The dating app is partnering with Spotify for Tinder profile “Anthems”


Time to remove “So, what kind of music do you listen to?” from your small talk repertoire! Tinder and Spotify just announced that they’re teaming up to let you add your musical taste to your dating profile.

 

Tinder will now let you choose any song from Spotify to display as your “anthem,” a kind of personal theme song, which potential dates can listen to without leaving the app.

 

 

Spotify partnered with Bumble to introduce basically this exact same feature back in June but the Tinder version has some slight variations.

You can also opt to have Tinder display your top artists on Spotify, if you want to give people a fuller picture of what you like to listen to.

But don’t worry, you can hide your guilty pleasure songs you’re embarrassed to admit you love. Looking at you, Miley Cyrus Party in the USA.

This just seems to make sense for a “dating app” that has helped condition us into judging people on whether or not they’re dating material based on looks and MAYBE how witty their profile bio is, if you make it that far. Adding one more facet will make it even easier to swipe left on complete strangers, thanks Tinder!

Because we all know, stereotypes save time.

 

Let’s go through some of those easy judgements, shall we?

 

A girl who puts any sort of Adele as her Anthem? Clearly, she’s still dealing with a very rough break up and is looking for a rebound, she also might cry after you “hook up” or even during depending on which album her Adele anthem came from.

 

A Taylor Swift anthem is for the girl who falls fast and HARD. Be prepared for her to drop the “L” bomb by the third date.

 

A guy with a Drake song as his anthem is just looking to slide into your DMs, and probably won’t call you back after your date even though he said he “had a really great time and we should totally do this again!”

 

Bro chooses a metal-core song or anything with a lot of screaming for his personal anthem? He plays a lot of video games and has a permanent layer of Doritos dust on his fingers while he’s swiping through Tinder. And 90% of his photos on his profile are either of the back of his head or are so overly pixelated that you’re not entirely sure what he looks like.

 

Immediately swipe left on the guy that picks any Pitbull song as his anthem. Unless you like going to the clinic.
