The disturbing sexual misconduct allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs haven’t turned listeners away from his music. In fact, the rapper’s Spotify listenership has actually surged in the month since he was arrested and charged with sex trafficking, among other crimes.

Here are the key stats: Diddy’s Spotify listeners increased 36% between Sept. 16, the day he was arrested in New York City, and Oct. 16, according to new data shared by Chartmetric, a music streaming analytics company.

In terms of total fans, Diddy had 13.2 million Spotify listeners over the past month — which is about 3.5 million more monthly listeners than he had in September, August and July, when his listenership was fairly static, per Chartmetric’s data.

Diddy’s most-streamed song over the last month is “Gotta Move On,” featuring Bryson Tiller, off his 2023 album, “The Love Album: Off the Grid.” Other popular tracks include “I’ll Be Missing You,” his 1997 ode to Notorious B.I.G. following the Bad Boy rapper’s murder; and “Another One of Me,” also off the aforementioned 2023 album.
