Some time soon – maybe even tomorrow! – your social media will likely be full of people sharing their stats on their listening history for the year.
Spotify have managed to create a festive tradition as eagerly awaited as Santa himself by some, with the Wrapped annual data on what we’ve been listening to.
Many are wondering when this year’s highly anticipated review will be released, and whether they will be among the top listeners of their faves.
The music streaming company has not given a specific date for when it will hit our phones, but in previous years, it has been right around now.
When could Spotify Wrapped 2024 come out?
For the last three years, it has been on a Wednesday. Last year it was Wednesday November 29, the year before Wednesday November 30, and in 2021 it was Wednesday December 1.
Tomorrow is…. Wednesday November 27, so if they don’t break with tradition, it could be prime time for the stats to be shared.
It’s a little earlier than before, however, so next week on Wednesday December 4 could also be possible.
Maybe they’ll keep us guessing by choosing a different day of the week entirely, but check your phone tomorrow nevertheless as it could be a good bet.
Last year, users complained they did not receive a notification or even got an error message, so you may need to log in to find your details.
What were the top songs and artists of 2023?
Spotify said of their worldwide Wrapped data, Taylor Swift was the top artist, with more than 26.1 billion global streams since January 1.
Second place was Bad Bunny, who had taken first place the previous year, followed by The Weeknd, Drake, and Peso Pluma.
The top songs had different contenders though, with the most streamed being ‘Flowers’ by Miley Cyrus (more than 1.6 billion streams in 2023), followed by ‘Kill Bill’ by SZA and ‘As It Was’ by Harry Styles. Fourth and fifth came from Jung Kook with ‘Seven (feat. Latto)’, and Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma with ‘Ella Baila Sola.’
Whether the same artists have so much success this year remains to be seen.
When does Spotify Wrapped stop counting?
There has long been a suspicion that Spotify stops counting your listening stats on October 31.
But the company has denied this on social media, posting on X last year: ‘Don’t worry, Wrapped is still counting past Oct. 31’.
They have been tight-lipped on the exact date but told users in a pop-up message last month that 2024 is ‘almost a wrap,’ and have advised users to make sure their app is updated to experience Wrapped ‘at its best’.
Is Spotify Wrapped only for Premium subscribers?
No, Spotify Wrapped is available for both Free and Premium users.
However, Premium users get additional personalised data, such as how many new artists they discovered that year.
