    The Verge:

    A new feature announced by Instagram today will allow users to add a song on their profile — much like Myspace in the early 2000s.

    The music added to a user’s profile shows up in the bio area, according to screenshots shared by Instagram. A song will be featured on a profile until the user removes or replaces it. But unlike Myspace, songs won’t autoplay — people viewing a profile with a song can play and pause the track.

    I thought I was so cool blasting "Your Sword Versus My Dagger" on my MySpace profile.

    This will be great for bands to give people a taste of their newest singles, as well as for potential fans to get a sense of a new band without having to dig very deep.

    If I wanted to really make it like my old myspace then people accessing my account will have the screamo version of crank dat soulja boy blaring at them.

    Been able to add songs to IG for ages, no? I did for a while, maybe it was just a beta version of it
