#lil trend from the tok app

[dott-fox]

AHH IM LATE TO THE TREND SHUT UP

[blankat]

4 times y/n is late

Larissa Weems x fem!reader

summary: 4 lil' stories (in chronological order) in which y/n is late in different situations.

warnings: fluff, mention of a shapeshifted penis(?)

a/n: i felt like sh!t so i wrote something lmao, also it's not proofread so excuse my mistakes lmao xx

“Fuck Larissa! I’m late!” you hurried out of your shared bedroom, putting on your clothes on the way to the kitchen to fetch some coffee before leaving. Larissa whined, still in your bed, tucked under the warmth of your fluffy blankets. “Hmm, late from where?” she groggily asked, voice just loud enough for you to hear from the kitchen. “From work! God, how did we sleep in?” You asked, rather yourself, than your girlfriend, pouring your coffee into a to-go cup, returning to the bedroom to Larissa. “Wish you could stay home instead. Call in sick, darling.” she grabbed your arm, pulling you down so you were laying on top of her, your faces incredibly close. She grinned and caressed your cheek, planting a little kiss to your nose. “Ha! Says the workaholic!” you laughed, “But seriously, Rissa. I need to go.” You kissed her softly, grabbing your phone, sliding it into your pocket. “Hurry back home, I’ll be so, so lonely without you here.” Larissa pouted and you laughed, letting go of her hand, standing up. “Promise, baby.” you whispered, leaving your girlfriend in the bedroom, heading to work. 

You were sitting in Larissa’s lap in her office, looking out the window, where you saw some Nevermore students with their phones placed against the wall, dancing in front of the device. “What are they even doing?” you furrowed your brows and Larissa just chuckled before squeezing your hands. “A TikTok.” said the headmistress simply.

“Say that again?” you got even more confused, looking at Larissa who couldn’t help but laugh a little again. “Don’t laugh at me, Woman! Elaborate. What is a TokTok? “No, not TokTok. They’re doing a TikTok. It’s a platform where people dance and lip sync to different songs. Or just upload short videos. It can be really fun.” Larissa said confidently, like she’s been on this platform for ages, and somehow you got even more confused. “Wait, do you use this platform? Tik Tok?” you raised your brows, and your girlfriend pulled out her phone, opening the application for you, where the first thing you saw was some guy telling tips on how to propose to your partner. Larissa quickly snatched her phone from your hand, closing the app, her cheeks red as a cherry. “Well, there are some trash videos as well, the algorithm is not working properly sometimes.” she said awkwardly, not even looking at you. “Well I hope you weren’t planning on proposing to me with the help of a TikTok, Larissa.” you grinned and she just raised her eyebrows at you. “Why would I propose to an asshole like you?” “Ouch, I was just trying to be funny, baby. Tell me, do you dance in front of your phone as well?” you smirked. “Hmm, sometimes. When you’re not home and I’m bored.” she smiled and kissed your neck, your eyes widened a bit at her revelation. “God, I am so late to these trends, I start to think I might be old.”

“Late, late, late! We are always late! Just fantastic!” you yelled while frantically packing your suitcase for your 2-week vacation with Larissa, the woman laughing at you from the doorway. “You are the one who doesn’t have their bags packed. Besides, we still have 2 hours until the train leaves.” she walked behind you, wrapping her arms around your waist. “Don’t stress so much, darling. It’ll make you lose your beautiful hair.” “I just want everything to be perfect. It’s been so long that we could enjoy some free time. Just the two of us.” you mumbled as you turned around in her arms, kissing her softly. “I know dearest, I know. But what matters is that we’re finally free. No work, no kids, no annoying colleagues, just us.” Larissa kissed you again, cupping your cheeks, smiling into the kiss. The only thing you need to do this summer is to enjoy Larissa’s presence and have her in all the possible ways you can.

