2025 most streamed genres (didn't see a thread for it)

As long as it’s doing better than punk ass country music

I hope the rap/country collabs are dead in 2026. I hated all that shît.

 

[Knucklehead]

It's mainly old hip hop music

Depends what you call old.
Its certainly not 90s music.

It would be interesting to break down these categories based on era and age of the listeners

 

[Redwood]

Thought rock was a dying genre unless you're a legacy act

The majority streaming old shyt when it was fire.

back-catalog usually streams higher than current in ALL GENRES but I'm pretty sure that even the current HipHop/R&B is out streams its comp. For example in 2023:

The Latin American music in the USA w/ current and back catalog combined did around 70 Billion streams

The HipHop/R&B current did around 250 Billion streams; The back catalog (18 months and older) did 800 billion + streams

What classifies as old hiphop music? Seems like there would be more old than new.
