GTA 6 Trailer 2 Boosts The Pointer Sisters' Spotify Streams

By JosephMay 12,2025

The Pointer Sisters' "Hot Together" has experienced a monumental surge in Spotify streams following its feature in the newly released trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6, which debuted just yesterday. Within the first two hours after the trailer's premiere, global streams of the 1986 hit skyrocketed by an astonishing 182,000%. Although Spotify's data hasn't been updated since yesterday, "Hot Together" currently stands at just over 250,000 streams, a figure that is expected to rise significantly in the coming days.

Sulinna Ong, Spotify’s Global Head of Editorial, commented on the phenomenon, stating, “Grand Theft Auto cuts through popular culture like almost nothing else. Music has been synonymous with the series since the very beginning, so it’s great to see fans both new and established connecting with an iconic track in this way.”

PlayIt has been 24 hours since Rockstar Games unveiled the latest trailer for GTA 6, which has already garnered an impressive 77.7 million views on YouTube at the time of this article's publication. The surge in popularity for "Hot Together" is remarkable, yet not entirely surprising. When the first trailer for Rockstar's latest installment was revealed in late 2023, the featured song, Tom Petty's "Love Is A Long Road," also saw a similarly massive boost in Spotify streams. This led to a flurry of fan theories about potential connections to GTA 6's storyline, though no such speculation has surfaced for "Hot Together" - at least not yet.

As fans eagerly await the (recently delayed) release of GTA 6 on May 26, 2026, Rockstar is providing them with plenty of great music to enjoy in the interim. In the meantime, you can explore some of the best Trailer 2 fan theories we’ve seen so far, as well as our detailed list of 89 details Rockstar tucked into the video.
