Good and bad of artists appearing on Roblox

5) Charli XCX

CHARLI XCX's music has been categorized as dance-pop, electropop, pop-punk, and alternate pop by music journalists. She had collaborated with Samsung on an experience dubbed Samsung Superstar Galaxy, the latest artist-brand-tech collaboration.

4) Zara Larsson

Zara Larsson Dance Party was a virtual concert. Zara Larsson, a Swedish pop singer, was sponsoring it to advertise the deluxe edition of her latest album, Poster Girl.

The event game began on May 18, 2021, and had a trivia question and a scavenger hunt for players to complete before the start of the performance. On May 21, 2021, the first concert took place.

Zara Larsson used a global chat system to communicate with concertgoers during the pre-show. She dropped an f-bomb in the middle of a conversation about rhubarbs.

The worldwide discussion went unfiltered. Many viewers were taken aback by this, considering profanity is against the platform's Terms of Service.

Larsson apologized after swearing for the second time in the chat. She indicated that she was unaware that her messages were not being filtered. Many then pointed out the flaws and problematic aspects of the platform's censorship.

Warner Music Group and Roblox teams met to record the band's rehearsal to create the event. Tyler and Josh wore costumes and headgear that monitored the band's facial gestures and body motions, making a realistic concert that mirrored the musicians' mobility in the virtual world.
