Tramp Stamps started getting a lot of attention on TikTok last week, but if you've recently heard their name anywhere on the internet chances are it wasn't in positive light. So who are this band, and why does everyone already hate them?
Tramp Stamps are a pop-punk trio who appear to have started in 2020. They just dropped their very auto-tuned new single "I'd Rather Die" last week and since have received a lot of backlash — initially on TikTok and later on Reddit and Twitter.
