Posted August 17, 20204 yr @1295369578483273728Â @1295369841013030919Â Today Ariana has two reasons to celebrate! Not only is it the 2nd year anniversary of 'Sweetener' but she has also surpassed Rihanna as the most streamed female of ALL-TIME on Spotify with over 20.5 billion streams to her name *.* congrats Ari :cheer:Â Good excuse to stream her music some more today x
August 17, 20204 yr Author She really has become such a juggernaut over the past few years. I think the men above her are Drake, Ed Sheeran and Post Malone!  Excited to see how her next era will perform. My top 10 most played Ariana songs right now: 01. God is a woman - 117 02. no tears left to cry - 97 03. 7 rings - 95 04. thank u, next - 88 05. Break Free - 82 06. break up with your girlfriend, i'm bored - 78 07. One Last Time - 73 08. Problem - 72 09. Love Me Harder - 68 10. NASA - 67 A very large percentage of these will be Spotify streams as I stopped using iTunes a few years ago!
August 17, 20204 yr Deserved tbh. Â Crazy to think Rihanna was the #1 when she's only released one album in the Spotify era.
August 17, 20204 yr Crazy to think Rihanna was the #1 when she's only released one album in the Spotify era. I was just thinking that! And even that's coming up to 5 years ago now.
August 17, 20204 yr SO well deserved, good for her!! :wub:  and to take over such a name as 'Rihanna' just screams POWERFUL, despite the fact RiRi hasn't released anything recently, it's still so huge. I can only assume Taylor is 3rd?
August 17, 20204 yr An amazing achievement! :wub: Â I do love Rihanna but Ariana is the first female artist who comes to mind for me when I think of streaming success amongst females especially as she holds the honour of the first UK #1 single to include streaming sales. Her career has practically all happened in the streaming era.
August 17, 20204 yr Incredible achievement and very well deserved. She is the leading streaming female of the past few years so this is long overdue. Rihanna having the title previously seems.. odd!?
August 17, 20204 yr Author I can only assume Taylor is 3rd? Not sure about the legitimacy but this list is floating about:Â @1295388940921233409Â No one seems to be debunking it so far so I think you're right!
August 17, 20204 yr So deserved. The Queen of Spotify :wub:Â Taylor has done well to be 3rd seeming that she was anti-streaming and Spotify for so long.
August 17, 20204 yr I was just thinking that! And even that's coming up to 5 years ago now. Don't remind us :cry:
August 17, 20204 yr For Billie to already be #4 on that list as well is so so impressive! I didn’t actually expect Taylor to be third just because of how she was anti Spotify for a time and then Beyoncé for a time was too as well :lol:  Â
November 23, 20204 yr Author @1330939070806159363Â Wow :cheeseblock: the previous female record for this was... Ariana :lol: so smashing her own numbers.
November 24, 20204 yr Author Yeah that does seem like a tall order :lol:Â Also, back to the most streamed woman of all-time accolade, here's an update I just came across, including features:Â @1331211920632729600

This is actually in Ari's interests because the overwhelming majority of her streams are as lead. That's why Ariana was declared the female artist of the decade on Spotify despite Rihanna having more streams if features were to be included.

Ariana killing it. :wub:
December 26, 20204 yr Author @1342877343950389248Â Forgot to update at the time but she's taken the monthly listeners record now and is just going from strength to strength with it, wow
December 26, 20204 yr Didn't Justin Bieber also break this record the other week or am I imagining that? (rather happier to see Ariana taking it than him x)
December 26, 20204 yr Author Didn't Justin Bieber also break this record the other week or am I imagining that? (rather happier to see Ariana taking it than him x) Yeah that's right, Bieber overtook and then Ariana surpassed him really quickly :lol:
