Spotify Wrapped 2024: Your Musical Year in Review is Almost Here!
This week, the UK's seen its first snowfall, and you know what that means? Christmas Number 1 season is upon us, and it's nearly time to see your music year in review, courtesy of Spotify Wrapped. Launched in 2016, Spotify Wrapped allows users to see their most-streamed songs, artists, and genres of the year, all displayed through a series of shareable infographics. As 2024 draws to a close, anticipation builds as music lovers eagerly await the release of their personalized musical journey.
When Can We Expect Spotify Wrapped 2024?
The exact launch date for Spotify Wrapped 2024 is still a mystery, but the platform’s historical release dates offer a clue. In recent years, the round-up has landed on:
- 2023: November 30
- 2022: November 30
- 2021: December 1
- 2020: December 1
- 2019: December 5
- 2018: December 6
Given this trend, a late November or early December release is highly probable. The excitement is palpable, especially as users wonder if their questionable Fast Food Rockers listening habits will be exposed (no judgment here!).
The Extended Deadline
Interestingly, Spotify initially set a November 15th deadline for artists to submit thank-you clips for inclusion in Wrapped 2024. However, the deadline was later extended to November 20th. This suggests that the data collection process for Wrapped continues past October 31st, a fact confirmed by Spotify's October 31st post: "Spotify Wrapped doesn’t stop counting on October 31st." This extended deadline implies that your listening habits from the entire year will shape your Wrapped 2024 summary.
How to Access Your Spotify Wrapped
Spotify Wrapped should automatically appear in your Spotify app on mobile or desktop upon its release. Alternatively, iOS and Android users can find their round-up by navigating to the app's home section. To fully appreciate the viral hype, remember: you must be a Spotify subscriber!
What to Expect in Your Spotify Wrapped 2024
While the specific details remain under wraps, we can anticipate similar elements to previous years. Expect your most-streamed tracks, artists, genres, and potentially even your top podcasts. The excitement lies in discovering how your musical tastes align with global trends and which artists dominated your listening experience in 2024. The platform's historical data reveals some insight:
Last year’s top five listened-to tracks globally were:
- Miley Cyrus - Flowers
- SZA - Kill Bill
- Harry Styles - As It Was
- Jung Kook ft. Latto - Seven
- Peso Pluma & Eslabon Armado - Ella baila sola
Taylor Swift reigned supreme as the most-streamed artist in 2023, followed by Bad Bunny, The Weeknd, Drake, and Peso Pluma. Bad Bunny's album "Un Verano Sin Ti" was the most-listened-to album of 2023, with Swift's "Midnights" closely trailing behind. The Joe Rogan Experience and Call Her Daddy claimed the top spots in the podcast category.
Getting a Sneak Peek (Maybe)
While the official launch is imminent, your curiosity might be piqued by the thought of an early peek. Several third-party services offer ongoing tracking of your listening data, providing a less visually polished but still informative preview of your musical year. Stats for Spotify provides similar data updated daily, while services like Volt.fm or Stats.fm (formerly Spotistats) offer a more in-depth analysis at a cost. However, the official Spotify Wrapped experience, with its visually appealing presentation, remains unmatched.
The Countdown Begins
The anticipation is building as we eagerly await Spotify Wrapped 2024. The exact date remains undisclosed, yet the typical late-November timeframe suggests that the release is just around the corner. Get ready to share your musical journey with friends and relive the sounds of your 2024! Remember, keep playing what you love—Spotify will let you know when your personalized summary is ready. This year's Wrapped is sure to offer a captivating reflection of your musical tastes and preferences. Let the countdown begin!
