"Um ok this is unreal??" Swift tweeted following the announcement of Spotify's 2023 Wrapped results. "I just wanted to say to anyone who listened to my music this year, anywhere in the world, thank you. Getting named Spotify’s Global Top Artist in 2023 is truly the best birthday/holiday gift you could’ve given me. We’ve seriously had THE MOST fun this year out there on tour and now this. Are you serious."
As a thank you to fans, she's released the long-requested "You're Losing Me (From the Vault)" on streaming.
Last year, Bad Bunny held the top spot for his third consecutive year. While Bad Bunny lost his top spot, his album Un Verano Sin Ti was still the most streamed album on Spotify this year. Swift's albums Midnights and Lover were at No. 2 and No. 7, respectively. Curiously, the oldest record to make the top ten is The Weeknd's Starboy, which was released in 2016. The only 2023 album in the top ten is Karol G's Mañana Será Bonito.
The arrival of the breakdown of most streamed artists globally comes as Spotify has unleashed its long-awaited Spotify Wrapped, which allows subscribers to see what they listened to most in 2023.
