Spotify acaba de presentar el informe Loud & Clear de este a o, una mirada transparente a c mo la econom a del streaming sigue apoyando a los artistas y alimentando el crecimiento explosivo de la industria musical. Loud & Clear es una iniciativa anual que busca desmitificar c mo los artistas generan ingresos a trav s del streaming, aclarar la distribuci n de regal as y resaltar el panorama musical global que est en constante evoluci n. El informe m s reciente destaca ingresos r cord, una mayor diversidad de artistas y una industria musical m s globalizada que nunca.
Una industria en auge Los servicios de streaming musical ahora cuentan con m s de 500 millones de suscriptores de pago en todo el mundo (seg n IFPI), y un futuro con mil millones de oyentes de pago est cada vez m s cerca. En 2024, s lo Spotify pag $10 mil millones de d lares a la industria musical, m s que cualquier una nica empresa en un solo a o. La mejor noticia? Este aumento en los pagos est beneficiando a artistas de todos los niveles.
Rompiendo fronteras y ampliando la representaci n El crecimiento de la industria musical no es solo financiero, sino tambi n cultural. Cada vez m s artistas est n alcanzando el xito fuera de sus pa ses de origen, con m s idiomas y voces diversas llegando al mainstream. En 2024, los artistas que generaron al menos $100,000 d lares en regal as grabaron m sica en m s de 50 idiomas, mientras que los artistas que generaron al menos $1 mill n de d lares en Spotify lo hicieron en 17 idiomas diferentes, m s del doble de los idiomas presentes en estos niveles en 2017.
Las mujeres tambi n est n logrando avances hist ricos en Spotify. El n mero de artistas femeninas que generan m s de $1 mill n de d lares al a o se ha cuadruplicado desde 2017. En mercados como Canad , Corea del Sur, Suecia y Argentina, la representaci n femenina entre los principales artistas es particularmente fuerte.
El factor exportaci n: el fandom global impulsa el xito de los artistas Hoy en d a, los artistas ya no dependen nicamente de sus mercados locales. M s del 50% de los artistas que generaron al menos $1,000 d lares en regal as en Spotify en 2024 obtuvieron la mayor parte de sus ingresos de oyentes fuera de su pa s de origen. Esto demuestra el papel clave que juega la exportaci n en el xito y la sostenibilidad de una carrera musical.
Alrededor de un tercio de estos artistas obtuvieron m s del 75% de sus regal as de fuera de su pa s, mostrando el poder del streaming global para impulsar los ingresos de los artistas. Y en el nivel de los $100,000 d lares, las conexiones internacionales son a n m s profundas: m s del 80% de estos artistas han colaborado con m sicos de otros pa ses.
M s artistas, m s xito Spotify ha ayudado a democratizar la industria musical para artistas en todas las etapas de sus carreras. Desde 2017, el n mero de artistas que generan entre $1,000 y $10 millones de d lares anualmente se ha triplicado.
Un dato clave: casi una cuarta parte de los 12,500 artistas que generaron m s de $100,000 d lares en 2024 no estaban lanzando m sica profesionalmente hace cinco a os.
El xito en la era del streaming ya no depende de un cat logo de d cadas ni de un hit n mero uno en las listas.
M s del 80% de los artistas con mayores ingresos en Spotify ni siquiera aparecen en el Global Daily Top 50, lo que demuestra que los m sicos independientes y los g neros de nicho pueden prosperar en la nueva econom a del streaming. Mientras tanto, en 2024, los artistas y sellos independientes generaron colectivamente m s de $5 mil millones de d lares en Spotify, representando aproximadamente la mitad del total de regal as de Spotify por otro a o.
Regal as r cord e impacto en la industria Spotify sigue liderando la industria musical en pagos de regal as, con m s de $10 mil millones de d lares distribuidos en 2024, multiplicando por diez los pagos en los ltimos diez a os. Desde su creaci n, la compa a ha pagado aproximadamente $60 mil millones de d lares en regal as.
Los pagos a los editores y compositores tambi n han alcanzado nuevos picos, superando los $4.5 mil millones de d lares en los ltimos dos a os, con un crecimiento de dos d gitos s lo entre 2023 y 2024.
El futuro: los fans impulsan la evoluci n de la m sica El futuro de la m sica est siendo moldeado por su fuerza m s apasionada: los fans. A medida que contin an apoyando a los artistas a trav s de plataformas de streaming, surgir n nuevas oportunidades de innovaci n, colaboraci n y expresi n creativa.
Con un acceso global a sonidos y culturas m s diverso que nunca, los artistas seguir n rompiendo barreras y los fans jugar n un papel a n m s importante en definir la pr xima era de la m sica. La industria no solo est creciendo, sino que est evolucionando hacia un ecosistema donde oyentes y creadores prosperan juntos.
