Spotify’s “Billions Club” 

Spotify was launched 14 years ago and came into the US in 2011. Since then, the Stockholm-based company has become the world’s most popular audio-streaming service, with 456 million users across 183 markets.

In July 2021, Spotify created the Billions Club, a playlist comprising every song that has been streamed more than a billion times. Of the more than 300 songs on the list, nine of the top 10 are by men. The exception is Ariana Grande’s at #5. (That hierarchy again!) Most of the artists/groups are relatively new to fame. (I recognized only five of the artists/groups and only two of the songs.)