By the time Larissa got home, you were incredibly close to a nervous breakdown on your bathroom floor, staring into nothing. “Darling? I’m home!” You heard Larissa yell for you. Normally, you would greet her with a tight hug and a lovely kiss but this time you weren’t, therefore Larissa knew something was up. “Y/N? Are you alright, baby?” She walked around your shared apartment looking for you. When she spotted you in the bathroom, sitting on the floor, she gave you a worried look. Looking around the room, she quickly realized you were sick, as she noticed the puke in your hair and in the toilet as well. “Y/N, are you sick? Where does it hurt?” She carefully sat down next to you, flushing the toilet and tying up your hair, running  a hand down your back to offer you some comfort. “Lar- Larissa?” you mumbled groggily, almost puking again from the taste in your mouth. “Yes, darling? It’s okay, let it out. Did you eat something bad?” your fiancée asked with worry in her voice. “N-no Larissa, I’m-” you swallowed, looking at her with teary eyes. “Shhh, It’s okay, I know you hate throwing up. I will clear out the fridge first thing tomorrow, to prevent you from eating anything bad again.

“No, Larissa, there’s no need fo-” “No, you just lay down, and I’ll do-” “Larissa I’m late.” you whispered, without the usual wrath in your voice. Larissa raised her eyebrows. “Late to what, darling?” she caressed your arm, not really understanding what you wanted to say. “No, I’m- My period. I was supposed to get my period 2 weeks ago.” your voice has never been this quiet. “W-what?” Larissa’s hand rested on your cheek, slowly caressing it while she tried to process the information. “I-uhm, do you rem-remember when we, we, uhm a few months ago you shape- uhm, shapeshifted-” you stuttered and felt like throwing up again. “Yes, yes I do. Have you taken any tests yet?” she asked softly, not releasing your cheek. “N-no, I wasn’t sure I could do it alone.” you said quietly, a silent tear running down your cheek. “Okay. Let’s get you cleaned up, and then we’ll take a few tests, okay baby?” Larissa was so gentle with you, you could cry.

After Larissa helped you shower, you brushed your teeth while she got a few pregnancy tests, handing you them and waiting at the other side of the door. After about 30 minutes, which felt like 3 hours, you opened the bathroom door. Larissa stood up immediately, rushing over to you, asking you silently. “Well, if these gadgets are trustworthy, we’re going to be mommies.” you smiled fondly at Larissa, tears streaming down your face. She immediately wrapped her arms around you, kissing all over your face, planting a final long kiss onto your lips. “Oh my darling, Y/N, I love you more than anything and I am so excited to begin this journey with you.”

as Saturn gets ready for his next voyage...

Saturn highway by @/taudalpoi on IG. All of their work is exquisite

Everything feels like it'll be exponentially wired. Like an avalanche of karma has been inquired in us to understand our purpose.

Saturn entering Aquarius March of 2020:

We saw an exponential growth of occult interest and people becoming more spiritually aware. Psychic awareness kicked up to speed for the collective conscious and we have been isolated but online. Whether people were aware or not, we were entering a mental conditioning of becoming more self aware with ourselves, or the problems that have been silent for too long.

I downloaded TikTok (I felt like everyone did also), and that made connecting with others on a social media platform viable than any other platforms. This was also the beginning stage of changing how we think, in ways we think of how we get our news. People like to rely on Tik Tok for "real" news, as public news does not address what we are really needing to take care of in our society. News does play repetitive stories and I end up listening in a lil' anyways because my parents blast it in the living room. Mostly by my father. But the news is sadistic to say the least. But we can't ignore the fact that 'doom-scrolling' has its place on the app, and that it changes our outlook on ourselves and the way we go about things through trends that come and go quick. An example of this coming-and-going are the articles saying how much TikTok decreases your attention span.

Fast forward to 2022-now, we now see how social media has effected us. Sayings such as "chronically online" or my fave "touch some grass" have been going around, subjecting to the fact that some people have not gotten out of the habit of consoling the internet for every situation to play out in the way they have seen it through the screens. People have been reaching so hard to find a problem where there isn't, and it can be annoying. But it is the internet, we can thank the fact that everything is accessible now. Everyone's opinion feels like a righteous one, and people batter at the cages.

