When we said goodbye to 2022 and welcomed 2023, I promised myself that I would put a little more effort into broadening my music tastes on Spotify. To say I achieved this is an understatement and, not to blow my own trumpet, I smashed it.
My mission was twofold: listen to as many new artists as possible, and listen to new albums weekly. I ended my year in music with a total of 71 genres, 1,633 artists, and 48,650 minutes listened on my Spotify Wrapped 2023, in addition to being ranked in the top 0.01% of Beyonce fans – a fact I’d like to be recorded on my headstone.
