    Over the past year, Roblox has hosted immersive virtual concerts with artists like Lil Nas X and Twenty One Pilots. Now, the gaming platform is inviting artists to stream entire albums in the metaverse through virtual listening parties.

    For its first-ever listening party, Roblox is teaming with Grammy-nominated musical chameleon Poppy and her record label Sumerian Records to stream her brand-new album Flux in the gaming platform starting today (Sept. 24). Music from the album will be integrated throughout nine popular Roblox games — which collectively boast more than 3 billion lifetime visits — so that fans can listen as they dance in RoBeats, attend Robloxian High School or explore Creatures of Sonaria.

    I don’t understand Roblox, and whenever I think about it, I feel like yelling at clouds. Hopefully, this is a cool thing for some people though.

    The only I think I know about Roblox is that people use it as a euphemism for “kill” on Twitch to avoid ToS violations.

    I had no clue what Roblox was before reading this but it definitely looks like something I would have been into when I was younger.

    Not everything means something, honey Supporter

    It's what kids play these days. Roblox, Minecraft and Youtube Kids are the only apps my daughters use on their ipads anymore. I feel like it's a 6-12 year old thing though. Can't imagine much older kids than that find it interesting.
