Mindy #TeamLH@MVF1 (@MindyMVF1) reported@CambsCops Why hasn't Shazam Choudhary been arrested for this Anti-Semitic advert? Why aren't the Police nationwide investigating @TheGreenParty for Anti-Semitism? It's time this party was SHUT DOWN!😡

Remy Etienne Lebeau (@UnderwaterSquad) reported@thorkahh @iREUS_SA I kinda wonder where the spikes come from. I’m not all the way caught up. I just finished issue Abs Superman #20. I wasn’t sure if that was John Henry Irons or if it was Superman himself in that upgraded armor he wore when he pushed King Shazam to another planet in space
-
Bruh (@Returnofthebruh) reported@junglekxng3 @ReconNarwhal He's always had a huge ego, it was just at an all time high at the time (and even now) he really believed a Shazam villain could fix an already broken universe
-
IsleofPigsStudios (Brand New Day Hype!) (@IsleofPigStudio) reported@C_JuniorsMagic I admit I'm guilty of rambling about bad quality control, but it's not like we haven't had these errors before. I remember getting a DC Minis pack with 2 Firestorm Flynns and no Shazam Arry. And I have a Robo Toby misprint. These things happen.

Justin Fencsak (@kascnef82) reported@Rtfreese @BeatShazamFOX @Shazam Dumbing down
-
MER∆KI (@MerakiDelta) reported@DierkingJakob @Blaaaair96 @BlackMajikMan90 It may not have met expectations but it was still a financial success. It clearly also didn't damaged DC's reputation since SS, WW, Aquaman, and Shazam all were box office hits. You cant keep blaming BvS for the problems DC had long after it came out.

severe engineer (@severeengineer) reported@bryancsk once heard something playing at a low and muffled volume in a youtube vid thought it sounded up my alley, spent at least half an hour tracking it down after shazam got nothing, turns out it was a shining example of the "incelcore" music the kids are apparently making these days
-
𝕄𝕒𝕟 𝕝𝕚𝕜𝕖 𝕡𝕖𝕥𝕦𝕤 𝕏 (@bahdmanpetus) reported@larrytooreaal You can just take a screenshot from the edit and send to any ai it’ll give you the answer , if there’s to be something like Shazam for movies it’ll neeed access to your screen , privacy issues would arise
-
THE CAPTAIN ⚡️ (@Lightingclap) reported@UpbvatReporter “A-an interview?” Shazam stammered nervously as he looked down at the reporter. He laughed, rubbing the back of his neck. “With me? Are you sure? There’s plenty of other heroes around.”
-
minion maniac (@ihateweirdcreep) reported@magmortality @MyNameIsWepeeI I have a really bad auditory processing problem and unironically just figured out today that a song I’ve been enjoying when I hear it come on is not, in fact, in English. I only figured it out because I finally thought to Shazam the song because I couldn’t remember enough words to Google it myself. I was like “wait what there’s zero English” So basically I do this to the highest degree with any song in any language :)
-
Har Dey Wale🪖 (@CFC_adewale) reported@Ayeloja0 You people will just sit down and hype rubbish Seyi dey pack quantity over quality, that’s why his songs don’t have replay value why do you think people still dey go back and vibe to all Asake old albums till today? Who still dey remember Shazam or Instagram today lol
-
Rich Bateman (@richbateman87) reported@GunntArchive dc movies are doomed because they never learn; the fandom is fractured and they know this but instead of fixing this; they just double down on hating on zack snyder to convince you to support new dc movies it didnt work for black adam, shazam or blue beetle; theyre all idiots
-
Joseph Mora (@PapiNCali) reported@TaroPh59854 @MadonnaUltimate That sounds dramatic, but it does not really hold up from a music industry standpoint. Nobody needs an organized scheme to make a record underperform. The market does that all by itself. Streaming, radio callout, playlist retention, repeat listening, TikTok traction, Shazam activity, sales stability, and week-two drops tell the story. If a song connects, it holds. If it does not, no amount of “they are trying to erase her legacy” explains the public not coming back to the track. Madonna’s legacy is not being erased. Her legacy is already written. The issue is that some fans confuse legacy with current demand. She can be the Queen of Pop historically and still have a single that does not perform like a major hit in 2026. Those two things can exist at the same time. And honestly, blaming invisible “people hungry for the Queen title” feels like a distraction from the actual rollout. If the song had smashed, nobody would be talking about conspiracies. They would be posting chart receipts. But when you have label investment, Sabrina Carpenter attached, Coachella-adjacent hype, The Abbey, Grindr promo, listening parties, and still the numbers do not match the noise, that is not a takedown campaign. That is a rollout failing to convert attention into consumption. The music business is not sentimental. It does not care how iconic you are. It cares whether people stream the song again tomorrow. Madonna is not being erased. She is being measured. And that is what some fans cannot handle.

