Extension summary

This is an UNOFFICIAL Genius Search browser extension for Chrome that instantly redirects you to a webpage on the official Genius website that contains annotations for the content you are viewing. The extension is basic and only works for music on Youtube and Soundcloud.

Please note that I do not work for Genius or am affiliated with them in any way. I simply created this to make my life easier. I do not collect any data or anything, and if you do not believe me, then check out the code here https://github.com/stevengalarza/UnofficialGeniusSearch

Look...we can't expect it to be perfect. YouTube titles can get a bit messy. However, this is pretty dang awesome...it has even worked for my own music!
