A Breakdown of Youtuber Music (The Good, Bad, & Forgotten)

The topic of “YouTuber Music” is played out & simultaneously extremely underrepresented. Although a lot of it is quite bad and overtly goofy, the conversation around the topic always seems to overlook all the legendary stuff, the sideprojects, the trendy subgenres, and the business reasons behind why they were so popular…and why we don't see it as much nowadays. So today I’m talking about all of it (or at least as much as I can think of lmao) Enjoy!

Also, since this is a long list of YouTubers over the years, naturally a handful of the creators in the video have been cancelled and/or are generally bad people. My inclusion of them isn’t a show of support, I’m just trying to be thorough! A lot of early stuff on the platform hasn't aged particularly well, and some of that will inevitably make it's way into this video, but that's just kinda how it goes.
Also, this vid is a little all over the place and personally not quite up to my standards, but I'm releasing it anyways because it's stupid fun & I'm trying to take things less seriously lmao - Regardless, I hope you like it!
