Indonesian singer and songwriter NIKI has led the highest streaming volume in the ASEAN region, with a total of more than 6.06 billion streams as of February 25, 2026. This achievement makes her the first Indonesian musician to record the highest cumulative streaming numbers across Southeast Asia.

The figure is based on total plays compiled by the music data tracking website kworb.net, which aggregates streaming statistics from major digital platforms. The data highlights NIKI’s strong and consistent presence on Spotify, reflecting sustained listener engagement across multiple markets in the region.

The same dataset also shows that other Indonesian musicians are gaining significant traction. Artists such as Tulus and Hindia rank among the most streamed acts in ASEAN, signaling a broader rise of Indonesian music on digital platforms.

This milestone aligns with the rapid growth of digital music consumption in Southeast Asia. The region has seen steady increases in paid subscriptions, mobile streaming, and cross-border listenership, creating larger audiences for artists who can build loyal fan bases online.
