Over the past couple of years, how things have gone down, it’s easy for people to think the music world has only been dominated by stars like Sabrina Carpenter, Taylor Swift, or Billie Eilish. But Bruno Mars has just proven he’s still a powerhouse by breaking the record for the most monthly listeners on Spotify.
And it’s not just his viral hit with Rosé or Lady Gaga from this year that’s making waves, it’s his timeless Christmas tracks that are lighting up playlists around the world.
Bruno Mars breaks all-time record for monthly listeners on Spotify
Bruno Marsis owning the holiday season and breaking records while he’s at it! The American superstar has smashed Spotify’s record for the most monthly listeners, hitting a whopping 140 million, and it’s all thanks to his Christmas classics likeWhite Christmas,24k Christmas, andThat’s Why I Like Christmas.

But it’s not just the festive vibes keeping him on top. Mars’ timeless hits likeUptown FunkandLocked Out of Heavenstill dominate playlists, and thus can be said acted as a catalyst in proving that his music never goes out of style. His recent collabs withLady GagaonDie With A Smileand Rosé of Blackpink onAPThave also added fuel to the fire, with both tracks crossing the billion-stream mark.
While other big names likeTaylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Justin Bieber are seeing solid growth, as Grande alone gained 1.4 million new listeners recently, Mars continues to reign supreme. Thus it is proven that he is the OG when it comes to winning fans with both old hits and new songs, making him a streaming star, especially during a season full of holiday music and classic favorites.
This proves Bruno Mars is the real king of the industry!
Even if he didn’t release any new music this year (which he did, and those did go mega viral), Bruno Mars would still be doing just fine. In fact, he hadn’t dropped anything under his name in over five years prior to these releases, and it’s been even longer since his last full album. For most pop stars, such a break might be career-ending, but not for this Grammy-winning superstar.
As reported byForbes, in the U.K., Mars hit a major milestone that proves he is the goat. His debut album,Doo-Wops & Hooligans, had spent an incredible 350 weeks on the U.K. albums chart then. It’s a record no other album of his has come close to matching.

While his Grammy-winning follow-up,Unorthodox Jukebox, has tallied a solid 85 weeks on the same chart (including one week at No. 1),Doo-Wops & Hooligansis in a league of its own. Fans continue to press play on the hits that made Mars a superstar, proving that even without new material, his music legacy is as strong as ever.
