Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong reveals why his Spotify playlist is 7-hour-long
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong has revealed an unusual work habit. Sharing a post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Armstrong said that he listens to the same song on repeat for hours to stay focused. The post comes after a recent Spotify playlist leak that showed Armstrong has a playlist where the same song is repeated 60 times. Armstrong confirmed the news in the X post, saying, 'From the Spotify leak — I've been exposed for having a 7-hour-long playlist with only one song on it. It helps me do deep focused work, don't ask me why.' The song that Armstrong listens to is "Long Way Home" by music producer and DJ Gareth Emery. The song is 7 minutes and 25 seconds long, which makes the entire playlist around 7.5 hours. Emery responded to Armstrong's post, saying, 'I love this! Back when I wrote it, everyone thought 7 minutes was way too long and it needed cutting down — glad I kept it exactly as it was, and love seeing that it's still out there doing good in the world!' Spotify playlist leak reveals CEOs music preferences The Spotify playlist leak, being referred to as the 'Panama Playlists,' revealed song choices from various CEOs and politicians. Armstrong's playlist became a talking point because of its unusual structure. According to the leak, Armstrong has 10 public playlists on Spotify. Some of his other favorite songs include: "Two Suns In The Sky" by Davi "Greatest Love of All" by Whitney Houston "SOL" by Pryda "Wait For It" by the Original Broadway cast of Hamilton "Shallow" by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper The playlist leak has raised concerns about Spotify's privacy settings, which by default can make user playlists public.
