Ben Gross, Genius’s Chief Strategy Officer said:

Apple Music is already the official music player on Genius.com. Now, it’s also the official music streaming partner for Verified, and we couldn’t be more excited. We see a bright yellow future where every hit song on Apple Music has a companion Verified episode featuring the lyrics and meaning, straight from the artists themselves. This is the first step towards that reality.
