Can’t Afford Spotify Premium? TikTok’s Newest Voice Filter Makes This Man Question His Life Choices

Recently, the Internet was flooding with enthusiastic listeners sharing their Spotify Wrapped. There were many interesting shares, from unexpected top songs to top genres— Spotify kept the ball rolling every year and will continue to feast us with our exciting wrap annually.

If you’re familiar with the biggest music streaming app, you’ll know there are many plans to choose from— Premium and Free. In Malaysia, we have Spotify Mini, Individual, Student, Duo and Family. These plans vary in price, but their benefits are almost identical.

If you can’t afford the premium plan, you can always listen to your favourite songs for free. However, many are aware that the free version comes with ads. And you’ll hear them more often than the music.

So, does this voice filter in the TikTok video posted by mik (@mikhailhanafi) ring a bell for you?

If it does, then yes! It’s the same voice you hear in Spotify ads!

User @mikhailhanafi is kicking up the notch by using the filter to ponder his life choices, all because he couldn’t pay for his premium Spotify plan.

The caption says,

Trust [me] when I say this [Spotify] voice filter will take over my life.

In the video, he mimics a typical Malaysian mother that asks why their children studied a course that isn’t medicine, law, or engineering. These courses are believed to guarantee high income. Honestly, every Malaysian kid can relate to this.

And, the netizen says he sounds like many Malaysian actresses!

Breezing through the comment section, many say he sounds like an array of Malaysian actresses like Diana Danielle, Amelia Henderson and Nabila Huda. Do you hear the resemblance?

Others can’t help but laugh out loud (while in pain because they, too, can’t afford to pay for their Spotify plan)

Never have we ever felt this called out by a TikTok filter before!
