The year was undoubtedly a great one for pop music — specifically, women in the genre! On Wednesday, Spotify announced its end-of-year Spotify Wrapped data, including its ranking of most-streamed albums globally, which saw women in the Top Eight slots for 2024.
Topping the list was Taylor Swift with her album The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology. Swift made the Top 10 twice more: 2023’s 1989 (Taylor’s Version) reached Number Six and 2019’s Lover came in at Number Eight.
After Tortured Poets was Billie Eilish‘s Hit Me Hard and Soft at Number Two, Sabrina Carpenter‘s Short n’ Sweet in third, Karol G’s Mañana Será Bonito at Number Four, and Ariana Grande’s Eternal Sunshine at Number Five. SZA’s 2022 album SOS landed at Number Seven.
Swifties have much to celebrate since Swift was also crowned the most-streamed artist globally — for the second consecutive year in a row — with a whopping 26.6 billion streams globally. (She also topped the list for Apple Music.) The Weeknd reached Number Two, Bad Bunny landed in third, Drake reached Number Four, and Billie Eilish snagged the fifth slot in the ranking. (Corridos star Peso Pluma came in at Number Seven and reggaetón singer Feid landed at Number 10.)
When it comes to songs, no track was streamed more than Carpenter’s “Espresso,” which was listened to more than 1.6 billion times globally. Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things” came in at Number Two, Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” came in at Number Three, FloyyMenor and Cris Mj’s “Gata Only” landed at fourth, and Teddy Swims closed out the list with his hit “Lose Control.”
