It should be noted that Apple is planning on bringing support for lyrics in Apple Music come iOS 10, but right now it is unclear as to how Apple is getting those lyrics, whether it be that they are aggregating them from other websites, or if they are being provided by the labels themselves, or if they are transcribing them in-house.
It is also unclear as to what the exact role a lyrics curation manager will fulfil at Apple Music, but if anything it does sound like they’re definitely trying to beef up the platform’s features.
