Fake bands are not a new thing. Of course, that usually meant a real vocalist and real (usually studio) musicians but those songs were still sold for money. If this guy produced songs that people listened is it any different than what came before?
The fake listeners, though, aren't the same thing. Bots don't buy products.
- blitzar 2y agoMilli Vanilli comes to mind; After these details emerged, lawsuits were filed under various U.S. consumer fraud protection laws against Arista Records ... settlement was approved; it refunded those who attended concerts as well as those who bought Milli Vanilli recordings. An estimated 10 million buyers were eligible to claim a refund, and they could keep the refunded recordings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milli_Vanilli https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milli_Vanilli
- mech422 2y agoOddly enough - the guy behind Milli Vanilli (Frank Farian),had done the exact same thing before..He wrote the song 'Rasputin' and then created the lip sync band 'BoneyM' to 'perform' it... BoneyM went on to have a pretty big career, including "Rivers of Babylon/Brown Girl in the Ring", which was a hit all over Europe, reaching no.1 in several countries as well as becoming one of the biggest selling singles of all time in the UK. Years after BoneyM, he did the same thing with Milli Vanilli If it ain't broke, don't fix it ? :-D 1.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Farian https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Farian 2.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boney_M https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boney_M.
