Spotify Wrapped 2023 is here, and we know you have questions: How do I see my Spotify Wrapped stats? Who are the top most-streamed artists of the year? What fun Spotify Wrapped features has the platform added this year? Well, we have answers.

Wrapped is Spotify's most well-known franchise, the yearly amalgamation of data that Spotify's engineers sift through to churn out your top 100 songs, most-streamed musicians, and various projected personality ephemera based all the things you listened to this year. The resulting days after the Spotify Wrapped release date are filled with the joy of side-eying your social media friends and enemies about their habits and proclivities and, yikes, how did you listen to that much Taylor Swift this year?

As you enter this period of end-of-year reflection, Spotify Wrapped is a time to look back on all you went through this year, and the music and podcasts that soundtracked your journey through this hellscape we call life. Find out everything you need to know about how to see your Spotify Wrapped 2023 below.

How to see your 2023 Spotify Wrapped

You know the drill: the Wrapped experience is primarily in the Spotify mobile app and should auto-appear when you open it and be available on your homepage. Note that your app needs to be updated to the latest version to be able to see it.

You can also view your results via the web app version, at spotify.com/Wrapped.

What are the new features for Spotify Wrapped 2023?

Spotify has a few new tricks up its sleeves in the Wrapped experience this year to go along with the usual top artists, genres, songs, and podcasts.

First, there's Me in 2023, which gives you a character archetype based on the way you streamed in 2023. Did you make a ton of playlists? You're the Alchemist. Did you hop from one singer to the next with reckless abandon? You're the Shapeshifter. Do you listen to emotional, atmospheric music in the dark? Yep, you're the vampire. Say it, out loud.

Next, travel across the globe with Sound Town, a feature that gives you a city to align with both the artists you love and the fans who love them. My appreciation for Chappell Roan, boygenius, and Ethel Cain brought me to… Cambridge, Massachusetts.

And an updated Top 5 Artists lets you know exactly when you peaked with a certain artist — like Taylor Swift in November with the 1989 Taylor's Version vault tracks, or Chappell Roan when I saw her in concert in March. Plus, you'll be rewarded for your top listening habits with an artist thank you message that Spotify revealed might contain clues about new music releases or tour announcements. More surprises await over on the app.

What is up with those Taylor Swift Spotify easter eggs?

Spotify took a page out of Swift's book and hid clues in the Wrapped billboards and promotional materials: two dice, a snake, an eye with 1989 birds inside of it, for example. Swifties quickly clocked the hints, and the reason for them is…

Who is the top artist on Spotify in 2023?

Yes, indeed, Taylor Swift is the most-streamed artist in the world on Spotify this year. Forever the name on everyone's lips, Swift has dominated the charts with music old and new, plus that tiny tour she has going on. Spotify shared that the easter eggs led up to the announcement of Taylor Swift as top global artist, with more than 26.1 billion global streams. In a fun little feature for Swifties, when you listen to a Swift song on Spotify, the progress bar will turn the color of the song's era and begin to sparkle.

Here are the other artists who had the most streams globally in 2023:
