Three Canadians have made it onto Spotify’s list of 10 most streamed artists of all time.
Drake is third on the list — after only Taylor Swift and Bad Bunny — while the Weeknd takes the fourth spot.
Justin Bieber sits further down at No. 7.
It’s the first time Spotify has released a global list of most-streamed artists, and comes as the streaming giant marks its 20th anniversary.
Spotify did not provide insight into its data collection methodology.
The company also released a list of most-streamed songs and albums, and the Weeknd scored high on both, with “Blinding Lights” taking the top spot among the songs and “Starboy” second on the album list.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published April 23, 2026.
