GTA 6 Trailer 2 Boosts The Pointer Sisters' Spotify Streams
The Pointer Sisters' track "Hot Together" has experienced a remarkable surge in Spotify streams after being featured in the newly released trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6, which debuted just yesterday. In the mere two hours following the trailer's premiere, global Spotify streams for the 1986 hit skyrocketed by an astounding 182,000%. Although Spotify's numbers haven't been updated since yesterday, with "Hot Together" currently at just over 250,000 streams, it's evident that this figure is poised for significant growth in the coming days.
Sulinna Ong, Spotify's Global Head of Editorial, commented on the phenomenon, stating, "Grand Theft Auto cuts through popular culture like almost nothing else. Music has been synonymous with the series since the very beginning, so it’s great to see fans both new and established connecting with an iconic track in this way."
It's been 24 hours since Rockstar Games unveiled its latest glimpse into GTA 6, and the trailer has already amassed an impressive 77.7 million views on YouTube as of this writing. The surge in popularity for "Hot Together" is a testament to the power of the GTA franchise, though not entirely unexpected. When the first trailer for Rockstar's latest installment was revealed in late 2023, featuring Tom Petty's "Love Is A Long Road," it also saw a similar massive increase in Spotify streams. This led to a flurry of fan theories about how the song might tie into GTA 6's narrative, though no such speculation has surfaced for "Hot Together" yet.As fans eagerly await the (recently delayed) release of GTA 6 on May 26, 2026, Rockstar continues to provide them with engaging music to enjoy in the meantime. For those interested in diving deeper, you can explore some of the best Trailer 2 fan theories we’ve seen so far, as well as our comprehensive list of 89 details Rockstar tucked into the video.
