"Sorry to my city, but I don't think this accomplishment will rank high on Swift's Year in Review. In 2025, the singer/songwriter dropped her 12th album, The Life of a Showgirl, took ownership of her masters, got engaged to footballer and podcast host Travis Kelce, was nominated to the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and she's releasing a behind-the-scenes tour docuseries later this month."
"Despite Swift's popularity, DC's top song isn't one of her tracks. (Justice for lyric of the year, "He ah-matized me!") That accolade belongs to Kendrick Lamar and SZA for "Luther." Lamar's Drake diss track "Not Like Us" was also a top song last year. Will Swift achieve the elusive five-peat in 2026 and become our top artist yet again? If that's the case, we might have to rename the District "Washington, DC (Taylor's Version).""
Spotify Wrapped revealed local and global streaming leaders for the year. Taylor Swift remained the most-streamed musician in Washington, DC, continuing a multi-year hold on that position. In 2025 Swift released her 12th album, The Life of a Showgirl, regained ownership of her masters, got engaged to Travis Kelce, earned a Songwriters Hall of Fame nomination, and will release a behind-the-scenes tour docuseries. Bad Bunny supplanted Swift as the most-streamed artist globally. DC's top song was "Luther" by Kendrick Lamar and SZA, and Kendrick's Drake diss "Not Like Us" also ranked among the city's top songs. Local fans traveled outside the city for the Eras Tour, showing persistent Swiftie loyalty.
