Top 20 most streamed artists on Apple Music revealed


It should come as no surprise that Taylor Swift, Bad Bunny, Ariana Grande, and Kendrick Lamar are among the top 20 most streamed artists of all time on Apple Music. Check out the full list.

Apple Music launched on June 30, 2015, and it celebrated 10 years of streaming with a top 500 songs list. A year on, the streamer has shared a new metric.

The new chart is the top 20 artists of all time on Apple Music, shared by Chart Data on social media. It’s an official endorsement, as Apple Music’s account reposted it and replied with a heart and trophy emoji.

It isn’t clear what prompted the post, but we are in proximity to Apple Music’s birthday, so it may simply be that. If you don’t live under the proverbial rock, none of these artists should come at any surprise.

  1. Drake
  2. Taylor Swift
  3. Future
  4. Youngboy Never Broke Again
  5. Bad Bunny
  6. Lil Baby
  7. The Weeknd
  8. Morgan Wallen
  9. Kanye West
  10. Post Malone
  11. Travis Scott
  12. Ariana Grande
  13. Chris Brown
  14. Kendrick Lamar
  15. Lil Durk
  16. Gunna
  17. Rod Wave
  18. Ed Sheeran
  19. Justin Bieber
  20. Eminem

Apple isn’t promoting the list on Apple Music, at least not yet anyway. If you’re interested in the top 500 song playlist, it’s still available.

Out of the twenty artists present, I have six in my library. Unsurprisingly, the vast majority of music represented here is in the rap or pop genres.

If you’d like to see something a little more personalized, there’s your Apple Music Replay. Unlike Spotify Wrapped, it is updated monthly, so your 2026 Replay is already available.
