Another year is coming to an end, and what a year it has been for music. iHeartRadio listeners around the country couldn't get enough of their favorite artists, whether it was tuning in to new songs released throughout 2023 or pressing repeat on an oldie but a goodie. iHeartRadio is giving you a peak at what others were listening to the most during 2023 with iHeartRewind, analyzing streaming data to determine the top artist, song and podcast in each state.

Missouri's top artist in 2023 was country star Morgan Wallen, with fellow country singer Bailey Zimmerman's "Rock And A Hard Place" earning the title of top song. Additionally, it seems as though people in the Show-Me State couldn't get enough of true crime stories, with Crime Junkie being named the top podcast.

When it comes to the most played artist of the year overall, no musician was streamed as much as Taylor Swift — and given the success of her massive Eras Tour this year, not to mention dropping both Speak Now (Taylor's Version) and 1989 (Taylor's Version), that shouldn't come as a surprise. In fact, she had an incredible 2.8 billion total audience spins across iHeartRadio stations around the country as well as on the iHeartRadio app. As for the most streamed song, that honor belongs to Miley Cyrus, whose self-love anthem "Flowers" claimed the top spot with more than 1.4 billion spins.
