YouTube Music Strying Platform has introduced a new indicator - the Monthly Audience , which defines the most popular performers by the number of unique listeners. In February 2025, Parfeniuk became the leader among Ukrainian artists , collecting 10 million listeners .
Hit that conquered the listeners
One of the main reasons for this success was the Vrubai , which has already gained more than 35 million views on YouTube. The composition has become viral on social networks and is actively used in trend videos on Tiktok and Instagram.
Parfeniuk continues to conquer new listeners, and if the pace of its popularity is preserved, it can be fixed among the leaders of the Ukrainian musical scene .
This is indicated on Google Support.
The YouTube Music Striping Service has introduced a new monthly audience, which reflects the total number of unique listeners and audiences of the content of artists on the platform. The indicator is updated daily and allows you to determine which performer was the most popular during the last 28 days.
It is formed on the basis of:
- Views of official videos of a performer downloaded to his YouTube channel or his label channel.
- Cooperation with other artists where his music is used.
- The popularity in YouTube Shorts, where its tracks use users.
- Fan content containing its compositions.
- Non -musical content posted on the artist's official channels.
According to YouTube, the largest audience has been collected by Parfeniuk over the last month - 10 million listeners. His track "Vrubai" has headed YouTube music trends and currently has more than 35 million views.
Also, the top 10 Ukrainian performers entered:
- Artem Pivovarov - 5.8 million listeners
- KLAVDIA PETRIVNA - 5.4 million
- Kozak System - 4.6 million
- Jerry Heil - 4.35 million
- Yaktak - 4.1 million
- Domiy - 3.9 million
- Kola - 3.7 million
- Tina Karol - 3.5 million
- Elsa's ocean - 3.4 million
MONATIK (3.1 million), Volkanov (3.03 million) and Dorofeeva (2.8 million) were also included in the rating.
The new "Monthly Audience" figure makes it possible to better evaluate the real popularity of performers. It takes into account not only official views, but also the use of their songs in shorts, fan videos and collaborations.
This means that the popularity of the artist is now determined not only by his own releases, but also by how active his music is listening, used on social networks and digital content.
Parfeniuk, who headed the rating, has become an example of an artist who is listened to by millions, and his success proves that Ukrainian music is confidently winning the platform.
