SHAZAM OF SHAME
How it worksWhy it’s funHOST A PARTY
Court is now in session

EVERY PARTY HAS A GUILTY PLAYLIST.

Your guests’ Shazam history is a confession waiting to happen — every song they were too embarrassed to know but desperate enough to identify. Collect it. Play it. Put their names on it.

The procedure
HOW THE TRIAL WORKS
01
HOST OPENS COURT
Connect your Spotify and start a party. A QR code goes up on the wall — that's the entire setup.
02
GUESTS CONFESS
They scan, state their name for the record, and confess: connect Spotify for auto-import, share Shazam song links, paste their My Shazam Tracks playlist, or search by hand. No app, no account required.
03
SHAME PLAYS LIVE
Every confession lands in a real Spotify playlist on your account. The Shame Screen plays it and names the guilty party on every track change.
Hosting takes one Spotify login. Guests need nothing but a phone and a guilty conscience.
The verdict
WHY THIS IS THE BEST WORST PLAYLIST YOU’LL EVER HEAR
A Shazam isn’t a song you like — it’s a song that got you. At the gym, in an Uber, at 3 AM. Nobody curates their Shazam history, which is exactly why it makes the most honest party playlist in the room. Add names, and every track change becomes an event.
I.
Attribution is the punchline
“BLAME: KEN” in two-foot letters turns a mid song into the moment of the night. The playlist is fine; the names make it theater.
II.
Zero friction for guests
QR scan to confessed track in under a minute. The lazy path (one tap of Spotify connect) is even faster than the manual one.
III.
It runs itself
The playlist lives on your Spotify — play it on any speaker, or run the Shame Screen with live ticker and Wall of Shame leaderboard. No DJ required.
THE COURT WILL NOW HEAR YOUR PLAYLIST.
Free to host. Painful to attend. Impossible to skip.
