Life may change, but music will always be a part of it

Malaysians’ life has now completely transformed, as people spend more time staying at home with reduced social activities. Despite this, we observed that 5pm daily is still the peak hour for people to listen to music which is likely due to people needing a leisure hour after a day of studying or hard work. Other interesting music habits include:

  • JOOX users in Malaysia listened to around 20 songs a day on average 
  • The most streaming times are on Friday and Saturday, with Malaysians being accompanied by JOOX’s music and entertainment featured during the ‘stay at home’ period
  • What better way to enjoy some “me time” at home than watching movies? The total streaming time by JOOX users in Malaysia is equivalent to watching all entries in a superhero film series 1.2 million times

Let’s take a look at the “2020 top music hits, to see the best played songs that accompanied Malaysians throughout the year.

A group of popular and up-and-coming local artists from Universal Music Group delivered a “marathon style” music performance on JOOX Live from evening till midnight.

JOOX also found out that Malaysian users love interacting with singers and other karaoke lovers on the platform.
