The world\’s richest DJ at the moment has earned yet another title. According to Spotify, Calvin Harris is officially the most frequently streamed British solo act of all time. To put this into perspective, 1 billion plays equates to a collective time of roughly 5,000 years. The estimated revenue for this number of plays is worth approximately $7M.
The Co-President of Columbia records UK, Harris\’ Label had this to say about the achievement:
\”We would like to congratulate Calvin Harris on reaching the huge milestone of a billion streams on Spotify, conclusive proof if any were needed that he is one of the most popular artists on Spotify.\”
In acknowledgement of his own achievement, Harris will be hosting a Spotify Playlist Takeover on Tuesday September 9 at 8pm, during which he will be showcasing some of his favorite tracks.
With his newly released single \”Blame\” featuring John Newman, which dropped less than a week ago, we are sure Harris\’ momentum will not be slowing down anytime soon.
