Shavo Odadjian calls “Chop Suey!”’s 1B Spotify streams an unplanned family heirloom
Shavo Odadjian, founding member of SYSTEM OF A DOWN, reflects on the curious afterlife of "Chop Suey!", a track that slipped into the Spotify billion-stream club in 2023 without much ceremony. In an interview with Newsweek, he describes the song’s enduring presence as unexpected, calling it a “phenomenon.”
He credits the track’s longevity to a generational relay, where parents are now passing the music down to their children, creating a cycle of rediscovery he admits he never anticipated.
