coming down from her peak (which was MASSIVE, so of course the comedown would be noticeable). Now suddenly it's "timeless" and "classics" as if those weren't ALWAYS the case. I don't even stan Kathryn all like that, but the hypocrisy on ATRL is...

Gagacharts Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 1 hour ago, Badgalbriel said: Monthly Listeners don't mean anything, unfortunately I have to agree with this. Monthly listeners are an idicator for the playlist reach of an artist. Dua for example has +550M playlist reach and 69M ML while taylor has ~350M playlist reach and 57M ML. In daily streams, Taylor gets nearly twice as much as Dua. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
