According to information from Purecharts, Bruno Mars has just broken impressive records on Spotify, even surpassing Taylor Swift.
Surpasser Taylor Swift or even The Weeknd on streaming platforms, it’s a real feat. Few artists achieve this. However, Bruno Mars seems to have met this challenge brilliantly.
A milestone event for the singer
Before we dive into the reasons for Bruno Mars’ current success, let’s talk about Taylor Swift. She hasn’t released an album since 2016, and her fans are eagerly awaiting a new project. However, this did not impact his popularity.
The American superstar continues his Eras Tour across the globe. Recently, she gave a concert in Indianapolis. Unfortunately, she encountered a clothing mishap during her performance.
A member of his technical team intervened on stage to assist him. In the middle of the song, he had to remove a battery from his costume. It had apparently died down during his performance of “Lavender Haze”. Despite this interruption, she managed to keep her calm.
She continued to sing without letting herself be destabilized. Holding her headset, she performed. Her fans enthusiastically supported her throughout this unexpected situation.
Once the problem was resolved, Taylor Swift regained her energy. She danced and sang as usual. However, this was not enough to maintain its level of listening. Indeed, another artist has just beaten her to it.
Bruno Mars, the new reference on Spotify

He reached an impressive total of 770 million plays on Spotify. But that’s not all, his track “APT”, in collaboration with K-pop star Rosé, was also a huge success.
This title, number 1 since its release, has accumulated millions of views. According to Purechartsthis success allowed Bruno Mars to overtake Taylor Swift in the rankings.
Indeed, the title of Bruno Mars records approximately 10 million streams per day. To date, it totals more than 160 million reads.
