This week on Educate Your Earbuds, we’re diving into Spotify Wrapped 2025 — the annual music event that feels like the Super Bowl for playlist people and the Hunger Games for anyone afraid of their top artist reveal.

I’m breaking down how Spotify actually collects all that juicy user data (aka how they know you played that one song 147 times at 2 AM). Then we’ll get into the new Wrapped features everyone’s posting on Instagram, what Spotify randomly ditched from last year, and which classics made a surprise comeback.

Of course, we can’t talk Wrapped without covering the global streaming charts — and yes, Bad Bunny reclaimed the crown from Taylor Swift in a big way. We’ll talk top artists, top songs, top albums, and what the rankings say about where music is heading in 2025.

And finally… we’re unpacking my own Wrapped. The good, the bad, and the extremely embarrassing.
