It’s a bit early, but YouTube Music is ready to recap.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Spotify might have pioneered the yearly streaming recap, but these days, every other service has its own version of “Wrapped.” If you’re a YouTube Music subscriber, for instance, not only do you have the option to check out a year-end summary of your listening habits, those stats are rolling out to select users now.<\/p>\n

While you might think December would be a better time to start recapping the past year of music activity, YouTube wants some of us to go back in time right now. It’s not that weird for YouTube in particular, since its music streaming service offers seasonal recaps throughout the year. However, as Mashable highlights<\/a>, the feature isn’t rolling out for all users yet, so don’t be bummed if you have to wait a bit longer for your summary. <\/p>\n

If it is working on your end, here’s what you can expect<\/a>. You’ll see the standard stats, such as your top tracks, artists, and podcasts, complete with listening time for each. But you’ll also see some more abstract results, as well. YouTube Music will let you know what your “listening vibes” were this year, including genres like “Electronic,” to moods like “Hyped” or “Pumped up.” You’ll also see your “music character,” which breaks down the “personality” of the types of music you listened to this year, as well as your “musical moods,” which can include anything from “Dramatic” to “Dancey.”<\/p>\n

How to access your YouTube Music recap<\/h2>\n

As the feature is actively rolling out, you may open your YouTube Music app on your iPhone or Android and see a “2024 Recap is here” alert, above the new “Speed Dial” section. If you don’t see the alert, you can try looking for your recap yourself: Tap your profile, then choose Your Recap<\/strong>. From here, you can tap Get your Recap<\/strong> to, well, get your recap. You can also try heading directly to yt.be\/music\/recap<\/a> to see if that will force YouTube Music to show you your recap.<\/p>\n
