OSINT de anonymizing a masked musician using metadata and social pivots

April 4, 2026r/osint

In r/osint, a thread explores how to identify an artist behind a stage persona using public metadata, social handles, and pivots through family, friends, and company records, while others push back on the ethics.

There is a Musician/Rapper and you want to find out who they really are
i tried stuff like Google searches, Spotify Song-Informations, some OSINT tools, Music Repertoire-Search (like Metadata of songs with componist, Musician etc.)
You have his/her Artist name, some social media and gaming Names.
If you have their social media look for posts that family members would post.
I would look into the company most rappers have, company info is quite easy to obtain.
