TOP 100 SINGERS BY SPOTIFY LISTENERS

[@o-o8547]

Fun fact: Spotify wasn't available in Korea until much recently unless you had a Samsung phone. It was just recently (in the past year or two) that it was made available, and even then it is still basically non-existent, as people tend to go for the precedent (which was Melon)

@@godzandheros that's a good point. plus, everyone who had a Samsung phone didn't install Spotify. it was available for us only if we had a Samsung but we still had to install it and sign up for it. you couldn't pay for premium with bank cards issued in Korea. and between a music platform that already has a precedent and an app that practically nobody is familiar with, people would rather have the former than have to download the other and figure it out I'd like to add that about 40% of Korea has iPhones or other brands of smartphone *edited for grammar errors

As of Dec 2021, Spotify's market share in Korean streaming sites is 1,46%. The two biggest streaming sites, Melon and Genie, make up 56,52% of the market shares (37,28% and 19,24%). A similar trend can be seen in most Asian countries (and possibly other areas?). So yes, the Spotify charts are VERY Western. If it was the other way around, a lot of these artists would be out.

My oldest daughter, who was 15 at the time was staying the night with my parents and my mom just slumped over mid conversation with my daughter. She struggled with seeing everything happen. Then, my dad became suicidal after my mom passed. So I never got to fully mourn because I was busy looking after them. It was hard losing my mom at 38, so I can't imagine how bad it hurt to lose your dad at 13.

I think it would be interesting to do top most FOLLOWED artists on Spotify. A lot of streams come from currated playlists. If song goes viral, it gives the artist listeners for that song, but their popularity or fans don't increase as much. The most interesting concept would be TOP FOLLOWED artists vs their monthly listeners. Some numbers are funny to see... either they have streams from playlists and not that many fans (ppl who chose to follow them) or they have many followers but ppl don't actually losten to their music

All five of my guesses where there. I guessed: The Weekend Taylor Swift Billie Eilish Post Malone Justin Bieber

[@random-person_on_yt]

so interesting to see 1 year ago 1 direction had around 20million monthly listeners and now has doubled that to around 40million. same with harry styles a year ago he had 33million monthly listeners and now it’s doubled to 65million

[@bananathemango1751]

[@samanthadavelaar7452]

I personally think total monthly streams per artist is more accurate. Since monthly listeners is massively influenced by playlisting. Would like to see a video on that in the future!

[@Nightstick24]

It’s always interesting to see these kinds of ranking lists when they’re a very specific stat like monthly listeners. It really gives you an appreciation for how much you can manipulate information without lying because of how wildly different the lists are depending on the exact stat you’re looking at. All while looking at things most people would consider to be “popularity”. Like daily plays, monthly plays, overall plays, by month, every list varies wildly but any one of them people would typically relate to “popularity”. Also, it blows my mind how big Spotify is in the Hispanic community. So many artists that are in the top 100 that I’ve never heard a single song from, ever.

You know what video would be interesting? Top 100 Spotify artist by listeners retention. Take top 100 followed artists on Spotify. Then from their Total followers numbers redux their monthly followers. That would show which artists has most loyal and disloyal listeners. :D Or compare How many artist songs in average 1 of their fallower listens in a month. Most streamed Artists on Spotify for example month February of 2022 and divide that stream number by their monthly listeners number that month. I wondering who would come on top there.

I remember seeing pictures and videos of people in South Korea with their headphones plugged into a Melon. I never understood it until I learned about the streaming service Melon. Also, I would love to see more videos on Korean songs and artists on this channel. I love your personality and I love watching your videos because you always make me laugh, so I would love it if you could cover a little more of the underrated genre of K-Pop. There are so many different styles of the genre and there's a lot more variety in terms of sounds. My personal favorite group is ATEEZ but there are MANY talented K-Pop groups out there.
