Apple has rolled out Apple Music Replay 2025, its yearly look back at your listening habits, and this year’s version feels more personal than ever. Replay has always given you your top songs, artists, and albums, but Apple has widened the scope. Instead of just a summary, you’re getting a profile of how you listen and what your music choices say about you.
This year, the company added three fresh categories that focus on behaviour, not just rankings. Discovery shows the new artists you found this year and gives you a small badge of pride if you were early on breakout stars. Loyalty highlights the artists you keep returning to. Comeback marks the acts you drifted away from and then suddenly played again.
Replay 2025 also now reveals your total minutes streamed, how many artists you listened to, your longest streak with a single artist, your favourite genres, and other details that confirm every suspicion you had about looping one song way too many times. You can access everything directly from the Home tab in Apple Music.
At the same time, you can look back at your monthly highlights, revisit summaries from previous years, and check your Replay All Time playlist which tracks the songs you’ve played the most since the moment you joined Apple Music. Apple seems to be leaning into long-term identity instead of just the December moment.
For artists, Replay 2025 expands the data you’ll receive, like being able to see year-over-year growth, where their listeners are located, and how their reach evolves. It’s a bigger push toward helping artists understand the movement of their audience, not just the raw streams.
Meanwhile, Apple has shared the biggest global songs on the platform this year. APT by ROSÉ and Bruno Mars, luther by Kendrick Lamar and SZA, Die With A Smile by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars, Kendrick Lamar’s Not Like Us, and Billie Eilish’s Birds of a Feather all sit at the top. It’s a list that reflects the mix of pop, cultural moments, and breakout records that shaped 2025.
Replay’s timing is deliberate. It arrived one week after YouTube released its Recap and on the same day Amazon Music dropped its own version. With Spotify Wrapped expected this week, every streaming service is trying to secure a moment on social media before timelines inevitably become Wrapped-focused for days.
The takeaway
Apple Music Replay 2025 is the company’s most ambitious recap yet. It feels more layered and more personal, giving listeners a deeper view of their habits and giving artists more context for their growth. This year’s version stands on its own instead of feeling like a copy of Spotify’s approach. And by dropping early, Apple ensures it gets its moment before the annual Wrapped wave hits.
Spotify Wrapped 2025 will likely roll out this Wednesday
Spotify is expected to release Wrapped this week, setting off the yearly flood of music stats, surprises, and global streaming debates.
