Streaming giant Spotify is joining in on Taylor Swift's 'Midnights' related mayhem!

Swift has been gifting her fans with easter eggs related to her upcoming album, "Midnights," which will arrive on October 21st.

After the ceremony, Swift took to her social media accounts at midnight to share more information about the album.
