The annual Spotify Wrapped feature for 2025 has been released, and Nigerian music enthusiasts have enthusiastically joined the global trend of sharing their yearly listening habits on social media. The data, which compiles a user's most-played songs and artists, has unveiled some unexpected musical combinations this year.
Unusual Blends Spark Online Buzz
While many users displayed consistent loyalty to their favourite genres, a significant number of Nigerian Spotify listeners had lists that featured a striking mix of spiritually inspired gospel music and popular secular tracks. This fusion created a notable conversation online, particularly within Christian circles and among music fans.
Shared screenshots from Spotify Wrapped 2025 frequently showed names like gospel powerhouses Dunsin Oyekan, Nathaniel Bassey, and Moses Bliss appearing alongside chart-topping secular artists such as Odumodu Blvck and Olamide. This eclectic taste did not go unnoticed.
Dunsin Oyekan's Puzzled Reaction
The curious mixture captured the attention of renowned gospel minister Dunsin Oyekan. Taking to his social media, Oyekan expressed his surprise with a simple yet telling tweet on December 4, 2025. He posted an eye emoji alongside the caption, "Spotify wrap These mixtures.....", clearly indicating his shock at the blended listening habits of his audience.
Spotify Wrapped provides users with a personalised summary of their annual activity on the platform. It highlights the top five artists, top five songs, and the total minutes spent streaming, offering a detailed snapshot of yearly audio consumption.

Netizens React to the Musical Fusion
Oyekan's tweet ignited further discussion, with many users humorously defending or explaining their diverse playlists. The online reactions highlighted the everyday reality of many Nigerians who enjoy a wide spectrum of music.
One user, marhreeyah, joked about their list being "spoilt" by the appearance of Davido, while plato_15 wondered, "How did Nathaniel Bassey and OdumoduBlvck end up in the same Spotify Wrapped?"
Other comments reflected on the duality of their daily routines. User jursh_digitals quipped, "Morning: is your name in the book of life......Evening: If you like gym..", and oginniemmanuell commented, "The mixtures are like we listen we don't judge."
The conversation also referenced a past incident involving Dunsin Oyekan, where a video of a man rushing onto the stage during his live performance raised discussions about security for gospel artists during public ministrations.
The release of Spotify Wrapped 2025 continues to serve as a cultural moment, not just revealing musical tastes but also sparking broader conversations about identity, faith, and entertainment in Nigeria's dynamic social landscape.
