It's always a scam. These are scammers.

Send me $25k. I'm a Nigerian Prince. Fuck those assholes, I'm the real deal.

Seems pointless. There are a ton of existing music streaming services. It's a cut throat slim profit margin business.

That’s just what a scammer would say!

Why is this even being covered?

Or maybe, and just hear me out here, it might totally be a scam.

We live in a world of face eating tigers and everyone just wants to get a closer look at them. Let me just step out of your way friend so you can smash your face against this wide-spaced cage.

May not be a scam this time, that's high praise!
