Who says social media is a wormhole? While scrolling through my Twitter feed (@justinsaintil), I came across a gif of two people sending rap lines to each other. I follow some innovative accounts, so on the daily I run through the gambit of seeing the new decentralized technologies, uses for the sexy magic leap, voice platforms, etc — but when I came across a way to send rap lyrics to your friends, I stopped what I was doing and immediately contacted the founders. Like all great things in this world, Rapbits (@spitrapbits) started with students freestyling in their room and has now grown into a beautiful application that allows for users to send bits of music to their friends. I video-conferenced the co-founders, Zuhayeer (@zuhayeer) and Nour (@nour_eldifrawy), to talk about how a midterm procrastination project turned into a dorm room venture, how the bay area mindset has rocked the campus of UC Berkeley, new projects, and much more on this episode of #OnTheSide!
