With COVID-19 ravaging the world outside, nothing offers more of an escapade than indulging in our favourite content. For many, the go-to is music, which opens up countless possibilities from local music, K-pop, EDM, Pop, Rock, and more.
Spotify Wrapped unveils the Top K-pop artists of 2020 - BTS, BLACKPINK, TWICE, Stray Kids, and more
Malaysians, for one, have been spending much time with their top songs and artists, as revealed by JOOX in a press release today (23/12). More specifically, JOOX users in Malaysia listen to an average of 20 songs each day – with the total amounting to watching an entire superhero film series 1.2 million times.

Fridays and Saturdays saw more active sessions than other days of the week, while 5PM remains the peak hour for people to listen to music, perhaps giving music lovers a much-needed reprieve after a hard day at work.
Others, on the other hand, channeled their emotions into singing, spurring JOOX’s newest QuickSing feature into use. ‘Peluang Kedua’ by Nabila Razali emerges as the most-sung song, with ‘Sakit’ by Zynakal ft. YonnyBoii, ‘Cinta Sejati’ by Bunga Citra Lestari, and more not far behind in the list.
