FarsiChart is a free, non-profit, community-driven project dedicated to documenting the top Persian music artists using transparent, real-time streaming data. We believe the Persian and Iranian music community deserves an independent, data-driven chart that accurately reflects the popularity of its artists worldwide.

Persian rap is one of the fastest-growing music genres in the Middle East. The Iranian hip-hop movement began in the early 2000s and today, top Persian rappers command millions of monthly listeners on Spotify. The Tehran rap scene and the Los Angeles Persian rap community are the two major hubs, but Iranian hip-hop artists are now emerging from cities across Europe and North America.

The primary ranking metric is Spotify monthly listeners — the rolling 28-day count of unique listeners Spotify reports on each artist's public profile page. This is collected daily via automated data pulls from Spotify's public artist pages. Artists with no Spotify presence are ranked by RadioJavan total plays only and appear below Spotify-ranked artists in the default sort order.
Secondary display metrics are Spotify followers, RadioJavan monthly plays, and RadioJavan total plays. These are shown in the table and are sortable but do not affect the default rank order. RadioJavan data is pulled from each artist's public RadioJavan profile. FarsiChart is not affiliated with Spotify or RadioJavan and receives no data compensation from either platform.
Rank-change arrows reflect the difference between today's position and the prior day's position. An artist can move dozens of ranks in 24 hours after a viral release — which is what makes this chart more useful than a static "best of" list.
FarsiChart has tracked Persian and Iranian music streaming data every day since early 2024. It is a free, community-run project with no label affiliations, no paid placements, and no editorial curation — rankings reflect only the numbers. Artists cannot pay to appear higher, and no artist has ever been removed from the chart for commercial reasons. If you believe a data point is incorrect, contact us via Instagram and we will verify against the source platform within 48 hours.
FarsiChart is built by the community, for the community. If you know a Persian or Iranian artist who is not yet on the chart, submit them using the form above. Simply provide their Spotify URL, RadioJavan URL, or both, and select the genre category. All submissions are reviewed before being added. We aim to be as comprehensive as possible — from mainstream stars to underground talent.
