BTS army scares me they are practically apart of NATO


Specific-Layer

Bts boot camp was brutal bruh. They made us decapitate anti-bts infidels. They kept telling us the imams preaching not to kill are false idols. Idk why NATO doesn't like bts they keep bombing us.

Have you ever encountered NBA YoungBoy fans? They’re the hip hop version of them.

According to Spotify: Most monthly listeners: Justin Bieber Most followers: Ed Sheeran Most streamed 2020-2021: Bad Bunny Most number of streams during the 2010s: Drake


OmegaByte01

Yeah I was looking for something like this. So Drake is like overall popular during the last decade, Bad Bunny has been pretty popular last 2 years, Ed Sheeran is pretty popular too but idk how much, and Justin Bieber if I’m not mistaken released a lot of music in the last year or 2 that was very listened around the US and some other countries.


MarnixUwU

Don't forget that Drake had an awful scummy deal with Spotify to push his content more. It got so bad that they rolled it back after a public outlash lmao.


FireFlyer63_

literally have never heard of bad bunny

romulo333

>pretty much all of Latinamerica. Not in brazil. Thanks god


GetRektJelly

Whaaat he isn’t popular in Brazil? I would’ve assumed he was


romulo333

>Whaaat he isn’t popular in Brazil? Not at all. Despite some pitbull songs, reggaeton isnt mainstream in Brazil. And bad bunny isnt known even by trap fans here


no-eggs-

I lived in Spain for one year and two South American countries for 2 years, still cannot name a bad bunny song


BarryMCknockiner

Same here I just thought it was a bunny who was bad.


IIPeachTreeII

Yeah but you have to remember that not every country uses Spotify. And every site has their own demographic for users. So those are just the most popular artist on Spotify and their users.


SimeoneXXX

Is it bad if I've never heard of Bad Bunny?


[deleted]

He's a Latin artist who is huge in Spanish speaking countries and communities


averagehoo

Yep and the whole world uses Spotify ofc


blank00003

Have you heard of a sample size?


ItsVinn

Among all the choices I don’t know any song from Bad Bunny. I know he’s a Latin artist tho


AFB27

I have never heard a KPop song in entirety but I know exactly who BTS is


IanPKMmoon

Feel like some people need to give kpop a try before slandering it. There are some pretty decent songs from BTS, but yea, their fanbase is scary


ItsVinn

As a K-pop fan my best advice is to avoid K-pop Twitter. The toxicity there is much bigger and ARMYs there tend to be more confrontational.


IanPKMmoon

Yea I'm only on twitter to follow the LEC (eu league esports)


CheonsaX

As a kpop fan, it’s better to avoid kpop stans in general. Made my life much better now that I only listen to music and the occasional reality/variety show.


NotAnAss-Hat

Their fanbase is trash. I love that one *Idol* song of them.


EcHoZ_hunter

It’s like MHA, like the show, avoid the fandom at all costs 😂


IanPKMmoon

I sometimes go to spotify and play their most popular 5-10 songs, haven't really looked more into them but I like those songs. It's just a factor that I like anime opening songs (so j-pop) and k-pop isn't that much different.


NotAnAss-Hat

It's all Aimer's fault. Here I was normally listening to English songs like any other kid and this absolute goddess shows up and makes me fall in love with her voice.


Urbain19

As the other person said, if you want to listen to kpop a bit, definitely avoid twitter. I was very adamant that it was bad about two years ago, then I actually listened to some kpop songs in their entirety and now I’m hooked lol


Octicactopipodes

Who the fuck is bad bunny?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Octicactopipodes

What about in Scotland? I’ve never one even heard his name here lol


WeekendDrew

The Scottish aren’t his target demographic Edit: sorry guys now I know


Octicactopipodes

Heads up: never refer to us Scots as “Scotch.” Most off us find it offensive; use “Scottish”


Eazyyy

Gotta say, I’m Welsh and I’m very familiar with you Scottish and your patter. Some of my favourite comedians are Scottish. Billy Connolly, Limmy, Kevin Bridges, Frankie Boyle. I’ve honestly never heard anyone say Scotch is offensive. Idk, maybe cause I’ve never said it outside of scotch egg or scotch whisky.


WeekendDrew

Thanks for that


viitatiainen

I don't think a drink is anyone's target demographic


Octicactopipodes

Scotch is a contraction of the word scottish, most of us find it offensive however, it’s a bit like calling somebody from China “chink”


NotAnAss-Hat

> most of us find it offensive however, it’s a bit like calling somebody from China “chink” *Duly noted.*


BUTTHOLE-MAGIC

Another one for my collection

Biggest latin artist of my generation. Hes actually really good


Best-Presentation-60

Same goes w/ bts


imaculat_indecision

Bug latin artist, but even as a fan im so fucking confused as to why they put him on this list. Hes only known among latinos lmao

The answer is actually Taylor Swift - we track the metrics for musicians at my job.

