Rihanna’s ‘Where Have You Been’ & ‘Pon De Replay’ Hit 1 BILLION Spotify Streams

The numbers don’t lie. Even without a new album in nearly a decade, Rihanna remains a streaming powerhouse, with her catalog continuing to rake in serious plays.

Full story below…

The Bajan billionaire’s ‘Where Have You Been’ and ‘Pon De Replay’ have both crossed the coveted 1 billion streams mark on Spotify, further cementing the Queen of Pop’s enduring dominance.

The milestone is particularly impressive for ‘Pon De Replay,’ RiRi’s 2005 debut single that introduced the world to the then-17-year-old Bajan belle.

Fast-forward two decades, and the track is still connecting with the masses, hitting the billion-stream milestone in recent weeks. Meanwhile, ‘Where Have You Been,’ the 2012 high-octane from her ‘Talk That Talk’ LP, reached the same achievement in the same frame.

For context, the 37-year-old mogul now has 18 songs with over 1 billion Spotify streams. The list includes fan-favorites like ‘Umbrella,’ ‘We Found Love,’ and ‘Diamonds.’ What makes this even more remarkable? It’s been a full decade since she dropped her last album, ‘ANTI,’ in 2016.

Interestingly, three further tracks are within reach distance of 1 billion spins on the streamer:‘Disturbia,’ ‘B*tch Better Have My Money,’ and ‘Take A Bow.’

While the wait continues for R9, it’s crystal clear: that Rihanna reign just won’t let up!
