The Spotify Wrapped tradition started at the end of 2016 and over the years has grown with 225 million Spotify listeners participating last year alone. In recent years, listeners have boasted about achieving top 1% status for certain artists or having the most obscure genre preferences (remember Goblincore?).

Spotify also shares global and U.S. top listening trends of the year, making it a good time to reflect on the past 12 months and remember a Brat summer or that viral TikTok song.

For both companies and individual companies, the tradition offers the chance to get creative with parody memes and brand-specific versions. All you need to get started is a blank meme template... and we know where you can get a few of those.

How To Find Your Spotify Wrapped 2024

Spotify Wrapped dropped on 4th December and is available on the mobile app homepage and on the desktop via spotify.com/wrapped. However, your Wrapped is only here for a limited time with in-app access usually dropping off by the end of January.

Simply navigate to the 'home' tab on your device and click the 'Wrapped' tab at the top.

What Font Does Spotify Wrapped Use?

For 2024, Spotify rolled out its own unique font for its Wrapped designs called 'Spotify Mix'.

Rasmus Wängelin, global head of brand design, said in an its:

For the first time, we incorporated our brand new bespoke typeface, Spotify Mix, into Wrapped – which gave us the opportunity to create a bolder, dynamic and more unique typographic presence that stands out.
We’re also specifically using our typeface as our main graphic element this year, looping and transforming it in unexpected ways across the canvas.

For the meme templates above, we used a font called CircularStd-Black for the thicker, rounded text, and Nunito for the thin text. They're both incredibly similar and you can use them alongside hundreds of official Google fonts or by uploading your own fonts when using Kapwing's Meme Maker.

Spotify Wrapped 2024 Glossary: Average Minutes

So there's your total time spent listening to music on Spotify and then there's the average of everyone collectively for the year. This can be broken down by age group, gender, location, and other demographics. You can see how your personal stats stack up to the average of people like you.

Total Minutes

This one can go either way: pride or utter horror. Total minutes is a tally of how many 60-second intervals you were streaming music on the app during the Spotify Wrapped period (usually about 11 months of streaming tracking). Data from 2023 shows that the average amount of time on Spotify for Wrapped 2023 for all users was 26,637 minutes. That's almost 18.5 days of nonstop listening.

Top 0.001% and 0.005%

For any artists that you have on repeat, expect to see them in your top lists. For listeners in the top 0.001% or 0.005% for a certain artist, that means you really put in the minutes. Technically you are classified as a Super Listener based on all listeners around the world.

If you're keen on racking up likes and views on social media, sharing your top 0.001% is a proven crowd-pleaser. Finding Facebook groups or Reddit communities to share your listening habits is also a great form of PR, especially if you are one of the top listeners for a more niche or unrecognized artist.

Top Songs

Soon your 2024 list will share which songs you couldn't get enough of. Your top songs count the number of plays (past the first 30 seconds), not the number of minutes listened to each song.

While you can't see exactly how many plays your no. 1 song racked up on your personal counter, you can see the global listens from around the world. For 2023, Miley Cyrus' "Flowers" was no. 1 in the world with 1.6 billion streams. Look up "Your Top Songs 2023" playlist to see what you played again and again last year.

Top Artists

Similar to top songs, your top artists are the musicians you streamed again and again. Spotify counts the number of tracks played during the Wrapped timeframe and analyzes which artists stack up. Sounds simple, but for your no. 4 and 5 artist, it isn't always obvious who will make the cut. Again this is based on total plays, not minutes listened.

Top Albums

Just looking at your top songs doesn't necessarily mean you know what your top albums are for Wrapped. Spotify looks at how many streams of songs you have across entire albums. If your total streams from across an album's tracks are the highest that'll be your no. 1 — even if your no. 1 song wasn't on that album. Bad Bunny's "Un Verano Sin Ti" was the top album in 2023 across all listeners around the world. But interestingly, none of Bad Bunny's individual songs made it to the global Top 10.

Top Podcasts

Time spent listening to podcasts counts toward your total time streaming on Spotify. But within all those minutes Spotify differentiates between podcasts and music. For podcasts, it's about how much time you spent taking in those shows rather than play counts (not many people are re-listening to podcast episodes). In 2023, The Joe Rogan Experience was the world's top podcast.

Top Genres

Spotify gets creative with its genres — and there are a lot of them, as many as 6,000. While there are the usual like Rock, Afrobeats, and pop categories, Spotify adds some spice to its genre categorization with more specific sub-genres such as Sad Rap, Hyperpop (within electronic music), or Shoegaze (a type of alternative rock).

For your Wrapped look-back, Spotify identifies your top 5 most-listened genres, which might include some more obscure labels. Be prepared for some Googling to better understand your musical proclivities.

2023 Glossary: Listening Characters

New for Spotify Wrapped 2023 was the introduction of 12 characters to help describe each listener based on individual habits and trends on the app. The same cast might return this year, maybe with new friends joining the fray. A full list includes:

  • Vampire
  • Alchemist
  • Time Traveler
  • Cyclops
  • Luminary
  • Mastermind
  • Roboticist
  • Shapeshifter
  • Collector

Personalities

For 2022, Spotify introduced 16 Music Listening Personalities based on four metrics: Familiarity vs. Exploration, Loyalty vs. Variety, Timelessness vs. Newness, and Commonality vs. Uniqueness. Whatever your mix of listening habits, your Personality was determined as:

  • The Adventurer

  • The Devotee
  • The Replayer
  • The Connoisseur

Sound Towns

Another 2023 new feature, Sound Towns matched listeners to cities with similar listening data based on frequent songs and artists played. Spotify placed listeners in more than 1,300 places around the world, even if it felt like certain places came up again and again (Burlington, VT was a popular spot on social media). Each "town" has a real top 10 streamed songs of the year list.
