Justin Bieber Is The First Artist To Have 15 Songs Surpass 1 Billion Streams On Spotify

Justin Bieber has etched his name in Spotify’s history books after his collaboration “10,000 Hours” with Dan + Shay, surging past an impressive 1 billion streams. This remarkable achievement marks Bieber’s 15th song to reach the coveted billion-stream milestone, making him the inaugural artist to accomplish such a feat on Spotify.

Leading the pack as Bieber’s most-streamed song on the platform is the chart-topping “Stay,” a collaboration with Kid Leroy, which has amassed an astounding 2.8 billion streams. The list of Bieber’s top 15 songs on Spotify includes hits like “Love Yourself,” with 2.2 billion streams, “Sorry” with 1.9 billion, and “Peaches” featuring Daniel Caesar & Giveon, which has garnered 1.5 billion,  “I Don’t Care” with Ed Sheeran, his feature on the “Despacito Remix,” and “I’m the One” featuring Quavo, Chance the Rapper, and Lil Wayne have all surpassed one billion streams.

Bieber was discovered by music mogul Scooter Braun, on YouTube in 2007 while searching for videos of another artist. Braun tracked down Bieber’s performance venue, contacted his christian mother, Pattie Mallette, and convinced her to let Bieber work with him, despite initial reservations about Braun’s Jewish background. Bieber, at the age of 13, traveled to Atlanta with Braun to record demo tapes and, subsequently, began singing for Usher. Eventually, Bieber signed with Raymond Braun Media Group (RBMG), a joint venture between Braun and Usher. Usher played a crucial role in securing a label home for Bieber with LA Reid who signed him to Island Records in October 2008.

Bieber’s debut single, “One Time,” which interpolates Bob Marley‘s “One Love” was released in July 2009 has surpassed 250 million streams on Spotify. The song charted at No.12 on the Canadian Hot 100 and peaked No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 100. His extended play, “My World,” followed in November 2009, making Bieber the first solo artist to have four singles chart in the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 before the release of a debut album.

For over a decade, Justin Bieber has been acknowledged for reshaping the landscape of pop stardom. Described as the “Prince of Pop” by Billboard, Bieber’s impact has endured, earning him the MTV Award for Best New Artist in 2010 and the MTV Award for Artist of the Year in 2021, showcasing his lasting influence. In 2021 Rolling Stone India hails him as the “biggest popstar of our age,” emphasizing his status as one of the most captivating and successful artists of all time.