And a big honorable mention to the most riveting example of Saturn in Aquarius issssssssssss:

online classes! remotely working from home! and creating a generation of children who will have to deal with the beginning of a new era in technological changes! such as VR and AI (Pluto will have so much fun with this)

As Saturn goes into Pisces on March 7th 2023:

We are forced mentally to console with ourselves. take it as a spiritual incubation. We are still free to go outside of ourselves and create relationships, but mentally we will be swimming in these unconscious waters where we will see the repercussions of the actions we have taken. For ourselves, and others, we haven't been able to take the time to see who we are. WHY are we here?

WHAT WAS THE REASONNJNJN

I've had Cardi B saying this in my head since pisces season started, and I want to talk more about that in my next post about the season of pisces.

Saturn is the antithesis of letting you go short handed. It wants you to know the karma of your actions, and performs it from the people around you. Relationships will be a real kicker during this transit, we'll see why we keep holding on to certain people for god knows why (oh thank you Saturn for revealing that to me in a certain situation, now I'll just go figure myself out during this transit so I don't waste time crying over people that lacked care for me).

This will seem like a ruthless, scary, and what feels like a punishing time at first, but it's really not. I feel like this is more of a time to relinquish towards a womb-like state, and to fully master ourselves before trying to figure out everyone else. When was the lat time we thought for ourselves? Sure, there's work to be done and bills to pay. But what is happening is far greater than us and we will be seeing that through our creativity. What is something you've been wanting to manifest for a while? Whether you've thought it to be a silly nothing, or your ideal life, there is a reason for such a thought to be instilled. Perhaps before you were born, a soul transcendence took place to reach a higher plan to take the place of the last journey. Never give up on your dreams ✨♓️🪐

[cryptidunknown]

So today I had to explain to my parents what TikTok was and in doing so I realized that I actually really hate tiktok and only kept it bc it was a trend and now I’ve deleted tiktok and idk what to do with my life

[diavolosthots]

hi lovely! hope ur doing well 💕💕 so excited that ur requests are open AHH!!!

but how would the brothers react to MC denying their kisses as a lil prank to see their reaction? [got inspo from this tik tok https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMePw8TLe/ if you wanna see] I imagined some of them would be a bit desperate and thirsty like the guy in the vid hehe.. not sure if u done the idea before but I thought it'd be fun!!

this is my first request for anything here so I hope I did it right ahh love ur writing btw and hope u have fun with ur requests!! 🥳🥳

I cannot put into words how much I absolutely despise that tiktok trend and I'd slap a bitch if they tried that on me. But anyway welcome to the blog! 🎉

Warning: slight NSFW

THE BROTHERS reacting to MC denying them a kiss for a tiktok prank

Lucifer:

First of all, he despises that app with a passion and he despises it even more ever since you made it a point to pull him into these ‘trends’. Do you think he has time for this? The only trend he somewhat enjoyed was the iced coffee one. You know, where they make that foamy milk or whatever it was, and only because he loves coffee. Anyway, the minute you lean in to kiss him, he’s ready. Talkin’ about hands tightly on your hips, pulling you closer, ready to meet those cute little puckers and then-- nope. Absolutely not. 

“You have two seconds to come over here and finish what you started and if you even think of posting that video I’m not only taking your phone privileges, but I most certainly will take your orgasm privileges.” 

Mammon:

He’s a sucker for kisses. He’s also a sucker for tiktok, but he’s mainly on car tiktok and *gasp* shocker, baking tiktok! That’s right, he finds baking videos to be super interesting which is both weird and kind of cool; maybe he’ll pick up a few recipes and make them for you! Anyway, he’s about as excited as a puppy when you come over to kiss him. “Hell yeah babe, come here so I ca-- HEY!” and then you don’t ??? What kind of bullshit??? 

“MC come back! Get yer ass back here!!” 

