Spotify corrected a data error that previously credited Drake’s "Make Them Cry" as the largest song debut of 2026.
A manual review confirms K-pop group BTS holds the record for their track "SWIM." The song achieved 14.6 million streams on its first day in March.
Spotify admitted the error on X following challenges from BTS fans. The discrepancy resulted from combining streams from two different tracks.
Drake retains the 2026 records for the most-streamed artist in a single day. He also holds the record for the most-streamed album in a single day.
