GTA 6 Trailer 2 Boosts The Pointer Sisters' "Hot Together" on Spotify

The Pointer Sisters' "Hot Together" has experienced an unprecedented surge in Spotify streams after being featured in the newly released trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6, which debuted just yesterday. In the mere two hours following the trailer's premiere, global Spotify streams for the 1986 hit skyrocketed by an astonishing 182,000%. Although Spotify's latest figures still show "Hot Together" at just over 250,000 streams, this number is expected to rise significantly in the coming days.

"Grand Theft Auto cuts through popular culture like almost nothing else," stated Spotify's Global Head of Editorial, Sulinna Ong. "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."

[ttpp]It has been 24 hours since Rockstar Games unveiled its latest glimpse into GTA 6, with the trailer already amassing an impressive 77.7 million views on YouTube at the time of this report. The resurgence of "Hot Together" is remarkable, yet not entirely surprising. When Rockstar released the first trailer for GTA 6 in late 2023, featuring Tom Petty's "Love Is A Long Road," it too saw a massive increase in Spotify streams. The song's inclusion sparked numerous fan theories about its potential connections to the game's storyline, a phenomenon that has yet to emerge for "Hot Together."

As fans eagerly await the release of GTA 6, now scheduled for May 26, 2026, after a recent delay, Rockstar is providing them with plenty of great music to enjoy in the meantime.
