GTA 6 Trailer 2 Boosts The Pointer Sisters' Spotify Streams

The Pointer Sisters’ track "Hot Together" has experienced a phenomenal 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 astonishing 182,000%. Although Spotify's latest figures indicate that "Hot Together" currently stands at just over 250,000 streams, these numbers are expected to climb significantly in the coming days.

“Grand Theft Auto cuts through popular culture like almost nothing else,” remarked Spotify’s Global Head of Editorial, Sulinna Ong. “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 now 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 at the time of this report. The sudden popularity of "Hot Together" is remarkable yet not unexpected. When the first trailer for Rockstar's latest installment was released in late 2023, featuring Tom Petty's "Love Is A Long Road," it also saw a massive spike in Spotify streams. This surge inspired numerous fan theories about potential connections to the game's storyline, a phenomenon yet to emerge for "Hot Together."

As fans eagerly await the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, now scheduled for May 26, 2026, after a recent delay, they have plenty of great music to enjoy in the meantime.