Leviathan:

This boy daydreams about you 24/7 and he feels so lucky every time he has the chance to talk to you, to hold you, and especially to kiss you. He gets super flustered every time, too, and he does these silly tiktok trends with you because they make you happy. Secretly, he hates them and he wishes they’d just stay between you and him but he also doesn’t want to dictate your life. Anyway, when it looks like you lean in to kiss him, he’s already flustered as all hell and his eyes are squeezed shut tightly, awaiting impact. And then it never happened. And he’s even more flustered and embarrassed now, especially since you’re laughing. 

“Oh… heh… of course you wouldn’t… my mistake.” 

Satan: 

Satan is in the same boat as Lucifer except that he will search tiktok for cute cat videos and cute cat videos only. He’s completely oblivious to these trends because he could honestly care less. He’s done the savage one with you before and only because your ass looked mighty fine in it, that’s it. However, he watched you set up your phone before you came over to him and thus he knows this is some type of prank. So, when you lean in to kiss him, he’s actually the one pulling away with a grin and pushing you away. 

“Can’t prank the prankster, kitten.” 

Asmodeus:

Oh he loves that app! He’s done about every major trend on that stupid app and his account has a couple million followers. It’s both sad and fascinating how obsessed he is with those videos, but hey, at least someone other than the people he already knows can stroke his ego. Anyway, he’s already seen this trend and he’s waiting for you to pull it on him, but before you could even lean in he’s already laughing like crazy, leaving you confused. He ends up stealing a kiss anyway before moving over to your phone and waving into the camera. 

“Oh dear… did you mean to post this? We should do one for my account, too!” 

Beelzebub:

Bless his soul. He only recently discovered food tiktok and he swipes away as soon as he sees a video that isn’t food related. Looked like a chocolate covered strawberry, is actually a kissing exercise = swipe! Honestly it’s precious how he’ll spend hours on there. Sometimes he goes onto the workout part of tiktok too and does some new workout routines but it’s mainly just food so Beel didn’t see it coming when you pulled the prank on him. As a matter of fact, he’s rather hurt when you pull away from the kiss and a big pouty lip will form. 

“I won’t force you… but I was really looking forward to that. Can I have one?” 

Belphegor:

You think this demon has time for tiktok when his sleep routine is at stake? He hears you scroll through the videos sometimes but he could honestly care less about all of that. Every once in a blue moon he’ll ask you to pull up some cute puppy videos but even that is rare. Anyway, when you lean in to kiss him, he has already gotten his eyes closed and is awaiting the sweetness that is your lips. And then they never come. And then he sees the phone in his face and he gets mad, taking it from you and throwing it across the room before pulling you on top of him. 

“I knew there was a reason I hated that stupid thing. Kiss me or that phone will stay broken.”

Tik Tok, a new way to promote music

A few years ago, when I was like 12 or 13, I remember that some of the only ways to discover new music were to deeply explore YouTube, watch W9 during all the evening or just listen to the radio for a big amount of time.  But I recently noticed that I don’t really do that anymore so how are my playlists still overflowing with new musical discoveries?

Tik Tok, obviously. I won’t say that Tik Tok is the only way today to discover new music because you can have recommendations from friends, become a fan of the soundtrack of a movie you recently watched, or still hear music somewhere during a stroll or on the radio and immediately add it to your playlist. But in my case, and probably a lot of people’s cases, Tik Tok has a great impact on our way to listen to music and some artists understood that quickly.

Tik Tok now counts more than a billion users which makes it a platform used by a large diversity of people and if you spent a lot of time scrolling on the app, you should have noticed that there is the number of celebrities promoting their new albums on Tik Tok is increasing. Some popular music artists have been posting videos there for a long time like Lil Nas X, Dojo Cat, Jason Derulo…

The artist I want to focus on today is Dojo Cat. She released her third album “Planet Her” in 2021 and generated a lot of reactions.

