Almost 6 Million Streams: My Spotify Wrapped 2025 – A Personal Reflection

Every year, Spotify Wrapped feels a bit like opening a time capsule. It’s a moment to breathe, look back, and understand what the music I’ve released has meant to people out there in the world. But this year… it hit differently.

Seeing almost 6 million streams in 2025 is something I’m still trying to wrap my head around. Numbers like these were once just dreams — distant, hopeful, maybe even unrealistic. And yet, here we are. And it’s all because of you.

Whether you pressed play once or many times… whether a song kept you company for a few minutes, helped you fall asleep, supported your focus, or gave you peace at the end of a long day — thank you. These small listening moments add up to something incredibly meaningful for me.

A Year of Growth — and Gratitude

This year brought a 48% increase in listeners and 34% more streams. Those percentages aren’t just statistics to me. They’re reminders that my music found new ears, new hearts, new spaces. That’s an incredible feeling.

I’m deeply grateful for every playlist addition, every share, every follow, every message. You make it possible for my music to continue existing, growing, reaching further.

But Also… A Moment of Honesty

Alongside the excitement, I feel something else — something I believe many artists are going through right now.

The industry is changing faster than ever. AI-generated tracks can appear in seconds. Thousands of new songs are uploaded daily, many created not by musicians but by algorithms or ghost producers working behind the scenes for cheap streaming content.

In this ocean of content, the voices of real artists — people who spent years or decades learning instruments, studying production, writing, crafting sound, investing in equipment, pouring their hearts into what they create — are becoming harder to hear.

And yet, I believe now more than ever that real music, created by real humans, matters.

If You Love an Artist, Support Them

If you want to see artists on stage in the future… If you want to feel the emotion behind a performance… If you want music that comes from a real human experience…

Then please support the artists you love.

Listen to their music on their profiles. Follow them. Share their songs. Buy a CD or vinyl. Leave a comment. These tiny actions make a bigger difference than you might think.

Music and art are deeply human. They always have been — and they always should be.

Thank You for Being Part of My 2025