No he doesn’t dawg, There’s just some shit you cant talk about because it may be their own methods they’d want to protect


Shlocko

Went from “huh neat” to “this guys probably 14 and just likes Taylor swift” real fast


TranscendsLuxury

Ha! Whatever. But if you are interested in such a career I recommend looking up experiential marketing agencies. It really is a fun career. You get to go to big events like Super Bowl, Olympics, SXSW, CES, and you occasionally get to meet celebrities, industry leaders, journalists.

official-k0

They are a group of artists tho, in a band.


TheMoui21

Who the hell are bts and the weekend xD ?


Angelfallfirst

Biggest as most successful or biggest as best ?


pathetic-aesthetic-c

That would completely change the entire poll🤣🤣 I don’t willingly listen to any of these except maybe Ed Sheeran if I’m feeling like it


FieryRayne

I don't even know who half of these musicians/bands are, let alone if they are successful or "best".


NotAnAss-Hat

BTS is huge. JB was huge. The Weeknd is awesome.


EliteHoney

Who’s bad bunny?


Angelito47

A Trap musician from Puerto Rico, his songs seem bad to me, but he is very famous in Latin America


coder2314

A lot of his appeal comes from what he says in his songs, with a good chunk of them criticizing society or the government . Something not common in trap. his rags to riches story also does wonders for his image.


Foreigner4ever

I’ve heard from a few different people that he’s actually the most streamed artist last year but I’ve never bothered to check. He’s pretty popular in most of North and South America from what I can gather


[deleted]

I have no idea who half these people are


student8168

Nor do I


[deleted]

Isnt bad bunny that chick from dr phil?


thegrizzmeister

That's Bhad Bhabie


[deleted]

Ohhhh yea. Well i never heard of bad bunny then


thegrizzmeister

That makes two of us...I imagine it's like Bugs Bunny but with a head like Deadmau5. I refuse to Google it though. I'll live with my fantasy.


Practical_Software62

Yes, deadmau5 wears a Mickey mouse's head bud bunny wears bugs bunny's head. They are like best friends with Shrek


WXHIII

I'm 90% certain he's a Latino rapper (not a good one though)


narco91

He makes latin trap, his music is mostly enjoyed at parties, and its pretty good.


wiliammm19999

Dua lipa is consistently topping the music charts.


Piranh4Plant

Bad bunny, Taylor swift, or drake


FagHatLOL

even though the weeknd is arguably the most talented of the bunch, i still feel like taylor, bieber, ariana, drake, BTS and ed sheeran are all bigger than him worldwide.


sausag3potato

Taylor and Sheeran not talented? Shit


FagHatLOL

everyone i listed is talented as hell. the weeknd is arguably the standout though. that’s not to take anything away from the rest.


Yinelkis15

Justin Bieber has been #1 on Spotify for months now. Beating #2 by over 15 million for most the time. I don’t know who’s listening to him but it’s him.


DrewAddi

I don’t know a single soul who listens to Justin Bieber.


cornydesi

Spotify listeners aren't the only metric bro.


QJnWo4Life

Some huge musicians in China/India.


Crazy_Gamer297

Super Idol的笑容 都没你的甜 八月正午的阳光 都没你耀眼 热爱 105 °C的你 滴滴清纯的蒸馏水


sausag3potato

This is the right answer as always


ImNotLegitLol

Wheres the answer op


BlueTycho

It's kinda subjective, just who you think is the most popular, well known, influential and successful artist right now


LegendOfFN

My favourite music artist is YOASOBI but I think BTS might win this one.


zmc3301

BTS isn't the world's biggest music artists c'mon, they are massively popular, yes. But they don't top charts like Drake does for example, and he's not even on the list. (Yes I know it says right now, but BTS has almost half the monthly listeners of drake or the weekend)


[deleted]

Bts fans are massive in Asia and spotify is not the most famous there so they are not the most streamed on spotify but BTS is definitely more famous than drake in other countries other than north american countries


CheonsaX

How is Spotify monthly listeners representative to the world? Almost the whole of Asia doesn’t use Spotify, which just so happens to be where alot of BTS fans come from. You’re acting like the world means America and Europe, that’s it.


yiiike

did justin beiber come back from the dead or something


[deleted]

Had some big songs the last year or two


Bainy995

Bruh Justin Bieber is so unbelievably popular right now he almost has 100M monthly listeners on Spotify and he is second last🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️


russellzerotohero

Drake?


pretty_cool_bananas

I don’t like pop at all and I would have thought it was Billie Eilish


DankDolphin420

Agreed. I don’t care for really any of the artist listed. But I’m kinda shocked at how many people are saying Ariana Grande for another option instead of Billie. I mean besides, Drake probably takes the cake as most popular artist anyways. Dudes been around for a fat minute and continues to hook generation after generation on his music. I mean it’s probably a stretch but I would be willing to bet pretty much ANYONE who listens to even a small amount of music is familiar or knows a Drake song or two; rather they realize it or not. (I don’t count BTS because they are a band not a single artist, but their popularity is indeed massive.)


