YouTube Music Recap 2024: As the year draws to a close, YouTube has unveiled its 2024 Music and Gaming Recap, offering users a personalised look back at their streaming habits. This feature provides insights into top music choices and gaming preferences, cementing YouTube’s role in wrapping up the year for its audience.

With services like Spotify Wrapped setting the trend for year-end summaries since 2016, YouTube now takes centre stage ahead of Spotify’s annual reveal. Spotify Wrapped traditionally arrives in late November or early December, often on a Wednesday, leaving YouTube’s recap to shine earlier in the season.

How to Access Your YouTube 2024 Music Recap

Getting your music summary is straightforward. Open the YouTube app on your mobile device, tap the compass icon at the top, and select “Music” from the left-hand menu. This will lead to your saved music section, where the “Get Your Recap” option awaits.

Your recap highlights the top five artists and songs you listened to this year, alongside stats like total listening minutes, favourite podcasts, and top albums. It also categorises your music vibe with descriptors like "electronic," "high-key," or even "brat," inspired by Charli XCX’s album.

Exploring Your 2024 Gaming Recap

For gaming enthusiasts, the process is just as simple. Open the YouTube app, tap the compass icon, and choose “Gaming” from the menu. There, you’ll find the option to view your personalised gaming recap.

The gaming roundup reveals stats such as total hours spent watching gaming content, the number of gaming videos and creators viewed, and your top five online games. Additionally, it spotlights your favourite gaming video creators of the year.

Whether you’re into music, gaming, or both, YouTube’s 2024 Recap offers a fun, detailed summary of your year on the platform.
