The milestone, confirmed today via Chart Data on X and reflected in live Spotify analytics, cements Swift’s place as one of the most influential and enduring artists of the streaming era.
This and many other achievements serve as proof of the artist’s unmatched global reach, loyal fanbase, and cultural impact over nearly two decades in music.
According to live streaming charts:

Chart performance: Swift’s music consistently appears on global playlists and daily streaming charts, ensuring her catalogue grows steadily over time.
This milestone places Swift not only as the most-streamed female artist on Spotify, but also among the elite group of artists globally who have reached 120 billion streams joining ranks with Drake, and other streaming legends.
Tours like the Eras Tour, viral social media moments, and new album releases keep her connected to both longtime fans and new listeners.
With new releases, deluxe editions, and ongoing playlist presence, Swift’s streams are expected to continue climbing well beyond 120 billion. Each milestone reinforces her status as one of the defining artists of the 21st century, with influence measured not only in numbers but in cultural resonance.
Ryan Coogler’s Sinners has officially entered the history books. The supernatural period thriller has earned 16 nominations at the 98th Academy Awards, making it the most-nominated film in Oscars history.
The feat sees Sinners surpass the long-standing record of 14 nominations, previously shared by All About Eve (1950), Titanic (1997), and La La Land (2016). With this milestone, Coogler’s film now stands alone at the top of the Academy’s nomination leaderboard.
Set in the 1930s American South, Sinners blends historical drama with supernatural horror, following twin brothers both portrayed by Michael B. Jordan as they confront racism, faith, and an emerging vampire threat within their community.
The film’s sweeping nomination haul reflects broad Academy recognition across acting, directing, writing, music, and technical craft, signaling rare consensus support from voters.
