Instagram Adds Profile Songs: A Modern Twist on MySpace Vibes

Remember the days of MySpace when your profile song defined your online persona? Well, Instagram is bringing back that nostalgic feature with a modern twist – now you can showcase your favorite song on your IG profile.

Music has always been a powerful form of self-expression, and your choice of song says a lot about you. Instagram’s new feature allows you to add a song to your profile, giving you a unique way to share your current music taste with your followers.

According to Instagram, “We’re excited to announce that you can now add a song to your profile, giving you more ways to express yourself through music. Your profile song selection will live on your profile until you swap out the song.”

Instagram has been testing this feature since 2022, and it’s finally available to all users. By incorporating music elements into the platform, Instagram aims to capture the essence of self-expression through music in a post-TikTok world.

The addition of profile songs aligns Instagram with the evolving landscape of music promotion on social media. With TikTok’s future in the U.S. uncertain, Instagram is positioning itself as an alternative platform for music promotion and creative expression.

In addition to profile songs, Instagram has introduced “Add Yours Music” stickers, music in Notes, song lyrics display in Reels, and other interactive music elements to engage users in a unique way.

So, if you’re looking to share your favorite tunes and connect with your audience through music, Instagram’s latest feature is tailor-made for you. Embrace your music taste, express yourself, and let your profile song speak volumes about who you are.
