SHAZAM
Shazam is an essential tool that helps identify songs playing around you, whether from a video, a speaker, or another app. It is widely used by the music industry and radio stations to track popular songs, which influences global charts. The more a song is Shazamed, the higher its chances of getting radio play and charting on platforms like HOT100.
✔ Shazam helps with radio play & viral charts – Highly Shazamed songs get pushed to radio playlists and algorithm-based trending charts (like Billboard’s Hot 100 formula).
✔ SNS engagement boosts Shazam numbers – Fans sharing their Shazams and encouraging others to Shazam creates a viral loop.
✔ TikTok & YouTube Shorts impact Shazam numbers – Many casual listeners Shazam songs from short-form content, so it ties into SNS strategies.
✔ Shazam trends can push a song into viral music sections – Just like trending hashtags on X/TikTok, high Shazam activity increases visibility.
