Spotify playlist Today’s Top Hits has passed 25 Million followers and 20 billion streams. If Today’s Top Hits was an artist, it would be the third most-streamed artist on Spotify after Drake and Ed Sheeran, Spotify’s top artists of the decade.

Today’s Top Hits features songs from artists around the world, spanning a variety of genres including pop, Latin, hip-hop, and indie.

Launched in 2014, Today’s Top Hits curators analyze music culture and trends, in addition to streaming data to populate the playlist that updates weekly.

Over 70 artists have received more than 100 Million streams from being on the playlist.
