GTA 6 Trailer 2 Boosts The Pointer Sisters' Spotify Streams

The Pointer Sisters’ track "Hot Together" has experienced an unprecedented surge in Spotify streams after its feature in the newly released trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6, which debuted just yesterday. In the immediate two hours following the trailer's premiere, the 1986 song saw an astonishing increase of 182,000% in global Spotify streams. Although the current Spotify count for "Hot Together" stands at just over 250,000 streams, this number is expected to rise significantly in the coming days.

Sulinna Ong, Spotify’s Global Head of Editorial, remarked 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 has been 24 hours since Rockstar Games unveiled the latest trailer for GTA 6, which has already garnered an impressive 77.7 million views on YouTube at the time of this article's publication. The surge in popularity for "Hot Together" echoes a similar trend seen with Tom Petty's "Love Is A Long Road," which experienced a massive boost in streams following its inclusion in the first GTA 6 trailer in late 2023. The inclusion of Petty's song even sparked numerous fan theories about its connection to the game's storyline, although no such speculation has yet surfaced for "Hot Together."

As fans eagerly await the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, now scheduled for May 26, 2026, after a recent delay, Rockstar continues to provide them with engaging content.
