Apple Music has launched new playlists and curated content for the ‘Best of 2026,’ and also unveiled its new Artist of the Year.
Apple Music’s ‘New’ tab will have ‘Best of 2026’ versions of popular playlists. For me because of my music tastes I see playlists including: Rap Life, J-Pop, A-List Pop, Viral Hits and more.
Apple Music has also named Olivia Dean its Artist of the Year for 2026. Dean is the first UK artist to receive Best Artist on Apple Music. She will receive a physical award featuring Apple’s custom silicon wafer suspended between a polished sheet of glass, and a machine and anodize aluminum body.
The music streaming platform has also made a special selection of playlists dedicated to the songs and voices from the last 12 months.
Last year’s Apple Music Artist of the Year was Tyler the Creator. There hasn’t been a Canadian winner since The Weeknd back in 2021.