Indeed, Dojo Cat has been posting videos of her with her songs and was rapidly followed by a lot of content creators who created some trends and dances on her music as they already did with “Say So” as an example. But after a few days, some users had noticed that Dojo Cat used some of the videos posted on her songs as her album Spotify loops. We can all imagine that this action was a marketing strategy and that a lot of people went streaming her songs on Spotify to take a look at the loops but did it have a great impact on Dojo Cat’s streaming records? Do artists on Tik Tok have a closer relationship to their fans? Do they achieve to reach more people with their videos with the Tik Tok algorithm? Is this promotion method better working?

[tanzaniiite]

Hello! Can I request headcanons for the Tik tok trend, Where you and your s/o are holding hands and you move your hand away? If you get what I mean. For Kuroo, Oikawa, Akaashi and Suga? Pretty Please with a cherry on top!

“HOLDING HANDS BUT YOU MOVE AWAY” TREND

w/ kuroo, oikawa, akaashi & sugawara

requests: OPEN

warnings: none!

this was so fun to write! thanks for the request! 🥰 sorry for the hiatus, i just needed a break from all social media for a bit

i peg kuroo as being a pretty chill guy so i don’t see him getting so bent out of shape if you move your hand away from his

but,, this particular day he was feeling needy™️

y’all were driving to the mall cause he needed new sneakers and you wanted to get some new clothes

everything was chill, he was driving with one hand and holding yours with the other

you wanted to get something from your bag but this dude wouldn’t let your hand go

you look at him and he has that shit eating grin on his face eyes still on the road ofc

tbh you couldn’t tell if he was being affectionate or a lil shit

then you remember that there was this trend that was very similar to this situation, so you whip out your phone and start recording

you try to pull your hand away but this dude just tightens his grip

“ow! dude, that hurts”

“you shouldn’t be trying to leave me princess”

you are flabbergasted to say the least

you try again and he lets you get away but he’s frowning a bit

laughing at his face you go to reach for his hand again but he balls his hand INTO A FIST

he’s just as petty as you are, it’s ridiculous

“um excuse me sir? what the fuck?”

kuroo glances at you before turning back to the road

“you didn’t want to love me then, why do you want to love me now?”

he has rendered you… speechless

“…LOVE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT”

“UH YES IT DOES”

screaming match in the car, just couple things 😌💕🥰💫🥺😍✨

*sighs* he’s dramatic about it as always

he’s walking you to class after lunch, with his hands intertwined with yours

oikawa is ranting about how mean iwaizumi is to him and how mattsun & makki don’t respect him

you’re like half listening bc it’s the same thing everyday

same story, different day

he can tell your not listening 100% and it makes him a bit pouty

but then he remembers a trend he saw the other day

imma have to uno reverse this again, sorry

oikawa just strikes me as the type to always be on tik tok and know every trend that’s on the app

and you being his girlfriend have to be apart of his antics

so he continues talking but he pulls his hand away from your yours

you look confused for a second bc y’all aren’t even close to your classroom yet

as he continues to talk you’re still not listening, you reach for his hand–

but he moves it to run his fingers through his hair

this continues for a while and now you’re getting annoyed

“hey, are you mad at me or something?”

“of course not, why?”

this asshole

in his head, he‘s literally having the time of his life. you wanting his affections?? and it’s not the other way around??? mwah 👌🏽

“then let me hold your hand”

oikawa smirks, “only if you beg~”

…

when i say you walk away soo fast pfttt 🏃🏽‍♀️💨

“w-wait baby i was joking! come back!”

ah. the love of my life

like i’ve stated before, akaashi isn’t really up to date with his generation

he’s an old soul, leave him alone 😤

anywhooo y’all were at his house watching a movie

you initially wanted to cuddle but his family was home and he wasn’t comfortable so you guys settled for the next best thing: holding hands

for some reason, keiji was engrossed with the movie so he wasn’t really paying attention to you

which makes sense but that’s not the point

so you’re on your phone scrolling through tik tok bc the movie doesn’t interest you. and well would you look at that, a couple trend :D

you decide to do said trend, pressing record and pulling your hand away from akaashi

he doesn’t look at you but his hand reaches for yours again

you wait for like 5 secs before pulling away again. now keiji’s eyebrows are furrowed and he glances you before grabbing your hand once again

it’s so hard to not laugh bc his hand is gripping yours a bit tighter than normal. also you can tell he’s genuinely confused bc of the pout on his lips

you pull again one final time and he turns to face you directly

he’s full on pouting now, “love, what’s wrong?”

