We gathered 50 samples of students’ annual Spotify Wrapped features, which summarize users’ favorite genres, artists, and songs in quantitative and qualitative statistics. We then compiled these data sets to create Webb Wrapped. Let’s dive in!

This year, Leo Levitin-Shilman (‘23) is a new face on the Webb Canyon Chronicle team as a staff writer. As a writing enthusiast, it’s no surprise his favorite class was Fundamentals of Composition with Mr. Hansen, which enhanced his writing style. When Leo is not preparing to write a 20-page essay or bragging about being able to name every country in under five minutes, he is most likely hanging out with his friends or getting victory royales in Fortnite. He also loves to watch sitcoms like Seinfeld and play video games with his friends, as they bring out the best of his inner child. Leo is an avid helper in his community, taking on leadership roles as a camp counselor, peer advisor, and admission ambassador all within the last year. As his new role as a staff writer kicks off, Leo would like to contribute to the depth of the Webb Canyon Chronicle by either voicing students’ opinions or creating media content. Leo hopes his work expands people’s outlook on a variety of subjects, bringing the community closer in any way he can. Favorite song: "Preoccupied (Demo)" by Mac DeMarco
