As 2025 comes to a close, it is time for my year-end playlists of 2025. I will start with the most popular hits of 2025, according to Mediabase, categorized by 10 different genres.

Who is Mediabase? Mediabase is the music industry’s gold standard for tracking what North America is actually listening to. By monitoring real-time airplay across thousands of radio stations in the U.S. and Canada, Mediabase provides the definitive data used by USA Today, Billboard, and major countdown shows to determine which songs are truly “hits”.

Table of Contents:

  • Top 40 (top 20)

  • R&B (top 20)

  • Urban (top 20)

  • Country (top 20)

  • Dance (top 20)

  • Rock (top 20)

  • Alternative (top 20)

  • Christian (top 20)

  • Spanish Contemporary (top 20)

  • Regional Mexican (top 20)

  • Spotify Playlist - 200 Songs!

There is some overlap of songs, but I added duplicates to keep the integrity of the genres.
