Lorand Minyo (@lorandminyo) reported@andreasklinger Here's an honest take from a European founder: Eu startups have a huge marketing problem, but an even bigger lack-of-big-***** founders/VCs/angels/institutional partners/insert anything here. Back in 2014, I built the Shazam for Video, and almost overnight won all startup pitches, contests and whatnots in Europe. So I naturally looked for clients, investments and all the things we were told we needed. I was promised millions by VCs, corporate partners, and potential clients, but guess what, when it came to ante up, all of them stepped back: VCs were investing if we had clients, clients would do free pilots with us if we got investment, and corporate partners agreed to support us if we got clients and investments. Had contracts signed with some of the biggest media companies in Europe and couldn't deliver because all those interested would defer risk to someone else. So one year in, I caved and shut down. Happened twice in Europe, but never in the US or the Middle East. We need to get off our high horses and admit to all our shortcomings, not just the convenient few.

KEFFCHXP FANPAGE (@13xkeff) reported@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
-
Grok (@grok) reported@RewindingD @karol_rosalin I can't access the audio in that clip to Shazam it. If you caught any lyrics or can describe the beat/style, I'll hunt it down! 🎶

nate (@nate23297839) reported@MikeWoods0 What I said was that I’m pretty sure down the line in a third movie we would see both of them together in one movie but I did hear stuff that the rock was not down to have him the first movie and people took that the wrong way like no Shazam with black Adam in the first movie ?? Skip so I’m sure they where going to build it up in the second movie then boom the third movie with Shazam and superman and black Adam
-
The High Chimps (@TheHighChimps) reported@lRawMedia @grok my shazam is not working, what is the name of this song.
-
Gibson (@wolf_sazen) reported@GENERALZOD1886 3 things: 1. The rock didnt want to be the villain in a shazam movie 2. Henry Cavill was having issues with WB 3. Henry Cavill's Superman needed to go through some development before he could play the role superman played in this movie, and that wasnt going to happen
-
Ơ̴̴̴̴͡.̮Ơ̴̴̴͡ (@fwlucid_) reportedShazam is the only app that solves an actual problem people ever developed.
-
Kol El (@Pryme_Official) reported@maxvayshia Black Adam and Thor will seriously wear him down. Especially Black Adam because he's not even different from Shazam, and Shazam is just as strong as Supes. Hancock too tbh. That n!gga built different fr. The rest are insects.
-
Ghost (@themarvelking7) reported@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 .
-
Quako’s Shut (@nicholaski) reportedShazam might be the only app that solves an actual problem people ever developed but Instagram allowing you to add music to your Spotify liked songs without switching apps is right up there too
-
Rager Ragnarok (@RagerRagnarok) reported@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!"
-
Born To Boogie - Marc Bolan Archive (@GlamRockMarc) reported📆 April 19, 2002, “Jeepster” by T. Rex became the first song successfully identified by Shazam. This happened during a pre-launch test of the service, which at the time required users to call a phone number and receive the song title via text message. The company, now owned by Apple, has since developed technology capable of identifying billions of songs.

Saint Sam J. of IU Indy (@winatTheJim) reported@Bunny_ngl Order burgers and -Shazam- the amount you tip goes down
-
Midori (@MidoriVtuber02) reported@TelemachusCEO @khiawings Because the translation Ai sucks. Just shazam the song then look on youtube for english subs. Oh my god. You lack media literacy. Also, basic problem solving skills. That’s embarrassing.
-
brucew39🇺🇦🐓📘🖊️☕🎷🎹🎺🎬 (@MrWayne6969) reported@LilithThelema @LilFormers Shazam is the name of the wizard who gave powers to Earth's mightiest hero. The name issue is a copyright matter, and its Marvel counterparts are pathetic: all of them!
-
Grok (@grok) reported@texanKhris @kirawontmiss Sorry, can't access the video audio to Shazam it from here. The RDJ "realization/shock to restraints" edit looks like a custom meme—describe the beat/melody (fast build-up? orchestral? trap?) and I'll track it down!
-
kait (@kaituhhh) reportedalmost 2 years ago, someone walking by was trying to shazam beat up chanels as i was listening to it first time w my windows down at a red light
-
Grok (@grok) reported@ParkerAlex19286 @sakpo0007_ Sorry, I can't pull audio from the video to ID the background song—it's a common issue with these montage clips. They often use generic dramatic/trending instrumentals for effect. If it's from TikTok/Reels, try Shazam on the original!
-
Trae "comfort destroyed" Wilson (@TraeWilson9) reported@Nerdy_Weirdo That's be such a cool actor tradition for Shazam; the Billy yesterday is the Shazam tomorrow. The only problem is I'm not sure a child would fully understand what they were committing to accepting the Billy role.
-
ᵀᴱᵁᴿᴱˣˣ⁹⁸⁰⁰- (@TRX9800_) reported@Joel__subash Because terrible privacy is why you switch away from Shazam in the first place? Why use one that's even worse in that regard
-
speedwell (@vspeedwell4) reported@turntineforwhat for me i just turn on my phone, tap the shazam widget, use face ID, and then it’s immediately open on the app. that’s so weird it’s not working for you :(
-
Nemesis (@Nemesis810570) reported@ffommaa @Lilsly0 @Dah_Saint001 Try dey current bruh 😐dem dey deduct Wizmid streams,even his Shazam self so if you are not that current abeg try stfu Na people like una just dey put Wizmid for trouble 😵💫
-
🗡🗡🗡 (@slimthemenace) reportedyoure supposed to put Shazam in your drop down! not open the whole app. 🥷🏽
-
Vel 🩵🤍 Hachiware shooter (@Babsfavorite) reportedUnfortunately the power of Shazam is boring as hell, I might just only read the issues that have cool summaries
-
PlanetFanatix (@planetfanatix) reportedGod these are awful. I truly wish DC figures could fall into Hasbro‘s hands. McFarlane isn’t even trying at this point. I have been waiting for a black Canary and she looks terrible. Vigilante is OK in that new Shazam 🤮🤮

Kirk Wise (@KirkWise) reported"I'm killin' life like a one way ticket to hell I'm on a high goin' down, down, down I wanna wipe that sad, sad feelin' away Down, down, down" - Foxy Shazam

miss ✩ grayson-todd 🦇 (@KUR0MlSS) reportedshazam issues so bad i had to step off and go drawing
-
J.S. Karma (@EtInferius) reported@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....
-
unamo6567 (@unamo6567) reported@Updates4DC He turned down playing Superman in shazam and didn't want to appear in any studio projects until they basically guaranteed him a superman movie which he never got. Zack Synder left WB Henry Cavil rejected the offer to play superman. Jason Mamoa said he rather be Lobo.
