At Spotify, we're all about supporting rising talent and helping them connect with fans worldwide. Our RADAR programis designed to do just that, and this year's global class of RADAR Creators is bigger, more diverse, and more innovative than ever.

This annual list spotlights the most promising emerging creators who are making waves and defining the future of the medium. RADAR combines marketing, editorial, and promotional support to help emerging creators reach new audiences and deepen listener connections.

First launched in 2020 to champion up-and-coming artists, RADAR has since grown to include support for songwriters and podcast creators. Since its pilot in 2022, RADAR Creators has supported more than 120 shows globally. Over the years, several RADAR creators have gone on to become breakout names-like Good Children, where childhood best friends Joe Hegyesand Andrew Muscarella unpack the side effects of being a little too well-behaved.

This year, we've expanded the program to feature creators in 11 countries, podcasting in multiple languages and across popular genres, including true crime, digital culture, sports, entertainment, knowledge, and wellness. From Scott Evansinviting guests into his home on House Guestfor honest, unscripted conversations to the Tiger Sisters-Cherie Brooke Luo and Jean Luo-blending late-night sister talk with boardroom strategy, this dynamic group embodies the vibrant culture of podcasting. The Class of 2025 is also pushing the boundaries of what a podcast can be, with many innovating in video, a format that has skyrocketed in popularity since becoming available on Spotify.

"RADAR Creators are shaping the future of podcasting," said Jordan Newman, Head of Content Partnerships at Spotify. "They're redefining what storytelling sounds and looks like, connecting with audiences in new and meaningful ways."
