Spotify turns 2 in India The music streaming app has become a companion in the kitchen, during walks and for WFH. What’s driving the growth narrative? Mathures Paul | | Published 02.03.21, 12:20 AM In the last few days something amazing is playing out on Spotify — Bruce Springsteen and former US President Barack Obama are chatting about race, fatherhood and societal divisions in America. Their podcast, Renegades: Born in the USA, come across as two guys who admire each other and are equally worried about where their country is headed. “In our own ways, Bruce and I have been on parallel journeys. We still share a fundamental belief in the American ideal. Not as an airbrushed, cheap fiction or an act of nostalgia that ignores all the ways that we’ve fallen short of that ideal. But as a compass for the hard work that lies before each of us as citizens,” the former president says in the first episode.
