Earlier reports on Friday had already confirmed that with the release of her new album, Taylor Swift had secured the title of the most streamed artist in a single day in Spotify’s history. This accomplishment comes after she previously broke her own record as the most streamed artist in a single day with the release of “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” in October of the previous year.
While Taylor Swift basks in her success, BTS’ Jungkook is also enjoying a triumph of his own with his song “Seven” from his album “Golden.” The track has secured a spot in Spotify’s top 10 most successful debut tracks list. Although the list is dominated by Taylor’s new tracks, Jungkook’s “Seven” from his album “Golden” has managed to claim the 8th position. The K-Pop idol collaborated with Latoo for this beat, which garnered an impressive 16 million streams for its debut on the platform.
