This year marks the arrival of the much-anticipated Apple Music Replay 2024, going live on December 3. It's Apple’s way of replaying your musical highlights from the year, akin to the popular Spotify Wrapped. But there's more to it than just visibility on your top tracks and artists. Apple has taken the opportunity to showcase not just personal insights but also global trends based on streaming data.
For those new to the Apple Music ecosystem, Apple Music Replay serves as your personalized year-end recap, spotlighting your most-loved songs, albums, artists, and genres. This feature mirrors the Spotify Wrapped experience, enabling users to reflect on their listening habits over the past year.
So how do you access this feature? Well, obtaining your Replay 2024 is quite simple. If you're using iOS 18.1 or later on your iPhone, you can check your Replay directly within the Apple Music app. Just look for it under the Home, New, and Search tabs. If your device runs on earlier versions, don’t worry; you can still access your personalized lists by visiting replay.music.apple.com on either your mobile device or desktop. There, you’ll not only discover your top artists and songs but also get a comprehensive list detailing your music evolution throughout 2024.
Apple Music Replay 2024 includes various new features and insights aimed at enriching the overall listening experience. Among the added perks are Listening Streaks, which chronicle your longest consecutive days of using Apple Music, and the Top Artist Streak, which lets you know if you've had any artist as your number one for multiple months. It also shows the exact date when you first listened to your top artist, song, or album this year.
Globally, the most streamed artist of 2024 is Kendrick Lamar, who made waves earlier this year with his collaboration with Drake, often referred to as the ‘rap civil war.’ His track "Not Like Us" has dominated the charts, becoming the most-played track on the platform. Other notable mentions include Benson Boone's "Beautiful Things," Sabrina Carpenter’s "Espresso," and Taylor Swift's hit "Cruel Summer." This year, Billie Eilish was crowned Apple Music’s Artist of the Year, showcasing the platform's capability to highlight rising and established talents alike.
Delving even more deeply, Apple Music Replay not only reveals your top songs but also includes insights about the most-read lyrics of the year, compelling listeners to engage not just with music or artist personas but with their emotional expressions.
This feature is localized for users across 169 countries and available in 39 different languages, making it accessible to a broad audience worldwide. This attention to detail signifies Apple's dedication to creating features catered to various cultures and preferences.
To sum up, whether you're curious about which tracks dominated your playlists, or eager to compare your musical tastes with global trends, Replay 2024 has something special on offer. Take advantage of this feature not only to enjoy the year’s musical wrap-up but also to share insights with friends across social media or messaging platforms.
Get ready to reminisce about your 2024 music choices and perhaps discover some surprises along the way. With Apple Music encouraging its users to explore their musical tendencies, it seems there's no limit to how our listening experiences can evolve.
