Spotify has released its official list of the most streamed songs of summer 2018 and there were plenty of familiar and expected names. These were the songs that dominated not just the Spotify charts but also made plenty of playlists all summer long. Artists like Drake, Maroon 5, and Post Malone make appearances on the list with Drake taking home the number one spot. Cardi B pulled in not one, but two spots thanks to her collaboration with Maroon 5.
Drake’s “In My Feelings” was the clear winner and front runner of the Summer, thanks in no small part to the viral social media challenge it inspired. Spotify reported that the song was streamed over 393 million times between June 1st and August 20th. Considering the fact that the song was released on July 10th, that is a massively impressive feat. The challenge that seemed to take over every single social media platform certainly cranked up the streams of the song, with almost every celebrity under the sun posting videos of themselves dancing along to the song.
Coming in at a distant second place was Maroon 5’s “Girls Like You (feat. Cardi B)” which had nearly 100 million less streams at 293 million during the same period. Also making appearances on the list include Australian pop band 5 Seconds of Summer, Tyga and Offset, Demi Lovato, and the late rapper Xxxtentacion.
Check out the full list of most streamed songs below.
