My Deezer Year 2025: The music that defined the year and a retrospective of your own musical love story
Paris, December 1, 2025 – Deezer, the global music experience platform, is back with My Deezer Year, presenting the most streamed music of 2025. As usual, My Deezer Year includes a personal experience for each user, with a retrospective of the artists, albums and songs that defined the year for them. In the 2025 edition, Deezer users will star in their very own romantic comedy, with classic scenes like a meet cute and a happily ever after, as they explore their listening habits.
On average, Deezer users listened to 122.8 hours of music globally, with more than 691 songs from 402 artists, and discovered 357 new songs. Almost 12% of all Deezer subscribers are a superfan of one or more artists.
Azzedine Fall, Director of Music & Culture, Deezer said: “In 2025 we’ve seen many artists experimenting and crossing boundaries between genres in new ways. Rosalía, Bad Bunny, Oklou, and Tyler the Creator all have pushed us into new emotional territories by blending styles that once seemed incompatible with mainstream success. These projects sparked discussion, challenged our expectations, and continued to expand the definition of pop music. Globally, women dominated the charts on Deezer, with Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish in the top three for 2025. They all have delivered creative new projects that resonated with worldwide audiences.”

Azzedine Fall continues: “It’s almost impossible to talk about music in 2025 without mentioning AI. Artificial intelligence has had an enormous impact on the conversations about the future of the music industry and artistry this year, and despite very low streaming numbers some AI-tracks have received some mainstream attention. While we are not against AI at Deezer, human creativity remains essential, and so does human curation. On Deezer, albums with fully AI-generated music are tagged, and these tracks removed from the recommendations algorithm and our editorial playlists. We do this to remain transparent to our users, support artists and ensure our curation reflects real artistic intention.”

Azzedine Fall concludes by looking forward to 2026: ““Next year we’re looking at three major trends for music consumption. Firstly, contextual listening will grow, with music being chosen to match exact moments and moods. Secondly, we’re expecting to see a continued increase of long-form projects with clear artistic vision and storytelling, told through albums and longer tracks, as well as intimate live sessions. Live events is a sector in which we will continue to expand, to support strong artistic choices both inside and outside the app. Finally, we expect the relevance of back catalog music to continue increasing, with classics resurfacing in new contexts and being enjoyed by newer and younger audiences.”
