2022 Global Year-End List:

Bad Bunny took the number one spot for most-streamed artist globally, generating more than 18.5 billion streams this year. This is his third time topping the list in a row. The second most-streamed artist — and most-streamed female artist of the year — is Taylor Swift (#2), followed by Drake (#3), The Weeknd (#4) and BTS (#5).

Harry Styles’ international hit ‘As It Was’ is the top streaming song of the year globally, with more than 1.6 billion streams this year. In the second and third spots respectively, are ‘Heat Waves’ by Glass Animals (#2) and for the second year running, ‘STAY (with Justin Bieber)’ by The Kid LAROI (#3). The fourth and fifth spots belong to Bad Bunny’s ‘Me Porto Bonito’ (#4) and ‘Tití Me Preguntó’ (#5).

Without any surprise, Bad Bunny also tops the most-streamed album list with Un Verano Sin Ti (#1), followed by Harry Styles’ third studio album, Harry’s House (#2). Olivia Rodrigo’s SOUR (#3), Ed Sheeran’s = (#4), and Doja Cat’s Planet Her (#5) each return in the third, fourth and fifth spots respectively as last year.

When it came to podcasts, The Joe Rogan Experience (#1) takes the number one slot. Coming in second and third are Call Her Daddy (#2) and Anything Goes with Emma Chamberlain (#3), followed by thriller/crime series like Caso 63 (All Languages, #4) and Crime Junkie (#5).
