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

The Pointer Sisters' hit song "Hot Together" has experienced a monumental surge in Spotify streams following its feature in the newly released trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6. The trailer, which premiered just yesterday, has catapulted the 1986 track to new heights, with global Spotify streams skyrocketing by an astounding 182,000% within the first two hours of the trailer's release. Although the latest Spotify figures still show "Hot Together" at just over 250,000 streams, these numbers are expected to see significant growth in the coming days.

Sulinna Ong, Spotify's Global Head of Editorial, commented on this 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.”

It has been 24 hours since Rockstar Games unveiled its latest glimpse into GTA 6, with the trailer amassing an impressive 77.7 million views on YouTube by the time of this article's publication. The dramatic increase in streams for "Hot Together" is not surprising, given the precedent set by the first GTA 6 trailer released in late 2023. That trailer featured Tom Petty's "Love Is A Long Road," which also saw a massive boost in Spotify streams. This surge sparked numerous fan theories about the song's connection to GTA 6's storyline, though no similar speculation has yet surfaced for "Hot Together."

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 meantime. While waiting, you can delve into some of the best Trailer 2 fan theories we’ve seen so far, and explore our comprehensive list of 89 details Rockstar tucked into the video.
