Spotify Wrapped 2024: Discover Your Stats and the New Creator Wrapped.

Seeing a year-end music summary has become a very rewarding experience for many listeners. Recently, various streaming platforms have begun offering this feature. Apple Music has introduced its "Apple Music Replay 2024," while Amazon has launched "Amazon Music Delivered 2024." However, Spotify continues to lead in this area with its popular "Spotify Wrapped 2024," which was originally introduced in 2015 as "Year in Music" and renamed in 2016.

This year, Spotify has innovated by including an AI-generated podcast in its offering. Users can access the usual information about their favorite songs in Instagram-style card format, but now they can also listen to a summary through the new "Your Wrapped AI Podcast," developed in collaboration with Google’s NotebookLM. This isn’t Spotify’s first foray into the use of AI; last year, it tested a feature capable of translating podcasts using cloned voices and also launched a virtual DJ.

For those who prefer to receive their annual summary in audio format, this feature presents an appealing option. In addition to the AI podcast and story cards, Spotify has introduced "Your Podcaster Clips," where podcast fans can listen to thank-you messages from their favorite podcasters. They have also implemented a hub with statistics and summaries of podcasts called "2024 in Podcasts."

The platform also seeks to engage creators, artists, and authors by offering personalized stories through "Wrapped for Artists," "Wrapped for Creators," and the new "Wrapped for Authors." These tools will allow creators to better understand how their fans interact with their content, including personality rankings and listening preferences.

Accessing the statistics for "Spotify Wrapped 2024" is a straightforward process. Upon opening the app on Android or Apple devices, users will be greeted with a screen dedicated to this feature, from which they can view their cards or listen to their AI podcast. The experience is available only on the mobile app.

As for this year's standout results, the most listened-to artists globally include Taylor Swift, The Weeknd, and Billie Eilish. Among the most played albums is Taylor Swift's "THE DEPARTMENT OF TORTURED POETS: THE ANTHOLOGY." In the song category, Sabrina Carpenter's "Espresso" tops the global charts.

Regarding podcasts, "The Joe Rogan Experience" remains one of the most listened-to programs worldwide. In the realm of audiobooks, titles like "A Court of Thorns and Roses" by Sarah J. Maas have stood out on the lists of the most popular.
