Spotify Ranking: the 10 most listened songs in Mexico

The musical offer has never been as extensive as it is today, so it is easy for more than one person to feel outdated, however, with the emergence of platforms such as Spotify, keeping abreast of the most popular ones of the moment has become easier.

Spotify has provided its users with playlists where they can check the news and topics that are conquering the Mexican public.

From reggaeton, pop, ballads and regional music, these are the most popular hits in Mexico this Thursday, March 17:

1. Chale

“Chale”, played by Eden Muñoz, is at the top of the list, after achieving 729,987 views.

2. We Are No Longer Nor Will Be

3. MAMIII

4. Desperate

If we talk about the spoiled ones of the public, we must mention Rauw Alejandro and Chencho Corleone. Perhaps this is why “Desperados” debuts in the ranking directly in fourth place, reaching a total of 571,121 views.

5. Lo Siento BB:/ (with Bad Bunny & Julieta Venegas)

6. Wrap

Anitta's newest, “Envelop”, goes straight to the sixth position on the favorites list. It has already been reproduced 494,102 times. What will the future hold for him?

“One Night in Medellin” by Cris Mj is sold like hot cakes. She already has 450,809 views, which makes her an important player in the ranking and holder of 8th place.

9. If I Could Lie To You

Reaping success is synonymous with Calibre 50. Therefore, it is not surprising that his new production, called “If You Could Mentir”, debuted in ninth position at that time. Who else could boast of having 424,882 first-entry views?

10. Mon Amour - Remix

In the music industry, Mexico is one of the most difficult countries to conquer, but those who manage to do so are guaranteed the doors to success as these artists have achieved. Remember that this top 10 is updated every 24 hours.

The rise of Spotify

Founded in 2006, the Swedish-born company formally began its activities in Europe on October 7, 2008 and has gradually been present around the world, currently being in 187 countries and offering music by more than seven million artists.

Today, the streaming platform has agreements with the labels Universal Music, Sony Music, EMI Music, Hollywood Records, Interscope Records, Warner Music, among others.

On the subject of podcasting, Spotify announced in November 2020 the purchase and acquisition of the advertising and podcast platform Megaphone for 235 million dollars, which served for the monetization of audios.

According to figures published by Spotify, in 2019 it had 217 million subscribers, which increased to 345 million in 2020 and in 2021, despite the pandemic, they reached 365 million subscribers, of which nearly 50% are paying customers.

As a model, Spotify has proposed paying artists in its catalog a fixed price per song or album sold and gives royalties based on the number of artist plays in proportion to the total number of songs streamed, unlike its competitors, who pay for physical sales or downloads.

In addition, 70% of its total revenue goes to copyright holders, mostly record labels, who then pay artists based on their individual contracts.

It should be noted that currently anyone can enjoy the free Spotify service, as long as you are willing to put up with ads and with restrictions such as not being able to skip some songs.
