In this episode, we go deep into the year’s top music trends and genres, as well as the songs, artists, and podcasters that defined the year. We talk just how the Wrapped team dreamt up this year’s new features, surprises, and joyful moments. Then we’ll savor one of those new innovations by sharing a spicy genre sandwich of Punjabi and Mexican music. NBC News Now anchor Savannah Sellers joins us to celebrate the unstoppable success of this year’s top artist, superstar Taylor Swift. And importantly, Spotify fans discuss their predictions and highlights on this, the most wonderful time of the year, Spotify Wrapped season. Plus, so much more!

Spotify CEO Daniel Ek and CFO Paul Vogel analyze a quarter during which Spotify returned to profitability and remained on target towards 600M users by the end of the year. We also celebrate the tenth anniversary of Spotify’s launch in Spanish-speaking markets in Latin America with the region’s general manager, Mia Nygren.

Why separate work and play? We believe art can have both. Every day, we infuse energy, creativity, and delight into our products, experiences, and culture, engaging listeners in a world of sound that they can’t help but love. See how it all falls into place in our latest edition of Liner Notes.
