Quevedo and Bad Gyal lead the list of most listened-to songs abroad in the first half of 2026

Quevedo and Bad Gyal top the list of songs by Spanish artists released in 2026 and most streamed outside of Spain in the first half of the year, according to data released this Thursday by Spotify.

The list of the most streamed songs by Spanish artists abroad in 2026 places Quevedo as the year’s biggest star. The Canary Islands artist has one of the strongest presences on the ranking, with his first three songs among the fifteen most streamed outside of Spain: “Al golpito,” a collaboration with the group Nueva Línea, followed by “Ni borracho” and “Scandic.”

Alongside him, Bad Gyal reaffirms her position as one of the Spanish artists with the greatest global reach. The Catalan artist has three tracks on the list: “Choque,” with Chencho Corleone; “Te Daré”; and “Más Cara,” reflecting the international reach of her music and her close connection to the Latin market.

The influence of Spanish urban music continues to be a major highlight of the ranking. Rels B, who was the most listened-to Spanish artist outside of Spain in 2025, appears with two songs among the year’s most exported: “El cielo,” featuring Kali Uchis, and “Lleva al sol.” Rosalía also has two entries with “Berghain – Remix,” featuring Conrad Taylor, Björk, and Yves Tumor, and “Focu Ranni.”

The list also demonstrates the diversity of Spanish talent crossing borders. It includes established artists like Alejandro Sanz, with “Cuéntame” featuring Yami Safdie, and Lola Indigo with “Fifty Fifty” by Kenia OS, as well as rising stars like Rvfv, Yapi, and Adrian Fyrla, whose collaborations with international artists continue to expand the reach of music made in Spain.
