200 Songs Recorded By Black Musicians With The Most Spotify Streams

Let me tell y’all something. If there’s one thing Black folks gon’ do, it’s make music that moves the world. Black musicians have dropped hits that defined decades, from the church pews and dusty basements of the Midwest to the block parties of Queens and the sunshine grooves of Cali. Whether you’re a Gen Xer who grew up recording songs off the radio onto cassette tapes or a Millennial who stayed glued to 106 & Park after school, this list gon’ take you there.

Streaming has changed the game, no doubt. Before Spotify and Apple Music, success was about record sales, radio spins, and maybe a little TRL love. Now? It’s about who’s got folks pressing play over and over again. And baby, Black artists are doing numbers! These streaming stats prove what many of us already knew—our people have been running the charts.

This ain’t just a chart; it’s a celebration. R&B, hip-hop, soul, pop, reggae, gospel, and whatever else we touch—this list is full of our cultural fingerprints. From the legends to the new wave, these are the 200 songs by Black musicians that got the most streams on Spotify as of April 2, 2025. It includes the artists, their hit songs, how many streams each song has, and what albums they call home.

Whether you’re a crate-digging music nerd, a casual playlist head, or someone just looking to vibe with greatness, this countdown from 200 to 1 is for you. Check the stats, relive the moments, and celebrate the artists who keep our spirits lifted, our hips moving, and our stories alive.
