‘Tis the Season for Spotify Wrapped: A Guide to the New Album-Inspired Logos
Spotify Wrapped: A Time for Reflection
‘Tis the season for Spotify Wrapped, that special time of year when I reflect on how I’ve only listened to one album for the entirety of 2024. To mark the occasion, the streaming service has released a series of cryptic new logos inspired by some of this year’s top artists, and not to brag, I’m fairly certain I’ve decoded them all.
Diverse Album Art
While Spotify already has one of the best logos, these album-inspired design remixes show just how diverse album art can be. From serpent symbolism to cowboy couture, these crafty new logos are the perfect way to test your design knowledge and celebrate another year of musical excellence.
Decoding the Logos
The logos were revealed in a slick social post teasing the upcoming Spotify Wrapped. If you’re a pop girl like myself, you’ll likely recognize the first two logos as a reference to our reigning queens Sabrina Carpenter and Chapell Roan. These are closely followed by a Cowboy Carter-inspired design for the Beyonce fans and the unmistakable green hue of Charli XCX’s BRAT album (which ironically just looks like a low-res version of the OG Spotify logo).
Next, we have a reference to Don Tolviver’s ‘Hardstone Psycho’ followed by the minimalist design of Taylor Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department’. The snake design references Megan Thee Stallion’s new serpent-inspired era, while the final two are nods to Billie Eilish’s ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft’ and Olivia Rodrigo’s 2023 release, ‘Guts’. (I’m 99.9% confident I’m correct, but until Spotify Wrapped finally drops, these are mere humble predictions.)
The Logos
Conclusion
In conclusion, Spotify’s album-inspired logos are a great way to test your design knowledge and celebrate another year of musical excellence. While the logos may be cryptic, they’re a fun way to engage with the music industry and appreciate the diversity of album art.
