If you’ve opened Spotify at all this year, chances are you’ve already heard some of these songs on repeat. 2025 has been wild for music — new records are being set almost every month, TikTok is still turning random tracks into global hits overnight, and artists from every corner of the world are climbing the charts.
A lot of people keep asking: Who’s the most streamed artist on Spotify right now? Or even better: What’s the most played song in 2025? Well, I’ve done the digging, and here’s a breakdown of the songs that everyone (literally everyone) seems to be streaming this year.

🔥 Why Streams Matter More Than Ever
Streaming isn’t just numbers on a screen anymore. For an artist, Spotify plays can mean sold-out tours, viral moments, and even a song becoming the soundtrack of the year. With over 600 million listeners, Spotify basically decides what’s trending worldwide.
Think about it: when a song makes it to the Global Top 50, or when it pops up in ten different TikToks on your For You page, you know it’s about to explode.

🎤 A Quick Look at the Big Hits
- Abracadabra – Lady Gaga
Gaga did it again. This track feels like a mix of her old-school pop magic with a futuristic twist. It’s no wonder it’s leading the pack. - VeLDÁ – Bad Bunny
If there’s one artist who never misses, it’s Bad Bunny. VeLDÁ is everywhere — clubs, cars, and probably your neighbor’s playlist too. - like JENNIE – Jennie
Jennie has stepped out of BLACKPINK’s shadow in the best way possible. This track is pure confidence and fans clearly can’t get enough. - Sports Car – Tate McRae
If you’ve scrolled TikTok this year, you’ve seen this song. Tate’s rise has been insane, and Sports Car proves she’s here to stay. - undressed – sombr
Honestly, this one came out of nowhere. A small indie drop that turned into a streaming giant thanks to TikTok edits and fan love. - Don’t Say You Love Me – Jin
Jin’s solo work hits differently. Emotional, powerful, and it clearly connected with fans worldwide. - Te Quería Ver – Alemán
Latin rap is pushing boundaries, and Alemán is one of the reasons why. His raw style and flow keep this song on repeat. - São Paulo – The Weeknd
Dark, moody, and addictive — exactly what we expect from The Weeknd. - Lapada Dela – Matheus Fernandes
Brazilian funk is blowing up outside Brazil now, and this track is leading the wave. - NOKIA – Drake
Drake knows how to tap nostalgia. With a title like NOKIA, you already feel the 2000s vibes, but the sound is still very 2025.
🌍 The Viral Boost
Not every viral track makes the top 10, but a few deserve a shoutout:
- Apt. – ROSÉ & Bruno Mars: This collab smashed records and hit 1B streams faster than anyone expected.
- Baby (Is It a Crime) – Rema: Afrobeats continues to dominate globally, and Rema is leading the charge.
- Ordinary – Alex Warren: A softer song that unexpectedly became a summer favorite.
📈 Why These Songs Blew Up
- TikTok & Reels — If you hear the same 15-second snippet ten times a day, you’ll probably stream the full song too.
- Language doesn’t matter anymore — English, Spanish, Korean, Portuguese… hits are truly global now.
- Playlists push discovery — Spotify’s algorithms are basically free marketing.
- Dedicated fanbases — K-pop, Latin, Afrobeats communities stream with purpose.
- Big names still dominate — Gaga, The Weeknd, Drake… they drop, the world listens.
👑 Who’s the Most Streamed Artist in 2025?
So far this year:
- Taylor Swift still holds the crown overall.
- Bad Bunny is the Latin king.
- The Weeknd continues to deliver consistent hits.
- Jennie & Jin prove that K-pop solo acts can carry global charts.
