And The Biggest Pop Star In The World Is… Latino!
Bloomberg ranked the top musicians around the world and appearing in the top spot of several of these lists is… Bad Bunny.
“Bad Bunny, the king of trap from Puerto Rico, is the biggest pop star in the world” reads the title of the new chart, giving El Conejo Malo bragging rights even during the quarantine.
Pop Star Power Rankings is a ranking that compiles behavior in music sales, streams, interactions, and replays of a list of artists around the world. This first edition, which is made up of data pulled in March, includes Bad Bunny in the top spot, followed by J Balvin, and Aventura.
The Pop Star Power Ranking takes into account ticket sales, concert revenue, album sales, Spotify streams, interactions on Instagram and YouTube views.
With his most recent album release, “YHLQMDLG,” Bad Bunny has become the most popular artist worldwide on Spotify, and the third most popular music artist on Instagram, according to CrowdTangle. Bad Bunny, also known as Benito, also reached #4 on the U.S. charts with his new album, breaking borders and international music markets.
On the chart, Bad Bunny is followed by Justin Bieber, Elton John, the Weeknd and Lil Uzi Vert.