he’s perfect,, perfect i tell you

“nothing” you chirp, smiling a bit

the gears are spinning, he’s so confused

“… then why do you keep pulling away? are my hands sweaty?”

at this point you can’t hold in your laughter

keiji is just staring at you while you laugh at his confusion

“babe, it’s a trend. i thought bokuto made you download tik tok, don’t you use it?”

akaashi is still albeit confused but he holds your hand before answering you

“no, it’s a waste of time. please let me hold your hand now”

ahhh my first time writing for suga, i hope i do him justice 😔👊🏽

alright so basically you two are on a date uwu

you guys went to a café and now your just talking a walk around the area. suga is holding your hand, swinging them back and forth slightly

ugh he’s such a babe

n e ways as much as you love suga’s affections, it wouldn’t be out of character for you to mess w/ him bc you love to do so

but you have to be sneaky with it, you can’t just whip out your phone bc and start recording

no, you have to ease into it

so you take out your phone and suga’s attention is already on you. you open the camera and smile at him

“baby, can we take a picture?”

suga smiles back at you, “of course!”

and so, you take a few pictures. as you pretend to look at the pics, suga goes back to looking at his surroundings

now you press record, and pull your hand away

suga looks at you to see if anything is wrong, but doesn’t say anything

after a few seconds he reaches for you again and you pull away again, trying not to laugh

koshi is just as confused as akaashi but a tad bit annoyed

“are you okay?”

“mhm, why?”

he says nothing and just puts his hands in his jacket pockets awkwardly. aw he’s pouting a bit, he just wants to love you

but he doesn’t attempt to grab you hand again

you end the recording and hold on to his arm, “baby what’s wrong?”

“nothing”

“koshi~”

suga blushes a bit, he can’t help it. he likes the way you say his name and he wears his heart on his sleeve 🥺

“i.. *sigh* can i hold your hand without you pulling away?”

you grin, “of course you can, it was just a trend babe”

koshi just blinks at you, looking offended asf

“y/n, that’s so rude”

✎ Naruto x types of Tik Tokers

A/N: My friend told me to write the Naruto Characters as types of TikTokers so here we go ;-; I kinda fuck w it tbh Requests and ships are open! *send an ask of who I should do next!*

Naruto Uzumaki

Naruto is the god of gen z humour and that is on periodt

He would make the most pointless fucking videos ever and people (including yours truly) would laugh their ass off

Like a video of his toe with the disco lights filter and then the last second is a picture of a frog with way too many saturated filters and a random word like ‘ramen’

And it gets 2 million likes

He also rates ramen on it and will get in heated debates with people over it

Will probably post a vid of a new justu he learned and then Tsunade would have to force him to delete it because it could give enemies an advantage if they see his skills

Breaks his phone more than 200 times trying to use his Rasengan as a Tik Tok transition

Def has a series called “roasting people in the Leaf village”

“Next is Kiba, yah I know what you’re thinking and yes, he smells like dog and bonus! He acts like one too!”

