New Spotify Icebergify trend has everyone making ‘musical icebergs’

IF YOU’VE been wondering why everyone’s sharing iceberg photos on social media, you’re not alone – here’s what you need to know.

These images, which feature musical artists’ names over the iceberg, are generated by a website called Icebergify.

What is Icebergify?

The tool basically analyzes a person’s Spotify usage and then ranks the artists they listen to.

Located at the tip of the iceberg are a person’s favorite well-known, or ‘mainstream’ artists.

But the further down the iceberg you move, the more obscure the list gets.

How does it work?

The website works using a simple algorithm.

First, it looks holistically at a user’s most listened-to artists, streams, shares, saves, and likes.

Then it organizes that person’s musical content based on rankings and global popularity.

How can I get Icebergify?

The Icebergify tool can be accessed by visiting the tool’s official website.

Spotify users can use their account login information to sign up.

Alternative ways to sign up include signing in through Facebook, Apple, or Google.

If levels in the iceberg appear blank it signifies that the user does not listen to artists with that level of popularity.

In order to fill up more of the iceberg, users can listen to more diverse groups of musicians.