ankle (@ankleknuckle) reported@DIRTBAGCLOWN @EXCELSIORSPEAKS really the titans are the bigger issue imo. unnecessary to have damian as a second robin, and having ALL of starfire, cyborg, raven, and zatanna is indulgent in a roster without like, the flash or shazam or supergirl
-
Julie Hill (@hill_julie75450) reported@wakeupusa Oh Geez, not another new word. Besides a cheek swab, just pull your pants down and see what you were born with. Shazam you are a female and or shazam you are a male. No one's taking their rights to identify how they want, but you can't negate biological reality.
-
James L. Greenlee (@GreenleeGazette) reported@SpeelingBChamp @CaraAxtell @TheBabylonBee "Miracles" are plot-hole spackle. It literally fixes any logical problems with any story in the bible. It's magic. Magic can do anything, so no matter what problem there might be, shazam! Magic! It's juvenile silliness to me.

penis (@penis7977055683) reportedi once insulted someone’s music taste then when they played music like two months later it was so good, but the problem is i can’t tell them that.. so i installed shazam and stole them myself #independent
-
Lisa!! Emergency Comms (@kenmoos) reported@tisgonnascream BAHAHA OH NOOO I love them.... But I have this weird thing w Julian Casablanca of the strokes where ill be like "jfc that sounds like Julian Casablancas" and be really annoyed when I Shazam it and it is him. But i like the strokes so idk what my problem is with him
-
Igor Brigadir 🇺🇦 (@IgorBrigadir) reportedDRAMA 🎭 at the public library! Some lad walked in and started blasting some tune about sucking **** or something like that and the library staff had trouble getting him to stop. Sickened I didn’t manage to Shazam the track - might have been his own creation. We will never know.
-
***** Archer 🏹 (@DirtyArcher) reported@NicholasCraven_ Man i heard a sample like a year ago and tried to Shazam it but my service was *** and til this day I'm still trying to figure out the song lol.
-
Dreams Uncharted Comix (@DreamsUnchartd) reported@CTPhipps1980 Well they did. They renamed him to Shazam a while back to avoid problems with Marvel I think.
-
Oddy23 (@MandelbrotEater) reported@VelaIka009 @clownvoid Problem is more often than not Shazam is not working
-
Bob Genghis Khan (@bob_genghis) reported@PopverseSays He’s not a strong actor but shave his face, down his hair black and he’s silver age Shazam/CM
-
Ziggy (@ZquadboyZ) reported@dailystarzam Retire Billy, have the Shazam mantel be passed down every couple years, because Billy staying a child ruins any semblance of a timeline. Also Shazam is a cool name
-
herb 🌿 (@theybert) reportedshazam is the worst card service out there LET ME SPEND MY ******* MONEY
-
One_Lone_Pixel (@One_Lone_Pixel) reported@Mandevil23 He was terrible as Shazam. This didn’t matter in the slightest.
-
Ron Bialkowski (@Zrbialk) reported@FakeNightskin I am having trouble getting into this title because it's being written for younger readers. I when DC did the time jump and I liked Campbell's writing less on Shazam! less. So I really cannot have an opinion. Just don't trivialize Peter David's Linda Danvers.

Marco Almeida (@MarcoAlmeidaPT) reportedCar stereo playing a song on the radio. iPhone connected via CarPlay. Opening Shazam or Apple’s own “recognize music” tool immediately shuts down the radio. I know taking over the car stereo audio when the microphone is activated is the standard behavior, but it’s kind of stupid in this scenario, right?
