If you've been keeping tabs on Grand Theft Auto 6, you know the excitement surrounding its recent trailer release has sent ripples across pop culture—and the music streaming world. The Pointer Sisters' classic hit "Hot Together" experienced a jaw-dropping surge in Spotify streams, skyrocketing by a mind-blowing 182,000% within just two hours of the trailer's debut. Although Spotify hasn’t updated the numbers since then, the track currently hovers around 250,000 streams, and that figure is expected to climb even higher soon.
Spotify's Global Head of Editorial, Sulinna Ong, chimed in, saying, “Grand Theft Auto cuts through popular culture like almost nothing else. Music has always been central to the series, so it’s fantastic to see fans old and new rediscovering timeless tracks this way.”
Since the trailer dropped, it has amassed a staggering 77.7 million views on YouTube, further cementing its place as one of the most anticipated gaming events in recent memory. While "Hot Together" hasn’t sparked the same narrative theories as Tom Petty’s "Love Is A Long Road" did during the first trailer, its resurgence is no less remarkable. Fans are clearly enjoying the musical journey as they eagerly await GTA 6’s release on May 26, 2026.
