Taylor Swift has been named IFPI’s Global Recording Artist of the Year 2024, marking her third consecutive year at the top and setting a new record as the first artist to win the award five times.
The pop superstar’s latest win, announced Tuesday (February 18), follows her previous IFPI Global Artist victories in 2014, 2019, 2022, and 2023.
IFPI’s Global Recording Artist of the Year Award is calculated based on an artist’s worldwide performance across streaming, downloads, and physical music formats throughout the calendar year.
“We are immensely proud to award the IFPI Global Recording Artist of the Year Award to Taylor Swift for the fifth time, as she continues to redefine the limits of global success,” IFPI CEO Victoria Oakley said.
