The Facebook timeline is about to get morose , my ally . That is , if you are not stoked for your mom and your cousin and that kid from mellow school day to lead off post alive videos of themselves lip synchronise to “ God ’s Plan ” by Drake .
Facebookannounced on Tuesdaythat it is rolling out a new feature — Lip Sync Live — which lets drug user … lip sync live . The characteristic is n’t groundbreaking . In fact , it ’s ripped straight from Musical.ly , an app democratic with adolescent that lets you upload video selfies lip synchronise to popular songs . The app has reportedly acquired and retained60 million monthly participating drug user , so it ’s not hard to imagine why Facebook might want to roll out a intimately selfsame feature to its own platform that ’s on the face of it beingswiftly dumped by the youths .
But just because the adolescent wish something on one app does n’t have in mind they ’ll come running back to Facebook for something very . It ’s hard to capitalize on a polish that materialise organically in a space loose from the olds .

Like Musical.ly , Facebook is working with artists and music companies to ascertain the song used on Lip Sync Live do n’t lead to copyright violations . If they do , Facebook will mute your video — unless you quarrel the copyright and it ’s approve by Facebook ’s rights manager tool , TechCrunch cover .
Facebook ’s blog Emily Price Post announcing the fresh feature note that songs like “ Welcome to the hobo camp ” by Guns N ’ rosebush , “ Havana ” by Camila Cabello , “ well-chosen ” by Ed Sheeran , and “ God ’s Plan ” by Drake will be available for exploiter to imposingly open up and close their mouths to .

With the success of Musical.ly , it ’s clear that this is a feature article the people ( read : the teens ) want . But on Facebook , it ’ll in all likelihood be the feature that push the adolescent away in droves after they see their feeds flooded with parents pretending to rap Drake .
