This week, rumors are buzzing about a new release by Twitter of a music app. It comes just in time as Coachella started last Friday and (closer to home) many UGA students witnessed an amazing concert by Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean, and Jake Owen in Sanford Stadium. The app was set to launch on Friday, but I have yet to hear anything over the weekend about the release.
Ryan Seacrest has been tweeting about the unreleased app. Apparently, it will allow music lovers to share songs, follow rising artists, and see popular songs among your friends. This app would be monumental in Twitter gaining more artists and giving them the ability to spread their music via word-of-mouth. This new app may cause trouble for Myspace as it begins to focus more on entertainment.
Overall, it is very interesting to see how Twitter is considering joining many other social platforms and pursuing music. Many users enjoy music while surfing the web or are looking for new songs to listen to at the gym. It should be interesting to see if that application surfaces & whether or not it gains traction in the social media world.
