Spotify has announced the next curator for its Local Spot playlist series, which highlights notable Canadians and the music that fuels their creativity. This month, in celebration of Women’s History Month, the playlist is curated by Rupi Kaur, the global literary icon whose raw, powerful poetry has redefined modern storytelling.
For Local Spot, Kaur shares “the songs that raised and healed me”, featuring a selection of Canadian artists who have shaped her creative journey and continue to inspire her work. She describes music as an essential part of her writing process, setting the tone for her words and transporting her through memories of the past and hopes for the future. Curating this playlist allowed her to revisit cherished tracks from the last 15 years, making the experience both nostalgic and uplifting.
