End Of Summer 2025

As we near the end of August, Spotify users Kevin and Jenny Kopff’s playlist is perfect for looking back on the summer of 2025. The playlist includes some of the biggest songs of the summer, like Sabrina Carpenter’s “Manchild,” off her upcoming album Man’s Best Friend, and Alex Warren’s #1 single “Ordinary.”

Warren’s debut single spent nine non-consecutive weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 charts. The playlist also includes viral hits like Chappell Roan’s “The Subway” and underrated summer songs like Maneskin member Damiano David’s “Voices.” The playlist also has some throwbacks like “Thumbs,” a track from Carpenter’s second studio album, and “Nancy Mulligan” from Ed Sheeran’s Divide (Deluxe.)

These song choices go to show that summer doesn’t have to be defined by new releases. Even older releases can resonate throughout the warm season. Especially Carpenter and Sheeran, since both artists have albums coming out at the end of the summer,

iI’s great to look back on their earlier work and see how much they’ve both grown as artists. While the end of the summer is typically bittersweet, this playlist brings up the vibes, reminding listeners of all the memories made in the last few months.

And, Baby That’s Show Business For You

After Taylor Swift revealed the title of her twelfth studio album, The Life Of A Showgirl, she released a playlist of songs to get fans excited. Swift deliberately chose songs that she co-wrote with Max Martin and Shellback as an easter egg.

When she revealed the album’s tracklist on the New Heights podcast, she confessed that the producers were the only collaborators she worked with this time around. The playlist contains every song the trio created together from Swift’s fourth studio album, Red, to her sixth album, reputation.

Since The Life Of A Showgirl won’t be released until October 3rd, this playlist will hold fans over until they get to hear Swift’s new work. While the “All Too Well” singer never repeats the same album twice, the past songs still represent what Swift has been able to accomplish with the producers.

The Tortured Poets Department was a lengthy and less contained album. However, Martin and Shellback are great at helping Swift shape her songs, making for sleek pop anthems.

Martin has also been the master of pop since conquering the genre in the ’90s, meaning Swift’s confession that her new songs will be infectious is accurate. While it may be a sharp turn from TTPD, Swift’s playlist will help fans ease back into Martin and Shellback’s style.

Jonas Brothers Setlist

On top of the many pop culture moments currently taking the world by storm, the Jonas Brothers kicked off their 20th anniversary tour on August 10th. To commemorate the show, Ticketmaster created a playlist for the tour’s setlist. Fans who didn’t get a chance to snag tickets can use the playlist to imagine they’re at the show.

Or, fans who did get the opportunity to see the brothers can relisten to the setlist, transporting them back to the concert. The setlist includes iconic hits from the Jonas Brothers’ careers like “Lovebug,” “S.O.S.,” “Year 3000,” and the show’s finale, “When You Look Me In The Eyes.”

The playlist also made sure to include newer hits like “Love Me To Heaven,” “Sucker,” and “Waffle House.” The Jonas Brothers have been going viral on social media thanks to the many special guests they’ve brought out on stage.

On opening night, they surprised their MetLife Stadium audience with Demi Lovato to perform Camp Rock‘s “This Is Me,” and Camp Rock 2‘s “Wouldn’t Change A Thing.” The former Disney Channel actor also welcomed Jesse McCartney, Click Five, Hanson, and Hoobastank to join them during the tour.

The band has done an excellent job hyping up their crowds with nostalgia, and the Spotify playlist does the same. The band’s youth is noticeable on tracks like “Please Be Mine” off their debut album, It’s About Time. For anyone who wants more of the Jonas Brothers, whether they made it to the concert or not, Ticketmaster’s Greetings From Your Hometown playlist is perfect.

KPop Demon Hunters

One of the most talked-about movies on Netflix since its late June release has been KPop Demon Hunters. The film’s song “Golden” hit number one on the UK charts, stealing the throne from Chappell Roan. The group is also currently dominating the iTunes charts, with five songs in the top ten.

“Golden” is currently at number two, surpassing Warren’s “Ordinary.” The group has two more songs in the top twenty, pushing Morgan Wallen, a breakout star of 2025, further down the chart. The film’s plot is centered on the animated K-pop group Huntr/x.

The members of the group are also secretly demon hunters, protecting humanity from another attack. It’s not just the plot that’s exciting, but the electric soundtrack that draws fans in. K-pop has been a massive success internationally since the late 2010s, when groups like BTS and Blackpink took over the music industry.

Many others have followed suit, but the animated group Huntr/x is getting its chance to shine now. The playlist, created by user MiniShoto, includes all of the animated group’s songs as well as some other music included in the Netflix film.

As the bio reveals, the playlist is in order of when the songs play in KPop Demon Hunters. It’s a perfect playlist for anyone who fell in love with the film or who wants to further their understanding of the K-pop genre.

This Is Cardi B

Cardi B announced her second studio album, Am I The Drama? in June, seven years after her debut release. So far, the rapper has released new singles “Imaginary Playerz” and “Outside” off the album. The latter debuted in the top 10 on Billboard’s Hot 100.

The other two announced tracks, “Up” and “WAP,” were released as singles years earlier. Spotify’s playlist This Is Cardi B is a celebration of all the music she’s released throughout the years leading up to her new album. While Cardi B may only be on her second album, she’s released countless singles in the last seven years.

Aside from the two that are on her tracklist, the rapper released songs like “Money,” “Finesse” with Bruno Mars, and “Taki Taki” with Selena Gomez, DJ Snake, and Ozuna. Both “Up” and “WAP” hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100, as did her collaboration with Maroon 5, “Girls Like You.”

It may have taken her a while to release another album, but the Spotify playlist proves that she has maintained success without needing one. In anticipation of Am I The Drama?, the Spotify playlist highlights Cardi B’s contributions to the music industry since her 2017 debut, hyping fans up for her September release.
