Spotify Wrapped 2024 is happening soon, and music fans are eager to share what artists and music they’ve been listening to all year.
Started in 2016, Spotify Wrapped is an annual event that happens near the end of the year, where all listening data throughout the year is compiled into an interactive slideshow showing top songs, genres, and artists. The data is also compared between users, showing users the percentage of top listeners they land on. Spotify users every year are excited to learn their listening habits, and share it on social media when the Wrapped event arrives.
A notification has recently been sent on the Spotify app, alerting people that the annual event is happening soon. While the release date has not been confirmed, judging by past years, Spotify Wrapped 2024 can be expected by late November, to early December.
LFU Freshman student Jose Guerrero is really looking forward to seeing her 2024 recap.
“I’m more excited to see what I’m listening to,” Guerrero said. “I love to see how my music taste has changed throughout the year. A lot of apps I use already have connections to Spotify, so people already know what I’m listening to. I like the personalized aspect of it.”
Overall, many students like to compare music tastes, comparing both their own and other people’s tastes. It feels like an event to many, with the major part of the appeal being seeing other peoples Wrapped on social media.
Sophomore Valerie Gaytan said this will be her third Spotify Wrapped.
“I want to see who I’ve listened to throughout the year,” Gaytan said. “I can compare it to last year, and see what has changed. I also like to see other people’s Spotify Wrapped on social media.”
