    @Mandevil23 He was terrible as Shazam. This didn’t matter in the slightest.

    @ORTHODOXLAD1 @SynthPotato If you can find a long enough clip of it without too much talking try Shazam, or a service like that.

    The only defense i can give on this is that these connected universes gives a kind of “excuse” to use B & C list characters for films. Audiences swung on stuff like Antman and Shazam bc they bought into the wider storyline. The issue is the DCU doesn’t have that appeal

    Look I don't know who this fellow is (I assume he's some sort of a bigwig in the beverage industry) but that's a terrible name for this app. If we're gonna rename it let's go with "Shazam!" or "Ka-chow!" ya know, something catchy and fun.

    Played a song and asked my roommate to guess who the artist is. Guy cheekily pulls his phone out to make it seem like he’s texting someone and i saw his hand move from the top of the screen to shazam it. Puts down his phone a few secs later of fake brainstorming he gets it right

    The Shazam issue has been fixed but we won't be able to reach our goal I really hope this doesn't happen again especially since there are covers of the other leaked songs as well

    @YagoRochaAlvz "He took down the Snyderverse" Outperformed both Shazam movies, Flash and Wonder Woman 2 and was the better movie.

    @DespairNem obv there's stormfront who's supposed to be transformed shazam but there's also a billy batson kid but he doesnt get his own arc he just appears for an issue or two i think

    @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 letting me down yet again. Nice.

  • PapiNCali
    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.

    @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

    @damiebi10 Every sequel from the dceu was a complete disaster Ww Shazam Aqua man Hell the solos were terrible

  • richbateman87
    Rich Bateman (@richbateman87) reported

    realistically who or what are we blaming for dcs problems right now? why has supergirl underperformed as bad as blue beetle, shazam 2 and the flash? because this needs addressing

  • Billy_batshed
    Meimei🍦🍧 (@Billy_batshed) reported

    @the_xueyutanhua We should all agree that that Shazam run never existed, never happened, was never written. Not only did it do absolute **** for jon and Damian, but also it's main characters throughout every issue 😭

    📣 | UPDATE: After numerous templates and emails since 2025, it seems as though Bang Chan’s Spotify profile has now been fixed, with the fake songs removed. HOWEVER! Issues still persist across YouTube/YouTube Music, Apple Music, Shazam, Amazon Music, Tidal and Deezer. We will provide an updated template once we have finished reviewing each platform in depth.

    feeling a bit bogged down in the Calculus II content on Math Academy after taking a break for a few months. Making really dumb, silly errors... so I asked Grok to make me a little web app to drill derivatives and integrals. Shazam! in less than a minute! ...except, the question database needs to be super big and varied, and the multiple-choice on a flash card format is dry and boring. So.... while I wait on Gemini to grind JSON for a different project today, I figured out how to get Qwen running on my 3070, piped it into Cline in VSCODE, and have it trying to build me Calculus Hero minigames so I can memorize and do rapid recall without it feeling like paint drying. wish it luck.

    @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.

    @futurexhope This is actually true, yeah. The term AI is hard to define in itself and it can include tools like even Microsoft Word or Shazam if not delimited enough, but generative AI is a very specific part of it that is the core of the whole issue with AI these past years. Not that hard

    BRRUHHHHH my Loop app is becoming wild!! OBD-II scans. a shazam for car sounds. registration and repair reminders. car wash tracking. photo & video based damage scanner for scratches, dents, broken lights, glass, and those balding tires you got Opie is turning into a co-pilot!

    @absolute_verse I swear that’s the only reason they named it that so people thought it would be like the comic, my only issue with a KO fighting game is 32 is a giant roster for a fighting game and there’s only like Shazam and Mxy you could do as DLC from the comic

    @SavvyRinu No mind them, they are just tensioning people up and down, my own is the song playing at the background. I just had to shazam it now and findout the title... Straight to download it.. Johnny Drille - Stars Align

    @Gazungamer Honestly the biggest problem with the later output of the dceu. Stuff like Shazam and TSS would’ve done wonders 5 years earlier

    @YRANACKCALB The huge problem is Shazam is the personality of the both actors. They are really different

    @h0uselife Shut your dumb *** up Shazam one was better than Shazam two and he’s a ****** actor for doing what he did why he is going down the path that he’s going down with his career had his stupid *** put his ego & pride to the side something great could have come out of that.

    @CTPhipps1980 Well they did. They renamed him to Shazam a while back to avoid problems with Marvel I think.

    @RaminNasibov @TheBookofG1nk0 I downloaded Merlin but it will absolutely not work unless you give location permissions which is not cool. I mean it listens through mic AND tracks location. Privacy issue. Someone needs to invent a competitor that makes it optional! Bird Shazam on demand w/ manual loc data
