Bruno Mars has just broken a massive milestone, setting the all-time record for monthly listeners on Spotify with an astounding 120,862,858 fans tuning in. This achievement makes him the most-streamed artist in Spotify’s history for monthly listeners, surpassing the previous record held by The Weeknd, who reached 120 million earlier this year.
The surge in Mars’ listeners follows the release of his recent singles “Die With A Smile” with Lady Gaga and his feature on Rose’s track “APT.” These releases mark his first new music since the acclaimed 2021 Grammy-winning album An Evening With Silk Sonic, a collaboration with Anderson .Paak. Mars has also amassed over 36 billion streams on Spotify, with 14 of his songs crossing the billion-stream threshold, edging him closer to record-holders Justin Bieber and Drake.
