This episode is featuring the illustrious Insanul Ahmed - Executive Editor at Genius or Genius.com - a music lyric platform that crowdsources knowledge to explain the deeper meaning behind music and culture!
Genius is aptly named I think. Passionate fans contribute their music/lyrical knowledge and insight in pursuit of cred (digital street cred) in the form of Genius IQ. With Genius’ growing success and their partnership w/ Spotify powering the “Behind the Lyrics” features within the app - huge Artists themselves lend their insights including folks like Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, and a host of others.
The company was founded in 2009 and is based in Brooklyn and today’s release is with a native New Yorker, a lover of music and a senior voice in the Genius organization.
This was a fun discussion - Insanul can tell a good story which is probably what makes him a great writer - and good stories make for great interviews. So I won’t prolong this intro any further - please enjoy - Executive Editor at Genius.com, Insanul Ahmed!
