4 December, 2024

Spotify Wrapped 2024

Spotify Wrapped 2024 is finally here – see how to look back on your year in music, and find the platform’s biggest tracks, artists and more below.

The streaming giant’s annual Wrapped feature has become a staple of music lovers’ festive period – reflecting their listening habits from the past 12 months in its ‘Celebration Of Your Year’ experience.

Eligible users can now access their 2024 Wrapped on the Spotify mobile app via iOS and Android. Visit here to see yours.

This year, Wrapped boasts some new features in the personalised run-down. These include a new AI innovation where “fans can dive deeper into their year’s top songs, artists, and genres, delivered using generative AI by two dynamic hosts”.

The ‘AI DJ’ function also allows users to enjoy “a next-level listening experience to Wrapped, providing commentary about your year alongside the music that soundtracked it”. Additionally, the ‘AI Playlist’ lets Premium subscribers “create personalised playlists using their Wrapped data”.

Fans can look back on their music evolution too, and see the artist they enjoyed most this year with ‘Longest Listening Streak’, plus the fan-favourite ‘Top Listeners’ that reveals what percentage of listeners you’re in for your top act.

The likes of Billie Eilish, Usher and Sabrina Carpenter have also joined thousands of names in recording video messages to thank fans who have them as their top acts on Wrapped 2024.

Premium users will receive a personalised playlist that brings together music videos from their most-loved musician of 2024. Podcast fans, meanwhile, can see short messages from some of their favourite hosts.

Music lovers who want to share their Wrapped 2024 results can do so via messaging apps and their preferred social media channels – including TikTok.

Spotify has also launched its 2024 Wrapped Creator Experience for podcast creators, artists, advertisers and – new for this year – authors.

In addition to Wrapped, Spotify has shared its annual lists of the most-streamed artists, songs, albums, podcasts and audiobooks in the UK and globally, as well as the top authors worldwide.

Taylor Swift comes in at Number One on both the UK and global Top Artists run-down. Both versions also feature the likes of The Weeknd, Billie Eilish and Drake, with Ariana Grande and Bad Bunny being among the biggest acts around the world.

The most streamed song in the UK this year was Noah Kahan‘s ‘Stick Season’, closely followed by Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Espresso’ (Number Two), Benson Boone‘s ‘Beautiful Things’ (Number Three), Hozier‘s ‘Too Sweet’ (Number Four) and Teddy Swims’ ‘Lose Control’ (Number Five).

For the global chart, Carpenter’s ‘Espresso’ was named the most-streamed track on Spotify in 2024. Billie Eilish’s ‘Birds Of A Feather’ appears in both the UK and global list of songs.

The biggest album on Spotify in the UK and around the world was the ‘Anthology’ version of Swift’s 11th studio record, ‘The Tortured Poets Department’. The pop megastar’s ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’ came in at Number Five on the UK list, and Number Six on global. Her 2019 album ‘Lover’ made both charts as well.

Eilish’s ‘Hit Me Hard And Soft’ and Carpenter’s ‘Short N’ Sweet’ featured in both album charts too.

Additionally, Spotify has shared the chart for its most viral songs globally – which features Chappell Roan‘s ‘Good Luck, Babe!’, Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga‘s ‘Die With A Smile’ and more.
