    the venue under my apartment needs to stop playing remixes bro like I’m up here tryna Shazam this **** and it’s not working 💔

    @KS052020 @jkbaker1117 @ParamountPics You would keep failing then. The GA do not want cbm. Unless you are OK with sub 500m box offices. That is fine if the movie has Joker or Shazam budgets. The problem with dc and now the mcu is that the fans want something the ga does not care for.

    @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

    @Goldenfoxx @AndresTarango Same issue I have with some of my Flash merchandise. Lots of people mistaking it for BBT merch, or Shazam/Captain Marvel merch.

    @KaroyStephenson @TheFilmJunkee I don't agree but I understand this when it comes to the 1st Aquaman movie. It's not terrible, but it's not great either. The 2nd one however is down there with TSS and Shazam 2.

    @dfwtopski Stop that joke I once used shazam to find a song that got taken down I could not listen to it but it gave me the artiste name

    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.

    @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…

    @ri_neb LandR is pretty decent in my opinion here is pros and cons: pro: They give you shazam, contentID for free Cover licenses are a one time payout If you stop paying your subscription they won't take down your songs, but take a 15% cur from your revenue Support team are humans only and no useless chat bot cons: Because they dont use AI in their systems they have a manual QC team that needs to look through your release and manually approve which takes some business days If you're making a remix they need documentation for rights of sample usage which takes even more days to process They dont support label plans and is generally for solo artists so if you were planning a "Various Artist" release it is usually meant for 1-3 artists per release Hope this helps

    @PlayBkPlay @nikomoon I had the terrible misfortune of hearing Beach Cowboy in a Target the other day. I couldn’t believe how awful it was, and I had to Shazam it to hear who was responsible for such a musical travesty. Seriously, this is why country music gets a bad rap. Complete garbage.

    Shazam not working at Ben Sterling … Set is heating up

    been feeling like a larper recently (bought some shazam comics but haven't had the opportunity to have a proper sit down + warm beverage read session yet)...what if someone asks me to name five comics and i can't....

  • hanniedontcare
    littledaisy 🌼 (@hanniedontcare) reported

    I was just thinking about this now.. it was so unfair. we got less time to prepare for nonexistent, super poorly organized Back To Life promotion. practically zero promotion outside twitter, broken links, the song was stolen across streaming platforms, shazam got hijacked, MV + release announce last minutes and BTL hit streaming a month later. we were on our own while other fbs got weeks to prep. we could've done so much more with an early heads up. we could've easily debuted with over 1M streams if jyp wasnt so ****** 😭😭😭

    @TheCinesthetic I don’t think it’s a disaster of a movie. I really like so much of it, that it overshadows the issues the film does have. But it’s def not a horrible or even bad movie. I mean the first one is better. But WW84 is better than Quantumania, Fantastic Four, Shazam 2, The Marvels,etc

    @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.

    @DeathMetalV Maybe because too many of a certain kind of person were raised on reading science fiction where any inconvenient plot problem can be solved by simply making something up that's never existed before. Shazam! Problem solved!

  • jakonian

    I've spent about 2 hours trying to figure out this one song I heard in a McDonald's as children screamed. I had no service, couldn't Shazam. Little Bird by Annie Lennox. I genuinely cheered.

    @ihatemeen_ superman would beat any of them one on one but shazam and wonder woman together could probably take him down also batman would def kryptonite on standby if this ever happened

  • MrAdamas
    Igwe Okoye (@MrAdamas) reported

    Google Pixel used to have a cool feature with Now Playing. It had the silent drop down notification. Now it's basically Shazam. Why do I have to open the app or turn off my phone to view the lock screen to know what's playing? So inconvenient

  • DeeViDual
    DeeViDual (@DeeViDual) reported

    @ayothesage_ He did shrug off the flow of information that was weighing Shazam down even with Solomon's wisdom. He was seeing that and still had time to worry about Shazam. So it's not far fetched to say that he can

  • Lightingclap
    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.”

  • JHQ409259
    Count Napier 2: La secuela (@JHQ409259) reported

    @TheBatspecter It really was the DCEU itself, Lego DC was at its best at that time (add to that the success of Lego Batman Movie)Lego DC really went down the drain when the movies didn't seem to have direction (you know, Shazam, Joker, TSS, SnyderCut) The only one that had a set was WW84.

    I think @Shazam is broken. I use it to identify a song and it said DJ Smooth Panda. Is this real life?

    @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!😡

    Here we have Gretchen Whitmer (aka SHAZAM) with an important public service notice about an issue that is not an issue. What a joke.

    when did shazam become so terrible? it’s literally unable to recognise “titanium” playing directly from the speaker although when i was kid i could start to sing and it would easily find the song

    Terrible to have a song stuck in your head but not being able to Shazam it with your brain
