At this point, the only excuse someone can have about not having seen their Spotify Wrapped is if they’ve been living under a rock. The yearly ‘personality reveal’ through music has taken over everyone’s social media. Along with this, they have also unveiled the top artists and songs on the streaming platform.

Wrapped has already revealed how 456 million Spotify users listened to the audio in their own, unique way this year. If you have been living under a rock, here’s a link on how you can also access your own, 2022 Wrapped experience on your updated Spotify app on your Apple or Android device.

A fun, new feature is how Spotify has truly leveraged on how music can reveal one’s personality. Through improved, data-driven stories and editorially-curated playlists, users get to share more about themselves. This, by uploading their ready-made Wrapped results on Instagram. Your Listening Personality is another new feature. It tells you about the music you listen to and what that says about your music taste. Move over, MBTI. Listeners can now learn which of 16 different Spotify-created Listening Personality types they are, based on their 2022 listening trends.

Audio Day, meanwhile, is an interactive story giving you a peek into how your music taste evolves throughout the day. From sunrise ’til your bedtime, it gives you a look at how you seize the day and embrace the evenings.

Spotify top of the charts

Outranking global hits, NOBITA’s Ikaw Lang is the most streamed track in the Philippines. This is followed by  Arthur Nery’s Pagsamo (#2), Adie’s Paraluman (#3), Zack Tabudlo’s Pano (#4) and Arthur Nery’s Isa lang (#5). OPM took center stage this year, with Filipino love songs beating international favorites like Troye Sivan’s Angel Baby (#6) and Justin Bieber’s Ghost (#11).

At a recent event hosted by Spotify Philippines to celebrate the return of Wrapped, they had Arthur Nery perform a couple of his hits. Nery mentioned how Spotify was truly instrumental in his success as an artist.

Five Filipino artists and groups clinched half of the top 10 spots this year. Zack Tabudlo, who secured the #3 spot, emerged as this year’s Top Local Artist. His album entitled Episode is the second most streamed album in the country. To no one’s surprise, Ben&Ben is still a mainstay among local favorites, maintaining a spot in the top 10 for their fourth consecutive year.

Again, to no one’s surprise, Taylor Swift  is the overall top artist in the Philippines followed by BTS, Zack Tabudlo, Ben&Ben, and Justin Bieber.

Filipinos really got into podcasts in the last few years with 2022 showing only increased interest in the medium. Spotify has continued to launch exclusive and original content featuring Filipino podcasting talent. This further proves that there are a lot of Filipino creators with potential.

Intimate sharing of life stories and advice are a hit among Filipinos with Barangay Love Stories, Spotify Exclusive skypodcast, Dear MOR: The Podcast, and Spotify Original Hugot Marcelo taking up the top four spots. Comedic conversations also resonate withlocals as Spotify Exclusive Punchline with Alex Calleja took the fifth spot.

To continue the celebration around Wrapped, Spotify is also bringing Wrapped Playground to the Philippines. From the December 10-11, Spotify is transforming SM Mall of Asia’s Music Hall. Guests can enjoy fun activities and catch Filipino music acts like BINI and BGYO. The event runs from 11am-10pm on both days. BINI will perform on December 10 at 6pm while BGYO will have theirs at 1pm, the following day.