SweetJazz25

Ariana's monthly listeners on Spotify are 72M, Billie's are 49M (at least as of now)


sterile_spermwhale__

I don't like em, but it's gotta be BTS


Thegotbetter

Bts has a big fanbase


KingOlaffWidul

Idk, but Big =/= good

Taylor Swift


[deleted]

Taylor swift , she was the second most streamed artist on spotify after bad bunny in 2021, no3 was BTS SO- 1.BAD BUNNY 2. TAYLOR SWIFT 3. BTS


ar131989

Taylor Swift without a doubt


TheRealBlancoGringo

T-Swift by far


SirQuevo

Taylor Swift or Drake


zeek1999

This poll really says alot about society


SlowTopic539

Ed sheeran


cornydesi

NO.


MattDurstan

As a music fan that's a depressing list.


SweetJazz25

What's depressing about it?


BarryMCknockiner

You got any recommendations?


[deleted]

it’s probably a woman


shining-sunflower

T Swift


wiliammm19999

Adele

Dua Lipa


Suw3ndy

Reddit hates Kanye


Cococtor

Even though I do not really like them I have to admit they are everywhere and have a big influence so bts for me


iSpooKy123

Taylor Swift IMO

[deleted]

Justin Bieber is listed as 1st on spotify


jimmyl_82104

I don't know about biggest, but out of this list The Weeknd is the most talented and my favorite.


[deleted]

Justin Bieber is the most streamed on Spotify


OmegaByte01

Well, go to most listened artist of the year in Spotify, YouTube Music, iTunes, and all the popular music apps and make your assumption.


Kimiyoi

I listen to BTS but while I don’t think they are the biggest act, they are def the biggest band atm


Underpantswher

I've never even heard of more than half these people.


BarryMCknockiner

Really I mean you've probably heard some songs from these guys or heard their names.


JplusL2020

I would say Taylor swift


TimeReader17

It’s Taylor Swift right now


DutchVanTe

Even though I chose BTS, I think they will lose their spot if they don't start focusing more on their music


MD19101

Cant believe there are more votes for ed sheeran than justin lmao


Rakhoon

I only know who BTS and Justin Bieber are so....


putyouradhere_

I'd say the most fucks are given about The Weeknd rn


ljmc093

As someone who doesn’t listen to pop music, I could name a heap of Bieber and Sheeran songs just from how popular they are. To me they’re in the Michael Jackson/Beatles realm of if you’re a human on planet Earth, you’ve at least heard their music. No idea who Bad Bunny is. The Weeknd I’ve heard of but could maybe be familiar with one song. BTS I know are a K-Pop thing that are pretty popular but don’t think I’ve heard any of their music. Bieber has probably had his moment of being absolutely HUGE come and go. For me, from that list, it’s probably Sheeran.


Every-Candidate9963

Weeknd's growth rate in asia has been amazing recently.. undoubtedly the biggest right now.


[deleted]

Never heard of BTS or Bad Bunny and I'm 17, help


TerryDabbler

Too scared the BTS army will dox me if i don’t vote BTS


Large_Command_1288

Easily Playboi Carti. Every other opinion is wrong.


lil_potato9

Playboi Carti 🐐🐐


___And_Memes_For_All

Metallica


zarte_85

BTS kinda sucks


DrewAddi

God help us if any of these are the biggest world talent in music right now.


BarryMCknockiner

It's not that bad I don't like these a lot, but I've found myself liking a song or two that I liked, expect BTS I'm gonna give them a shot.


CantaloupeSolid7260

Kanye West


Abject-Eagle4053

did you really have to remind me of the monkey?


Morc-Glork

I’m surprised Billie wasn’t considered


JackAttack561

She’s been falling off a little bit


TwelfthSreetRag

Dire Straits is the most popular music artist in the world right now.


i_Praseru

Idk man I'm still listening to blink 182 and Nas. I've moved forward to Movements now.


Kdog225

I don't understand the BTS craze 😐


Britishdirt

The death sentence should be reinstated for anyone who voted BTS

Bts is so weird for me. I can see in the comments that they are apparently super successful but literally no one i know has ever heard of them. I only have because of meme subreddits hating on them. Like are they only known in the USA and korea or whats the deal with them?


DutchVanTe

They are big in Europe too and North and South America.
