West seemed pretty happy about that. On Instagram last night (February 11), West took to his Story to share a tweet making note of the achievement, offering no additional context or opinions beyond the unadorned screenshot.
West’s Spotify win, though, didn’t last long: On the charts dated February 12 and 13, Swift had returned to No. 1. So, by the time West shared the news, it was outdated. Worth noting is that this all happened right after West dropped an anticipated new album, while Swift is currently getting by on months-old material.
This follows a report that Swift got West kicked out of Super Bowl LVIII this past weekend. As HipHopDX notes, former NFL player Brandon Marshall claimed that West had purchased tickets that would have placed him right in front of Swift. Marshall then claimed, “Taylor Swift gets pissed off, she boom boom makes a call or two. Everybody’s involved. He gets kicked out the stadium! He was trying to leverage her celebrity. […] That’s what he tried to do: he tried to sit in front of Taylor Swift.”
The publication notes, though, that despite what Marshall said, West was seen in the stadium multiple times, like when he was spotted in a luxury suite with Ty Dolla Sign and Anderson. Paak.

10. Tate McRae — “Greedy”
McRae is just barely hanging around the top 10 this week, but zooming out, “Greedy” is No. 1 on the global Spotify chart right now and has been for 11 weeks.
9. Zach Bryan and Kacey Musgraves — “I Remember Everything”
Bryan and Musgraves’ hit had a significant fall this week from last week, when it was all the way up at No. 2. The reason behind the descent will become clear shortly.
7. Andy Williams — “It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year”
Pretty much the instant Thanksgiving was over, the music listening public clearly turned its attention to holiday music, as Andy Williams’ timeless classic is one of a handful of Christmas tunes in this week’s top 10.
6. Wham! — “Last Christmas – Single Version”
Here’s another! There’s a select roster of holiday staples that surge up the charts annually, and “Last Christmas” has consistently been one of them.
5. Mitski — “My Love Mine All Mine”
Some tracks are still managing to break through the snow, though, like Mitski’s “My Love Mine All Mine,” which is actually the only non-holiday song in the top 10 this week to not move down in the ranks, holding steady at No. 5.
4. Bobby Helms — “Jingle Bell Rock”
“Jingle Bell Rock” is a remarkable 66 years old, and here we are, still enjoying the track like it’s 1957.
3. Mariah Carey — “All I Want For Christmas Is You”
Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas” is usually the holiday headliner, but at least on the USA Spotify chart this week, there’s a new sheriff in town.
2. Jack Harlow — “Lovin On Me”
Harlow managed to capture the No. 1 spot last week, and while he managed to outperform most of the holiday music, there was still one track able to beat him.
1. Brenda Lee — “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree”
With over 12.2 million Spotify streams in the US, Brenda Lee’s 1958 favorite is on top this week. It looks like the song might even challenge “All I Want For Christmas Is You” for the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100, too.

10. Drake — “First Person Shooter” Feat. J. Cole
Drake has certainly put his stamp on the end of the year with both For All The Dogs and the Scary Hours edition, and the former is still doing well with two songs in this week’s top 10.
9. Brenda Lee — “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree
While recently holiday seasons have been all about Mariah Carey, it’s Brenda Lee who’s leading the way this time around: Her 1958 hit “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree” climbed a whopping 26 spots from last week’s chart and finds itself a few spots ahead of this week’s No. 13, “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”
8. Doja Cat — “Agora Hills”
Doja is riding some long-running momentum right now: She dropped the “Agora Hills” video back in September, and two months later, the song still sits at No. 8 on the latest Spotify chart.
7. Noah Kahan — “Stick Season”
Kahan is having himself a great moment: In addition to his hit song “Stick Season,” it was just announced he’s headlining the 2024 Osheaga Festival.
It was a pretty close race for spots No. 5 to 2: Mitski’s song had a hair under 8.1 million streams in the US, while the song in the No. 2 slot had just over 8.4 million plays.
4. Tate McRae — “Greedy”
While McRae’s hit hasn’t completely taken over the US yet, it has been No. 1 on the daily global Spotify chart for 17 days now and is currently on top of the global Weekly Top Songs chart.
3. Taylor Swift — “Is It Over Now? (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault)”
As the year comes to a close and the buzz around Swift’s recent releases starts to die down, the pop icon is starting to lose her grip on the Spotify charts, with just one song in this week’s top 10 (although No. 3 is certainly better than most artists could even dream on).

10. Taylor Swift — “Cruel Summer”
Summer (Taylor‘s Version) may finally be starting to fade away, as “Cruel Summer” looks just about ready to leave the top 10 of the Top Songs chart.
9. Tate McRae — “Greedy”
McRae’s hit peaked at No. 4 previously but it’s still bobbing around near the top of the chart, rising two spots from last week.
8. Drake — “IDGAF” Feat. Yeat
A new crop of Drake songs will presumably enter the chart next week with the release of For All The Dogs Scary Hours Edition, but in the meantime, his and Yeat’s “IDGAF” is still representing in the top 10.
7. Taylor Swift — “Now That We Don’t Talk (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault)”
It feels like Swift will have some sort of chart presence until the end of time, and indeed, this “From The Vault” track is one of the three songs the artist has in this week’s top 10.
Kahan had his commercial breakthrough a year ago with his third album, Stick Season. The title track is crushing it 16 months after its initial release, reaching a new peak in the top 5 this week.
Country music dominated this past summer, and while that trend has mostly dissipated, Zach Bryan is still sticking around with his hit Kacey Musgraves collaboration.
3. Mitski — “My Love Mine All Mine”
TikTok has become a regular hitmaker these days and Mitski is the latest artist to get a boost from the video platform: It’s currently No. 1 on the TikTok Billboard Top 50 chart for a fourth week.
2. Jack Harlow — “Lovin On Me”
Following the song’s release last week, Harlow’s “Lovin On Me” is seeing some early success by claiming the silver medal on the newest Spotify chart (it’s the only song to debut in the top 10 this week). There’s more to come, too, as Harlow called the track the beginning of “a new era.”
1. Taylor Swift — “Is It Over Now? (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault)”
This is the third week at No. 1 for the 1989 (Taylor’s Version) highlight (and it’s the only song with at least 10 million streams in the US this week). Swift previously noted of the track, “I always saw this song as sort of a sister to ‘Out Of The Woods’ and ‘I Wish You Would.’ I kind of saw those songs as similar, so unfortunately, when we were making these decisions on what to put on 1989 and what to leave behind, I had to make some tough choices.”
