Tough Competition from Other Artists

Of course, Bruno Mars is up against some superstars in the charts, and many have reached the top spot of Spotify Wrapped in the past.

Taylor Swift is arguably his strongest rival to become the Top Streamed Artist of 2025, with betting odds placing her as the firm frontrunner for the title.

In addition to her extensive back catalog, it is widely believed that Swift will release her final two re-recorded albums at some point this year.

Many fans are excitedly awaiting the release of Reputation (Taylor’s Version) and Taylor Swift (Taylor’s Version), which will likely cause fans to rush and stream the albums as soon as they drop.

Also, rumor has it that Taylor Swift penned many fresh tracks during her sellout Eras Tour, suggesting she may release a new album soon. If so, she might scoop the title for a third consecutive year.

The Weeknd could rival Bruno Mars and Taylor Swift for the title, as he had more than one billion streams on Spotify. Therefore, he is one of the most popular artists on the platform.

His brand-new album Hurry Up Tomorrow has already enjoyed much success, as it secured 58.37 million streams within its first 24 hours and 302.2 million streams in its first week on Spotify.

Other acts who have a good chance of being named Spotify’s Top Streamed Artist include Bad Bunny, Drake, Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, Sabrina Carpenter, Ed Sheeran, and Travis Scott.

Unfortunately, you’ll need to wait until the end of the year to see who comes out on top.
