Spotify rundown the loved and new features they’re bringing to listeners with this year’s Spotify 2021 Wrapped.

By this point, you’ve no doubt seen your social feeds flooded with Spotify Wrapped. Spotify Wrapped is the streaming service’s yearly roundup of all of your most streamed artists, genres, songs, podcasts and the total number of minutes you listened. As with previous years, Spotify have included handy ways to share your stats across social channels like Snapchat, Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, but this year, you can also share your Wrapped on TikTok.


This year’s Wrapped bring new stats for you to show off to your friends on social media:

  • 2021: The Movie – This feature pairs your top songs with classic scenes from a movie that’s all about you.
  • Your Audio Aura – We worked with an aura expert to visualize your audio aura based on your top two music moods. (You can read more about that here.)
  • Playing Cards – This is an interactive, data-based game that you play and then share with your friends. We’ll display several statements about your listening this year and you’ll have to guess which are true. 
  • 2021 Wrapped Blend – Tapping into the new Blend feature launched this year, Spotify fans can see how their 2021 music tastes match up with friends, stream their blended playlist, and share their results on social.
