At just 23 years old, Billie Eilish has officially surpassed 50 billion total streams on Spotify, becoming the youngest artiste ever to reach the prestigious milestone. She also holds the distinction of achieving this feat with a notably compact catalog—fewer than 80 tracks making her the artiste with the smallest discography in Spotify’s 50-billion club.
According to data shared on social media platforms, she crossed the 50-billion mark on July 31st, 2025, accumulating approximately 50,014,101,692 streams across all credited tracks.
Billie Eilish joins an elite group of just 13 artistes worldwide to ever surpass 50 billion streams on Spotify, highlighting her global resonance early in her career. Despite having released just three full-length studio albums, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? (2019), Happier Than Ever (2021), and Hit Me Hard and Soft (2024)—and several EPs and singles, her music has amassed massive longevity and replay value in digital formats. Eight of her songs have crossed the 1-billion-stream threshold, including pop-cultural staples like Bad Guy, Lovely, When the Party’s Over, Everything I Wanted, and Ocean Eyes.
Her 2024 album Hit Me Hard and Soft delivered a record-breaking debut, logging 72.7 million Spotify streams on release day and surpassing 500 million global streams in its first week. It became her fastest album to reach 2 billion streams, earning the title of Spotify’s second most-played album of the year only narrowly trailing Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department.
In June 2024, she became the third and youngest artiste to surpass 100 million monthly listeners on Spotify, joining Taylor Swift and The Weeknd in that elite category.
