The artist naming convention also followed a somewhat similar pattern, with names ranging from the normal-sounding “Calvin Mann” to head-scratchers like “Calorie Event,” “Calms Scorching,” and “Calypso Xored.”

    Artist was really dialed in to their audience. Don’t hate. The streamer service is a bot. The ad system is a bot. The payment system is a bot. This man did to others as they did to him.
