According to Guinness World Records, The Weeknd is statistically the most well-known musician in the entire world, according to the US-based media outlet Billboard.
The organisation awarded the title to the pop star on Monday after examining the data from well-known streaming services used by some of the greatest names in the music business, including the platform’s monthly listenership. The Weeknd currently owns the coveted title of having amassed 100 million monthly listeners on Spotify as of the end of February. He’s far and away at the top of the class. And yet, even in the few weeks since he crossed the nine-figure threshold, the “Starboy” singer has gained even more streaming followers — up to 111.4 million, according to the Guinness report.
Miley Cyrus currently tallies 82.4 million monthly listeners in the wake of releasing her hotly anticipated eighth studio album Endless Summer Vacation. Other artists who trail The Weeknd include Shakira (81.6 million), Ariana Grande (80.6 million), Taylor Swift (80. 2 million), Rihanna (78.5 million) and Ed Sheeran (77.5 million).
A little over a week ago, The Weeknd swept the 2023 Juno Awards in his native Canada, taking home four awards, including both artist of the year and songwriter of the year for a record fourth time; single of the year for a third time (for 2022’s “Sacrifice”)l and pop album of the year (for Dawn FM
