Genius Reviews

Avoid this place at all cost

Avoid this place at all cost Their Staff is just members of the site You will never get emailed back over an issue aka there real staff completely tosses out any emails they receive

An absolute crapfest

An absolute crapfest Mods that don t remove users who spam hate comments site owners don t give two craps how unprofessional their site appears I cannot believe this site is considered good enough for Spotify to even consider at this point So much spam and hate comments

Totally unprofessional and uncaring site

My rating is based on my experiences as a songwriter submitting lyrics to this site If it was possible to give a no star rating I would They do not deserve a one star rating When I first used the site I was impressed by being able to put metadata down on the site to credit others who had sung or played on my songs and write about the song inspiration etc However what I have noticed is that Genius sends the lyrics to other sites and the Metadata gets twisted around in the process with people being given credit for writing my songs when they didn t write any lyrics or arrange write the music I don t know how many times I have written to this faceless company to rectify false recording of info but they never respond to anything you send All my songs show as unreviewed on their site even though some have been there for years now I had to remove others from the credits on their metadata myself to try and stop the false reporting but it still happens regardless I noted my song Anti-Vaxxer is currently showing as having been written by Mark Hocknell who co-produced and played on it but Mark didn t write any of the lyrics and I have 100 copyright of them all registered What sort of bogus company is this that doesn t respond to or give a toss about contributors Bruce Neilsen aka The Immaculate Crows

The site is total garbage

The site is total garbage run by uninformed losers with nothing else to do but police those who are more informed but won t devote as much time

Genius Definitely NOT

Keep it simple stupid This site is useless Tried to upload my album before it gets released Can t upload album art unless you have a url You can t simply upload it from your computer or anywhere else Ancient way of thinking and a terrible site layout Wasted 1 hour before I tried to erase my account Only problem is you have to request them to erase it for you Allmusic com via Tivo is way better I m finished uploading all my liner notes including album art Don t waste your precious time on this site Especially If you re an independent artist or label

Useless Site

The Moderators don t moderate The site lacks many many features and is strictly limited when uploading stuff It s packed with a bunch of Ads and Cookies that slow down the website and makes it unusable without an Adblocker

Interpretations of lyrics are removed

Interpretations of lyrics are removed instead of it being an open forum Songs that could have a trifecta of interpretations are limited to the thoughts of their narrow brained moderators or top contributors It should be an open discussion instead of a popular pick or bureaucratic vote Don t waste your time with this site I won t again

Incompetent moderation throughout

I suggested an improvement to a song They archived deleted in fact my improvement because they did not agree They blocked my account from adding any other suggestion They REFUSE to delete my account even though I emailed them about it several times I never received any reply explaining why they don t delete my account The songs explaination is entirely dependent on the consensus of the users which tend to favour ideas that look cooler rather than those that make sense Because of this the website is unreliable
