Jewel Ham created Spotify Wrapped as her internship project for the company in 2019. Not only did they not hire her, they took the idea and ran with it. It is now the biggest cultural moment that Spotify has every year.

Good morning, yawnin', dawn is now gone and
New day, toothpaste brushin' my screwface
Follow the light, it's just a great feelin'

Can't you tell I'm much happy nowadays
No more child play, livin' life the foul way .
