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

The Pointer Sisters' classic track "Hot Together" has experienced a phenomenal surge in Spotify streams after its inclusion in the newly released trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6. The trailer, which debuted just yesterday, has catapulted the 1986 song into the spotlight, with a remarkable 182,000% increase in streams within the first two hours alone. Although Spotify's latest figures show "Hot Together" at just over 250,000 streams, these numbers are expected to climb significantly in the coming days.

Sulinna Ong, Spotify’s Global Head of Editorial, commented on the impact of Grand Theft Auto on popular culture, 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.”

The Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer has already amassed an impressive 77.7 million views on YouTube within 24 hours of its release. The success of "Hot Together" mirrors the experience of Tom Petty's "Love Is A Long Road," which saw a similar boost in streams following its feature in the first GTA 6 trailer in late 2023. While "Love Is A Long Road" sparked numerous fan theories about its connection to the game's storyline, "Hot Together" has yet to inspire such speculation.

As fans eagerly await the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, now scheduled for May 26, 2026, after a recent delay, they can enjoy the curated music featured in the trailers. In the meantime, enthusiasts can delve into some of the most intriguing fan theories about the second trailer and explore a detailed list of 89 hidden elements Rockstar Games has embedded in the video.
