Show HN: I want to work at Rap Genius, so I made this.
- zerovox 14y ago"There are not more than five primary colours," is true, three is less than five
- ankitshah 14y agoyou got me there
- SparrowOS 14y agoI'll distribute hymns on my distribution. They can be tricked-out with animations and annotations. They are wonderfully few bytes.
- aepstein 14y agoFYI: cofounder's name is "Mahbod", not "Maboo".
- ankitshah 14y agoyou're right! I referred to him with full name throughout the site later on (in the annotations), but the album cover was meant to be more playful, so I went with his nickname (http://rapgenius.com/Maboo http://rapgenius.com/Maboo). appreciate you looking out though :)
- Strang 14y agoIs Rap Genius just a layer of fluff over a lyrics site? Are they using "commentary" and "criticism" of the lyrics to eke out a fair use claim?
- gamblor956 14y agoThe point of the fair use doctrine is precisely to protect discourse of artistic works, i.e., by commentary on or criticism of such works. The depth and quality (or lack thereof) of such discourse is irrelevant.
- ytadesse 14y agoGreat initiative. Terrible rap.
- ankitshah 14y agoagreed. terrible rap.
- kleeme 14y agoeveryone here is hatin; this is a rap genius idea and shows great initiative on your part to demonstrate tangible benefits you can immediately bring to the team. Would be extremely disappointed if the Rap Genius team didn't follow up with you on this
