With music audiences being more fragmented than ever, some of you may be wondering if it’s possible for there to be any new music superstars anymore.
I was curious about this as well, so I decided to visit chartmasters.org to find the most-subscribed musicians on Spotify and then only include musicians who first gained mainstream success no earlier than 2020. Here are the results, as of August 11, 2024:
1. Olivia Rodrigo — 38.3 million followers (29th overall)
2. Junior H — 17.8 million (109th overall)
3. Bizarrap — 15.9 million (127th overall)
4. Peso Pluma — 15.2 million (135th overall)
5. Grupo Firme — 13.0 million (163rd overall)
6. Mahalini — 12.9 million (165th overall)
7. Feid — 12.7 million (167th overall)
8. Carín León — 12.2 million (176th overall)
