Mixtape Monkey is a website that allows music lovers to download mixtapes and music videos from their favorite Hip-Hop/Rap and R&B Artists. Although there are alternative methods to listening to unofficially-released music such as YouTube, SoundCloud, or Spotify local files, I feel that Mixtape Monkey has the potential to be a strong force in the streaming world against competitors like Spotify, Apple Music, and SoundCloud.
The Mixtape Monkey app would allow users to stream their favorite released and unreleased music and receive recommendations for artists and projects that suit their music taste.
