These “slow + reverb” remixes are almost unbearably poignant, with a few simple tweaks that can transport even upbeat originals to a nether realm of romantic ennui and isolation. Some popular entries hint at stranger depths: Podcasts appear in the ranking periodically with titles presenting some variation on “ slow + reverb,” offering syrupy and spectral bootleg reworks of songs by the 1975, Ariana Grande, Cuco, and more, like DJ Screw tapes for Gen Z pop fanatics. Within a few weeks of its January 10 upload, it became popular enough to compete for space with “Dolly Parton’s America” and “All Songs Considered.”īut other songs, like the aforementioned Alec Benjamin and MARINA demos, bear no obvious relationship to TikTok, and likely serve young and extremely online fanbases that don’t feel like tabbing over to YouTube to hear unofficial tracks by their favorite artists. A year and a half later, someone evidently felt the desire to make up for this absence, so they uploaded “In My Feelings (Spanish Version)” to Spotify themselves under the guise of a podcast. The musician uploaded “In My Feelings (Spanish Version)” to YouTube in July 2018, just days after Drake’s original came out, but for whatever reason-issues around rights and royalties seem a strong likelihood-it is not available as a proper “song” on Juhn’s Spotify artist page. In the second row, there was “Juhn - In My Feelings (Spanish Version),” a “podcast” with only a single three-minute “episode,” which was actually just a cover of Drake’s “In My Feelings” by the Latin trap and reggaeton artist Juhn. ![]() Last week, the top five slots were filled by two familiar NPR shows, a hip-hop talk show hosted by perennial shit-starter Joe Budden, a glossy true-crime-style look at the rise and fall of Tekashi 6ix9ine, and a podcast offering song-by-song breakdowns of various popular albums. Browse Spotify’s section for featured music podcasts, and at first you’ll find what you’d probably expect. ![]()
