The Argentine producer Gonzalo Julián Conde, known as
Bizarrap
, continues to rise and break all the metrics of the music industry.
After last month he was recognized by the
Guinness Record
awards with four certificates for the song together with Shakira, now he was distinguished by
Spotify
for
exceeding one billion views
for his Session #52 with Quevedo and his famous chorus "
Quédate, que the night without you hurts
."
The song released in July 2022 reached one billion views on the music platform and that is why the company gave him a plate with the number reached.
It was the company itself that highlighted that
Biza
is the first Argentine to reach that mark
.
Thus, the platform's Instagram account celebrated this triumph: "Welcome Bizarrap to Spotify's billion club."
The topic caused a sensation as soon as it was released.
In fact, 10 days after it came to light, it reached
global No. 1 on Spotify
and weeks later it became the song
with the most streams in the country during 2022
.
In addition, the producer went from having 1.2 million global views on Spotify to achieving more than 2.9 billion in 2022 and even managed to become the
most listened to Argentine artist in the world
last year, ranking 49th globally.
The other impressive record that he achieved
In March, both Bizarrap and Shakira entered
music history
, as they achieved the unusual mark of obtaining four Guinness Record awards.
"Sessions 53", released on January 12, was a piece of music that both produced, performed and presented via YouTube with a strong message from the artist against former Spanish footballer Gerard Piqué, her former partner and father of her children.
The song set the record for
the most viewed Latin track on the video platform
in its first 24 hours with 63 million views and later became the
fastest Latin track to reach 100 million views
on the same site.
His success wasn't exclusive to YouTube though, as he also held the record for the
most streamed Latin track on Spotify in 24 hours
with 14,393,342 streams from fans.
By the end of the first week, that number had grown to 80,646,962, also making the song the
most streamed piece of Latin music on Spotify in a week
.
Bizarrap is the first artist from Argentina to peak at No. 1 on the combined global music charts, a feat he has now achieved twice in just seven months.
