Taylor Swift recently became the female artist with the most solo songs as reported by The Swift Society on X (formerly Twitter). She also garnered over 1 billion Spotify Streams, surpassing the records of Ariana Grande and Adele. This is a remarkable feat considering the kind of musical powerhouse Grande and Adele are in the industry. While Swift shone as a female artist, Drake remained the most-streamed artist of all time on Spotify. However, in the category of the artist with the most monthly listeners on Spotify, Swift became the undisputed champion.
A few days ago Swift also broke a record-extending 85th week. She ranked at the top of the Billboard artist 100 and 200 charts. Her recorded version of ‘1989’ became instrumental in this feat. The release debuted with 1.653 million equivalent album units, which is the largest one-week total since Adele’s ’25’. However, these are not Swift’s only achievements this year.
As Swift continues to set new records, now is the perfect moment to reflect on some of the significant milestones she has reached this year.
