This year’s Spotify Wrapped—the music app’s annual recap of your listening habits—includes for the first time a tally of how many attack drones your streams funded.
“Since CEO Daniel Ek is a major booster of Helsing weapons systems, we just thought it would be fun for users to see what their streams pay for (since we all know it’s not the artists),” explained Spotify director of marketing Alma Bergman. “So now you can see if you were the #1 fan of ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ or the key figure in The Death of a Russian Conscript.”
That’s not the only new feature in this year’s Wrapped.
“Look forward to seeing how many ICE agents our ads recruited while you listened,” said Bergman. “Users will also find out how many side-gigs their favorite artists took to make ends meet, the number of AI songs they were tricked into enduring, the ratio of real to fake information learned from our podcasts, and which of your top rappers is most ascendant in the Trump administration. Isn’t it neat that you’re not sure which one I’m referring to?”
Next year, Spotify plans to combine their loves of music and evil by investing heavily in Kenny G.
