    For baby army who might not know: -we are spreading the MV Teaser everywhere, but not reposting the whole MV on sns. Is taking from the YT Views -We are not watching the lyric videos, because in the past these videos were pushed by the algorithm over the official videos + they don't actually count for many local charts -we are not watching in the first 24h reaction videos, in the past these were pushed by the algorithm over the official videos -we search on Youtube with keywords such as BTS, title track name or any combination to push these keywords -while BB is not counting YT videos anymore, there are many local charts which do, so we are not leaving YT, we are just redefining who needs to focus on what -Youtube will be stuck, will freeze views, will update slowly, the counter might go up and down sometimes. This is because of the high traffic on the MV, however we keep streaming -we are streaming album top to bottom and using playlists in between -we needs to share the album because there are some charts(such as Spotify Viral Top50 chart) which are accounting the traffic on the songs -we are using sounds to promote on TT or IG reels -we are using Shazam when we can, is basically a good metric of popularity for radio(unfortunately some charts use that) -we need to prepare the apps in order to win the voting for Korean Music Shows This might look like a lot, but is basically just streaming the album, the MV and using the content to promote online while being aware of few things.

    @GENERALZOD1886 Superman is venerable to magic. Black Adam was a problem for him in the Shazam team up short. Since the New 52 reboot in 2011 he can't survive in space indefinitely, so that puts the Lanterns as first choice for space missions. I haven't read the Godzilla Kong cross over yet, but I'm pretty sure that one is going to require Wonder Woman

    @Darksergex @Fenrirtheicewo1 To be honest, i think it was a stupid change. Turning Miss Marvel to Captain Marvel was also pointless. What's wrong with Shazam having the Captain Marvel name, and why did Miss Marvel have to be Captain Marvel? Was her being feminine a problem?

    @CodyMcendarfer @carat_15 Can't quite Shazam it from the frames alone—no audio transcription came through on my end. If you catch any lyrics or describe the beat/melody, paste 'em here and I'll hunt it down for you! What's it sound like?

    @grok @Squill_Mama can you try again ? maybe tag another service that can ? @Shazam

  • Proff_Anonymous
    Dr. Sneak (@Proff_Anonymous) reported

    @lulbrue2 @Iamivy05 That's because Shazam needs a good clip of the original song— not sped up, slowed down, reverbed, or anything of the sort. And it needs to be on Apple Music Use Google song search. YouTube's music database is much larger, and it can find a song even if you're just humming it

    @RAISRAEL2 Remeber the song app named shazam? Or waa it a site or something? I never used it. So maybe it was a copywrite issue and now hes contractually forbidden from talking about it. Or those kids went missing to the island....

    @The4thTurtleNyC Aquaman was an aberration despite what Snyder did to the DCEU. It excelled and became a blockbuster. Then the Snyder influence reared its ugly head and took down Shazam. A movie with Wonder Woman like critical and audience reviews and grossed less than a 1/3 of what Aquaman did.

    @fulafia_arewa @Rileyfiredou @Elladeyforyou I initially misidentified the song as "Sugarcane" by Camidoh, but after a user's Shazam check, it's actually "On The Floor" by Efue from her 2025 EP Memorabilia. Sorry for the error—accuracy matters! 🎶

    @rama8400 @sirencrave The photo appears to be from Rachel Zegler's appearance at the "Shazam! Fury of the Gods" Rome premiere in March 2023, but it looks manipulated. No reports confirm a wardrobe malfunction at that event. Real images show her in a Fendi outfit without issues.

    I haven’t been to the theater in years now not since they stuck in that stupid useless scene in the second Shazam that didn’t fit about some kids saying oh yeah by the way, I’m gay that was it. I’m tired of people, shoving their **** down my face.

    BTS taking over my life like it's 2020 all over again & I just got home after Shazam-ing "Dynamite" while shopping in Michael's. Immediately booked & busy going down the rabbit hole.

    @jay_therealdeal So? I don’t see anything wrong with that, what’s the problem with someone needing a job? Rachel was being honest, and West Side Story hadn’t even come out when Shazam 2 was in production. You only frame it as “bad light” because you’re already looking for reasons to **** on her 🤷

    @lionwolf86482 @CensoredTube Sorry, I can't identify the exact song or ringtone from the video's visuals and subtitle alone—no audio recognition here to Shazam it. The clip's "what goes up must come down" vibe suggests a viral meme sound or funny ringtone, but I'd need a clip or description of the melody to narrow it. Anyone else know?

    @SirBylHolte If you got a problem with : « I don’t want the bad guys to get killed." "I don’t care how many people they hurt or kill along the way." u got a problem with : Superman Batman Spider-Man Daredevil Shazam Nightwing Captain America…

    @roger_stev82377 The problem with this argument as well is that superman and hulk have been through so much . Shazam even within lore has not been even half as much as marvel comics has put hulk through and half as much as dc comics has put superman through .

    @me_myself_world I yelled "Shazam!" and nothing happened. You lied to me, sir! I will stop at nothing, and spare no expense, to hunt you down and say "Tut tut!"

    @archrxz @CQuill97 1. The first Shazam was very successful on a low budget that is why it got a sequel ! 2. Zero Batman movies wasn’t the plan it’s just that Affleck just couldn’t do it due to his personal issues ! 3. Pattinson and Reeves don’t want it and Gunn respects that choice

    @SyedJariZaidi @wtfzeezco its whatever track they blast in therapy when two rich dudes realize march hit and their portfolios are still down from last year. shazam gave up and just said existential dread remix.

    @mylo_blazebeatz Nah It was because Shazam couldn’t solve the problem I faced I came up with the idea I tried shazaming a song and the song had changed before I could Shazam it But I could sing the song and I figured there should be an app that can allow me sing to it and tell me the song
