The swifties' meltdown in here.  

Of course, Dua has a huge advantage in monthly listeners' compared to Swift when Dua has a much wider demographic appeal and is actually global. 

 

Ans also WOW at Rihanna!

Monthly listeners 

Dua - 69.6M

Taylor - 56.5M 

 

Playlist reach 

Dua - 603M

Taylor - 386M

 

Monthly streams

Taylor - 888M

Dua - 455M

 

Looks like Dua's much wider demographic and global reach gives her huge advantage as long as it is playlisting and monthly listeners but it is not the case with total streams

Monthly listeners is a pretty worthless statistic, as it's easily hijacked by artists that are positioned well on editorial playlists (so basically either the nostalgia artists who were getting hits when Spotify was first getting big and have lingered at the bottom or those whose labels are paving their way to success with dollar bills). An artist like Camila, who isn't scraping 6 million a day should not be over acts like Billie who regularly clear 12-13M but aren't playlisted nearly as well.

Aw… not Rihanna’s fault that she has double the amount of hits and classics her peers have. It’s only right!

 

So many old hits that she’s outstreaming your fave who has a new single on the radio and dropped multiple projects in the past 2 years. ?

Yes, indeed.

Because Russian Roulette (130M) and SOS (198M) are definitely hugely successful songs which deserve a spot on that big playlist instead of others.

I never said something else. Dua having far more monthly listeners shouldn't even make you that insecure, no?

Oh you are the one to talk about insecurity

I don’t see it for this stat

[Jude]

Y'all need to touch some grass. It's not that serious.

[Duanielipa]

Why all the need for meltdowns and thinkpieces when literally all it tells you is how many people listened to an artist last month  
 

Obviously it’s affected by playlists but seems to mostly just show who has current global hits. Camila has Bam Bam smashing whilst Billie hasn’t had a hit since HTE died down so obviously Camila will have more monthly listeners.

She's the only one that hasn't put out new music in 6 years.

Of course Gaga and Katy are going to have 300M+ reach when both released multiple albums and standalone singles since then.

And Rihanna have more public friendly hits that people still use everywhere, its not her problem that there are huge demands for everything about her. Beyonce had almost same amount of playlist reach as Billie (only 4M different) but she's no where near top 10, why is that? I guess playlist isn't everything after all and people actually gonna listen to what they enjoy and love.

Not the defensive Taylor stans at the top of the thread while Tay is 2nd on the list 

Some of them are actually stans of artists who barely made it to this list hiding behind Taylor

The irony  

 

Worry about YOUR fave being #2 when it comes to playlists reach and #14 in daily streams, missy. Damn Damn.

Why the f*ck are you so pressed? 
 

Literally fuming over the fact that a woman who hasn’t released music in YEARS is still dominating streams, both in daily numbers and monthly listeners. 
 

What is their to be so bothered about?

 

Go and stream HMH.

Yeah, Taylor is #2 but still a meaningless list even if she tops it. Good to compare with monthly streams list and see who's paying more per stream but that's it.

The straights LOVE Dua

OT: All these successful artists and Camila Cabello  

well why would she? She only released one album and we all know she will top this list once her sophomore is out

That’s it though…

 

We can see who is dominating daily streams and monthly listeners.

 

• Swift is - #1 in Daily Streams/#2 in Monthly Listeners

 

• Fenty is - #7 in Daily Streams/#5 in Monthly Listeners, and this is with no music out. 

 

So is Lipa, Cat and Eilish.

 

The only anomaly here is Cabello whose playlisting completely surpasses her actual daily streams. 
 

Some of the users melting down in here makes no sense, and it’s always the stans of girls who can’t compare to others.

Probably because the straights could care less about streaming the same song on repeat for the sake of the numbers. 
 

Taylor has the gays and little girls keeping their Spotify on loop.

For someone who hasn’t released an album in 6 years, Rihanna’s playlisting is just fine. Swift’s playlisting is also fine for the amount of music she’s released in the last few years alone. 

How can you seriously argue that Taylor (who has released many huge projects in the last years and who has been the most streamed female artists for 180 days straight) has "fine playlisting" when she's in the same ball game as people who haven't released in YEARS and don't even get half of her daily streams  

 

The fact that someone like Katy Perry (who was last relevant when Obama was in office and struggles to get a fourth of Taylor's streams) has more playlisting than Taylor should tell you all you need to know

You are an expert at straights' music listening behaviours, aren't you
