U.K. Recorded Music Revenue Hit Record High in 2024 on Continued Streaming Growth
U.K. recorded music revenue hit a record high in 2024, according to the BPI's new report, driven by continued growth in paid streaming subscriptions.
These included “Stargazing”, the breakthrough hit by BRITs Rising Star 2025 winner Myles Smith, as well as releases by fellow British artists Cassö, RAYE, D-Block Europe(“Prada”), and Artemas (“I Like The Way You Kiss Me”). Despite gains in each area of the U.K. recorded music market, Dr. Jo Twist, BPI’s CEO, stressed the importance of raising awareness around the government’s potential future approach to generative artificial intelligence training. “Crucially, this requires the exciting potential of AI to be realised by the government safeguarding the UK’s gold-standard copyright framework and not siding with global big tech at the expense of human artistry and our world-leading creative industries,” Twist continued.
