In a groundbreaking achievement for Indian music, rapper and singer Yo Yo Honey Singh has stormed past global icons like Drake, Eminem, and Kendrick Lamar on YouTube Music, clocking over 335 million monthly listeners.
This milestone marks a historic moment not only for Honey Singh but also for the Indian music industry, which continues to gain global traction. Known for his infectious beats and unique fusion of Punjabi, hip-hop, and Bollywood styles, Singh’s resurgence on the digital charts has stunned industry observers and fans alike.
Often criticized and celebrated in equal measure, Honey Singh has made an undeniable comeback after years of staying away from the limelight. With hits like “Kalaastar,” “Saiyaan Ji,” and his recent viral collaborations, the rapper has managed to reconnect with both Gen Z and longtime fans across continents.
What makes this feat even more remarkable is that Singh now ranks ahead of some of the biggest names in global music. As per the latest YouTube Music statistics, he has overtaken the monthly listener count of Drake, Eminem, and Kendrick Lamar, all considered titans of the genre.
With more projects in the pipeline and stadium tours lined up later this year, it seems like Yo Yo Honey Singh’s global takeover has only just begun.