“Then we have Lee, aka bushy brow. I think this picture of him speaks for itself”

Ends up getting chased by other villagers w pitchforks after he drops a roast video

Can’t learn tiktok dances for shit but will have the audios playing over eachother in his head at 3x speed when he trains

Will take videos of Kakashi bc the girls love it and it always gets him on the fyp

Has a series called “pt _ of trying to see what’s under Kakashis mask”

He knows all the trends and memes

Tbh he applies more effort into tiktok than his own life

Has a shit load of followers (1 mil+) and never lets anyone forget it

also he’s such a barb.. like it’s unreal

Raps Nicki songs and films it in three times speed for the British gurl effect

Shikamaru Nara

Probably has some sort of like reaction acc and says he got the app as a joke

Meanwhile he really enjoys it like he spends a good chunk of his day on it

Likes duetting videos from the weird side of tiktok with sarcastic remarks or a reaction pic

Trolls the shit out of any leaf shinobi on the app

Like he will duet their videos and just embarrass the shit out of them

Whether it’s roasting them, exposing them or whatever

He has to make constant new accounts bc they always block him or he gets banned

which is such a drag but it’s also worth it bc he gets a kick out of being a troll

Always on the weird side of tiktok

Anything he comments will be a top comment w a good couple hundred likes

Spends most a lot of time looking at Temaris TikToks bc she’s cute

Like Naruto, he is up to date w all the memes and trends — in fact he probably starts some

But never gets cred for it bc he constantly needs to make new accs

Literally his usernames are just Shikamaru1, Shikamaru2, Shikamaru3 and so on for each acc he has to make

Other than troll posts, he makes an occasional rant post about his mom or any shinobi that tells him to do work

And the comments will all be like “yes unmotivated king!” “Give us nothing!” “And that’s on being lazy”

Has dedicated followers that constantly follow his new accs

on the fyp a lottt which is kinda weird but makes sense.. I mean he’s smart enough to figure out TikToks algorithm

Sasuke Uchiha

I think we all seen this coming..

Maybe I’m a bit overboard but this is supposed to be funny

So here we go: HES A FUCKING EBOY

LIKE BDBDJSJSJS

Stop and like I picture him doin those tiktok transitions to a lil peep song and he has like 39 rings on his fingers

Gets trolled non stop by Shika, Kiba and Naruto

But at the end of the day ALL and I mean ALL the females on tiktok are drooling over him

Thinks he’s being so deep and edgy but it’s low key cringe

Everyone ignores that factor tho bc mans is hot

Let’s Shikamaru and naruto troll him bc his fan army will literally attack them

Wears chains, hella rings, just all the eboy drip

Girls think he’s a vampire and it makes their thirst even stronger ( mine too!! :* I am a whore afterall <3)

Does TikToks to Lana Del Rey songs

Will never ever ever ever post a tiktok dance, but he secretly knows all of them

Doesn’t keep up w the trends too much aside from the dances

tbh like he mostly just hops on to make a weird sad grungey video and then leaves

It drives naruto and kiba up the wall at how famous he is like he is always a million followers ahead of Naruto

And he doesn’t even try like wtf

His captions are always like: ☠️⚡️⛓🗡

Constantly on the fyp

Girls love how he gives them 0 attention, like he never responds to / likes comments, never duets videos, never goes live

But he still has a huge ass following

So many fan girls it’s unreal and like he’s so fucking mean to them but they still go back for more

It’s like they enjoy it!! Ik I do

[that-was-anticlimactic]

[ID: each of the eight images are screenshots of tags on this post. they read as follows:

“#said better than i ever could #not to mention the saturation of certain genres with ‘made for tiktok’ songs”

“#love it when people say shit like this #its a very concise way of putting it and describes quite a lot of the weird watering down culture tiktok has #tbh i feel so bad for people like mitski and machine girl fans #i don't use tiktok often but god that association part is heavily Felt #along with the want to discuss these things with others being shot down #like i want to have discussions about these things with people without it immediately delving into #'oh funny/weird thing from tiktok haha' #it feels like shallow and soulless”

“#love this post #you get it #you fucking get it and I feel so much less insane now #do you know how hard its been convincing my friend whos always on tik tok Ween isnt a joke meme band? #they discredit so many artists cuz of that stupid app”

