HitPiece Wants to Make Every Song in the World an Nft. But Artists Aren’t Buying It
HitPiece, a new website trying to position itself as the place to buy music NFTs, has temporarily shuttered its digital doors after a flurry of outrage from artists and labels, who claimed the marketplace was selling their music without permission.
The uproar began Tuesday evening, Feb. 1, especially among independent musicians who realized their songs were being auctioned off on the website. Frustrated social media posts came in from artists like Eve 6, Deerhoof, Sadie Dupuis (of Speedy Ortiz and Sad13), and even Jack Antonoff.
“Any Bleachers NFTs are fake,” Antonoff said.
