Spotify Artist API

Spotify artist — followers, monthlyListeners, worldRank, topCities, topTracks with playCount, concerts, and related artists (1 credit).

Pass a Spotify artist URL, URI, or ID and get a clean profile: name (track/artist title — not a profile displayName alias), description, image, followers, monthlyListeners, worldRank, topCities[{city,country,region,listeners}], externalLinks[], verified, topTracks[] (with playCount), concerts[], relatedArtists[], and albums[]/singles[] samples plus albumsCount/singlesCount and albumsHasMore/singlesHasMore. Flat 1 credit. monthlyListeners, topCities, and worldRank are not on Spotify's public Web API. The overview GraphQL only embeds a short discography sample — when HasMore is true, chain release URIs into /spotify/album. Pass raw=true only if you need the full upstream GraphQL payload (omitted by default — it is ~80% of the old response).
