Twitter is set to release their brand new music app that has been in the works for awhile but has been kept secret until now. Ryan Seacrest had a chance to check it out.

It should be interesting to see how it can compete with the likes of larger streaming services such as Pandora or Spotify.
A streaming-only service, it will feature Soundcloud clips you can listen to from within the app and music videos from Vevo, according to AllThingsD. CNET previous reported that the app would be divided into four sections, including “#NowPlaying”, and that a Twitter account would not be necessary to use it.
Look for it to be pushed out this weekend. Via Mashable.
