So I've been contemplating wether I should treat this the American way (Guilty til proven innocent) or give the benefit of the doubt to this situation. I mean in all honesty this pisses me off. Tons and tons of crap floating on hypem reaching the top of the popular charts and now we know why. When I first started making this kind of music (electro-house) and was introduced to hypem, I was like "cool! I hope people will like my stuff enough for me to get a top song". But never did it cross my mind to CHEAT! Wtf dudes? Your only fooling yourselves. We all work hard on our music and give a lot of it out for free to gain popularity, fans, etc and then u got the fuck heads who are generating fake accounts. So now we have the actual songs that are pretty dope pushed out of the charts because some asshole used a bot and got 773 favorites..are you serious?? 773?? that's a huge red flag. I'm just rambling cuz I'm pissed about it but mostly because some of u guys accused I dig ur shit so if this is true u guys are fucking lame and if you didn't do it then I apologize if any of this offends you. Its just sad what lengths people would go to get a top song on a website. Like seriously there's no prize no fucking cash reward so why cheat the system?? Your no better than the politicians we complain about who steal money from the citys taxes etc..so below is a quote from the hypem blog with the names of the people who are to said to have cheated the charts..
