What is Spotify Wrapped?

Launched in 2016, Spotify Wrapped is an annual campaign that combines listening data from Spotify users into an interactive display of the user's most listened to music.

Typically, Spotify Wrapped displays a user's most popular songs, artists, and genres. Users are encouraged to share their Spotify Wrapped on social media.

User data is collected from January 1st to the fall of the same year to create a user's Spotify Wrapped.

Music lovers share their concerns about Spotify Wrapped in 2024

Since its official launch in December 2016, app users have been eagerly awaiting the annual release. While the majority seem to enjoy sharing their results, many also joke that their Spotify Wrapped might be “embarrassing.” Music taste is highly subjective, and some may fear online judgment if their listening habits do not align with the music they are meant to hear, whether it relates to a specific artist or a genre as a whole.

Spotify users have started speculating about their versions of Spotify Wrapped and what they might reveal about their personalities and interests.
