Quote:On April 2nd, Parker added Lorde’s single “Royals” to Hipster International...Six days later, “Royals” debuted on the Spotify Viral Chart...Steve Savoca and his Spotify team began promoting Lorde throughout the platform and featured her on the Spotify homepage. By May Lorde was already number one on Spotify’s Viral Chart
^ I wonder if Steve has noticed Haley's even quicker rise.
Quote:it wasn’t until June that traditional radio began to play “Royals.” Fast forward to today, Lorde’s music has been streamed 100 million times on Spotify (not to mention 92 million views just for “Royals” on Youtube) and is number one on the Billboard Hot 100
