Spotify has released their first ever list for their Top Artists Under 25 with the highest spot going to Avicii. That’s not a huge surprise given his success on their platform last year with “Wake Me Up.” Avicii has broken multiple Spotify records including being the first artist under 25 to reach 1 billion streams as well as having the most streamed single ever. Even though Avicii had the most success out of any artist, the dance community was lacking in representation. Zedd took the 15th spot and Disclosure took the 20th with the rest of the spots going to mainstream artists that you’d find also on MTV. No disrespect, but people are still listening to Demi Lovato? I’d much rather see someone like Feed Me take the her place, but what can you do. We’re happy with what we have, especially since Avicii blew the list away; I know he’s happy too, because he received this win just before his 25th birthday which is two months away. Check out the full list below to who else had a big impact on Spotify recently.
