It's been known for awhile that Spotify was going to hold an event on April 24, 2018. What wasn't known was what would be announced. Could it be related to cars, its stock or its subscription bundle with Hulu?

To give an idea of what to expect, Spotify shared an invite that reads, "Hear what's next for our mobile app."
