Last week, Eminem released the new album kamikaze and without any warning, lots of people noticed the phrase “Now everybody doin’ Bitcoin” in Track 9. Even Shady has noticed this currency which named bitcoin. Does it mean that the entire cryptocurrency industry is being accepted by the public?
The result is affirmative. Because there were already singers involved in the field of cryptocurrency early before Eminem.
1. Icelandic musician Björk calls on fans to buy albums with bitcoin
In November 2017, Icelandic famous experimental musician Björk released an album called Utopia. As the leader of experimental music, Björk never rejects innovation. So this new album can also be purchased through the four most popular cryptocurrencies at the time, which is Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dash coin, and Audiocoin.
Of course, considering that some people have not understood the cryptocurrency, the album can still be paid via PayPal or credit card. But this is undoubtedly a successful experiment in the blockchain field, just like Björk’s experimental music.
2. The album “Animal of Animals” of 50cent has once accepted Bitcoin payments in 2014
50cent, a famous rapper. His album Ambal Ambition, which was released in 2014, had once accepted bitcoin payments, and the bitcoin price was not very high at the time. But the irony is that he filed for bankruptcy protection in 2015.
Why? One reason is that his sex video is fined too much, and the other is because # He directly exchanges those bitcoins to USD in 2014 #
3. Katy Perry shows “Cryptocurrency Manicure” on Instagram
Earlier this year, Katy Perry showed off her latest nail art on Instagram and titled it “$-CrYpTo ClAwS-$”. Five nails are coated with five currencies: Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Monero, and Stellar.
And now the number of red hearts for this picture has reached more than 200,000. In addition, Katy Perry also followed on the Instagram accounts of five encrypted digital currencies: ethereum_updates, litecoinofficial, bit, stellarlumens, and moneroofficial.
But I don’t know if she really buys in these cryptocurrencies, which may be just some publicity. But in any case, this event is undoubtedly a good publicity for the general public.
4. Akon launches Akoin to help African development
Remember Akon who is popular a decade ago? He will launch his cryptocurrency Akoin in Senegal. The currency will be used for his crypto city. This cryptocurrency will be the primary currency for any transaction in Akon Crypto City. And now it is in development, the Senegalese President has assigned the singer 2,000 acres of land for construction. The new city is said to be based on 100% cryptocurrency.
Unlike the singers mentioned above, Akon is putting himself into the blockchain and cryptocurrency business, not just a propagandist.
Whether these singers are for publicity, or for money. All in all, this is an important step in the precipitation of cryptocurrencies into the real world.
The result is affirmative. Because there were already singers involved in the field of cryptocurrency early before Eminem.
