Spotify Wrapped is a popular yearly Spotify program that shows you a replay of the music you played this year. It has been very popular on social media, including stories on Snapchat, TikTok, and Instagram.
Despite all the negative reception over this year’s Spotify Wrapped this year was its peak as it brought in numbers never before seen by Spotify even though it wasn’t a commercial success it was a company success as it has seen numbers go up 26% since 2023 even though it was late this year there still is no real date for it but people still think that it was super late.
“Caroline Polachek still uses the app. She took to her Instagram story to share tips on how to work against its algorithm, which encourages and exacerbates a sonic echo chamber, after stating she will “probably stop using it next year.”
Some people say that the new Spotify AI was making mistakes and wasn’t accurate. “Personal reveal: my top artist was Charli XCX, so the “podcast hosts” decided to delve into what this meant for my year. In doing so, they discussed her collaborations with the likes of, sure, Taylor Swift. Girl, have I missed something?” The news page Still Listening said. A lot of people said that the AI’s voices were annoying and they didn’t like this new feature.
“Wow, you listened to the most music on August 9th!” those deliriously annoying AI voices mused, I wonder if you were at a concert, or something… Why, pray tell, would I be listening to Spotify if I was at a live gig? The translation of the digital into the real is something AI here failed to comprehend.” Still Listening said
Some people I know don’t even know what Spotify Wrapped is. I think Spotify needs to advertise it more and do way better. Spotify users have told me that they have never seen Spotify Wrapped and haven’t even seen it on social media. A lot of people said this year’s Spotify Wrapped sucked and was not as good as recent wraps this is causing people not to like the new Wrapped and they think it was boring some people even might stop using Spotify because of some things that Spotify is doing with their programs. I asked one of our peers Glorious Iam what he knows about Spotify Wrapped this is what he said.
“Hold on, what’s Spotify W
rapped? Glorious Iam said we told him what it was so this is his answer. “My most played artist was Kanye West and Playboy Carti…” Glorious Iam said
Spotify Wrapped included pop star Taylor Swift in their Wrap as the most streamed artist of the year, which is well deserved, seeing as how she has surged in popularity this year, winning all kinds of awards. With that comes streams, and lots of people are happy with this. One of our peers that we interviewed said that she likes Taylor Swift, and her most listened-to artist is Taylor Swift.
“My most streamed artist on Spotify was of course Taylor Swift because she is my favorite artist and I listen to her every day.”
Overall, people have not liked Spotify Wrapped this year, even though there were some positive reviews. This year’s Wrapped had a good company success, but people aren’t so happy. A bunch of people said that they didn’t like the AI, didn’t like the new eras, and don’t like that when their kids use their Spotify, it affects their Spotify Wrapped, but that’s not Spotify’s problem because they are still getting better profits.
“I don’t care that Spotify’s getting more profits because I don’t work there I just want a better experience!”
