Pointer Sisters' Hit Single Takes Over Spotify Playlists - Spotify Users to Rejoice: The Pointer Sisters Now Available on Streaming Platform
The Pointer Sisters, an American pop soul group, created renowned hits such as "Jump (For My Love)" and "I'm So Excited." Today, another tune by them, the 1986 gem "Hot Together," has taken the music streaming world by storm, thanks to its showcasing in the trailblazing "Grand Theft Auto 6" (GTA 6) trailer.
Released on Wednesday, the GTA 6 trailer has enamored gamers the world over, leading to a remarkable upsurge in the visibility of "Hot Together." Streaming platform Spotify reported a whopping 182,000 percent jump in views for the 40-year-old track within mere hours following the trailer's introduction on YouTube and other platforms.
IGN cites a representative from the company, claiming: "Grand Theft Auto' punctures pop culture like scarcely anything else. Music has been the heart of the series since the beginning, so it's fantastic to witness both seasoned and fresh fans embracing a timeless melody in this manner."
Regrettably, the success byproduct can't be reaped by the band's original members. June Pointer passed away in 2006, while Bonnie and Anita followed suit in 2020 and 2022, respectively. Though, the band's matriarch, Ruth, has remained the driving force since 1972, continuing her impressive career with her daughter Issa since 2002 and her great-niece Sadako Pointer Johnson since 2009.
GTA 6 Trailer Captivates Millions of Gamers Instantly
The second trailer for GTA 6, developed by Rockstar Games, has sent shockwaves throughout the gaming community, garnering 85 million views on YouTube alone (as of May 8, 12 pm). According to The Hollywood Reporter, the total number of views across all platforms has already skyrocketed to around 500 million.
The unfettered excitement surrounding the new addition to the open-world game franchise does not seem to be quelled, despite (or perhaps owing to) the recent revelation of a delay in the release of GTA 6. Initially scheduled for this year, the new target date now stands at May 26, 2026.
