Late last month, Wallen suddenly reappeared on Spotify’s Country Coffeehouse, which draws more than 600,000 followers. But the streaming giant is slowly letting Wallen back in, potentially in a bid to keep Wallen fans on its platform. In early February, Spotify removed Wallen from its curated playlists after the singer was filmed uttering the n-word after a night of partying. Those numbers appear to be forcing Spotify’s hand.
“7 Summers” has also spent more than 200 days on Spotify’s US singles chart (the song was released in August of last year ahead of the full album release).
That includes “7 Summers,” which crossed the 100 million-mark this week (at the time of this article’s publication, the song has more than 105 million total streams). That’s easily Wallen’s most-streamed track, though multiple hits from his recently-released Dangerous: The Double Album are also rising.
According to details shared with Digital Music News this evening, Wallen’s “Whiskey Glasses” - released in July of 2018 - has just crossed 300 million total streams on Spotify, a massive number propelled by a February surge. But it now looks like Wallen fans are merely shifting to platforms like Spotify and putting the artist on repeat. Morgan Wallen has been missing from nearly every radio station in America for more than a month. Despite being partially banned by Spotify, Morgan Wallen is racking up some serious streaming numbers on the platform.
