Spotify And Bumble Will Finally Let You Judge Potential Dates Based On Their Music Taste

The founder and CEO of Bumble, Whitney Wolfe, said the new development will add another factor to people's choice to swipe. "For us, it's all about giving our users more fun and meaningful ways to connect," she told The Huffington Post. "Music has such convening power and we're excited to see what insights come from users connecting based on a shared love of music." But Bumble is also working on a feature that'll put the damper on that: users will soon be able to hide certain artists from the feed. If you're like us, you probably don't want your future significant other to know you sit alone in your room listening to Billy Joel for hours on end. But our own self-indulgence aside, this is pretty disingenuous.