“#shit's real #while i feel there are always different levels of enjoying and connecting with art/music there's something really uniquely bad about the #way that tiktok culture just tends to bulldoze any sort of perception of music #by complete memeification and turning everything into a fad that's meant to be consumed as the flavor of the month #and the way it just leaks out and affects perception in such a rough way #i remember what it did to black dresses i remember what it did to breakcore #i remember what it did to colin stetson #i remember what it did to goth #(goth i cant say for sure if it was 100% tiktok that mangled goth image but it certainly helped) #but yea it's like. rough for sure #the effect it has on music is similar to it being pasted in advertisement over and over #and having it just plunged down your throat where it loses the actual meaning and then #takes on a new franken-form that is just a far-cry pastiche #of what it actually was in the first place”

“#ill be honest and say its been v hard mentioning my fav artist #just the fear of being associated with something negative i have no clue about #its a lil upsetting yknow !!”

“#i cant say i like mother mother bc people will associate it with ‘nonbinary tiktok cringe’ whatever the fuck that means #i feel guilty and weird when i put songs on playlists that were at some point a tiktok meme or trend #THE OPENONG TO SERIAL EXPERIMENTS LAIN WAS ONE FOR GODS SAKE #like ‘pov i look down at you while youre in my lap’ kill me kill me kill me kill me #PLUS BC OF THIS RECOMMENDATIOMS ARE FUCKING RUINED ON STUFF LIKE SPOTIFT #like oh u like this niche song? too bad it was a tiktok trend so all of the recs are just OTHER tiktok trends instead of music like this #aaaggGHhagaha #good post op”

“#i could go on for HOURS abt the things i love that tiktok culture ruined #both in music AND shows.... #i hate it when ppl say it’s ‘not that deep’ cause it is! it would be one thing if it became like a regular popular #but once something becomes tiktok popular it’s fucking ruined #shit tiktok fame literally caused black dresses to break up #and mitski hates the image that she’s become because of tiktok fame”

“#excellent post sara fr #there’s a sort of culture thats part of big social media like tiktok and twitter #where the biggest impact youre gonna make is to joke about semi popular stuff that eventually exposes more people to it #so theyre only gonna remember it for the joke #its part of the reason why social media stuff is becoming more and more ephemeral #the joke only lasts for so long until its not funny anymore #idk i brought up talking heads with a friend over lunch once and they didnt know what i was talking about #until i brought up the funny david byrne dance in Once In A Lifetime #they didnt give a shit about the sing but haha look at david byrne what a mad lad”. /End ID.]

the existence of tiktok has made me genuinely afraid to share any obscure music i like with an untouched small close-knit subcultural following in fear that it will become basically colonized, turned into a fad, left as a former shell of itself, and turned into a mere talking point for demographics and groups to be associated with. with tiktok you can’t talk about the music in itself or find anyone who genuinely likes it after going out of their way to look for something good and was rewarded for their willingness to go into deep cuts (and thus have respect for it). tiktok forces it down the throats of people who would never go out of their way to do that because they don’t care. it turns that artist and the entire subculture they once had into a zombie. now they’re only associated with that one tiktok meme, or immediately brushed off because people already heard of them so much and got sick. the small, cozy, and informed following who you can have enriching conversations with about the band and their music is gone. you can’t talk about the music for its own sake anymore because it essentially symbolizes something entirely unrelated to what it actually is and who made it. it kills integrity of the music and the artists who don’t purposefully capitalize off of it. tiktok mass destroys things and turns them into a cultural joke because everything on there is about image and trends instead of genuine discussion and enjoyment about a thing in itself (how can you even have one on that app anyway). nothing is sacred anymore with that app’s existence.

and i’m not saying this because “i hate things that are popular and i think i’m better”, because i’m not. i honestly don’t care what happens on tiktok or what’s popular as long as it doesn’t come close to the untouched things with cult followings i genuinely enjoy, because it winds up invading and destroying that ecosystem. i don’t even have tiktok but i can feel the cultural effects that it has from my own little corner. i’m saying this because tiktok takes the more obscure things with their own niche people enjoy in their own little recesses and destroys their integrity by appropriating them and i can’t find anyone to have a genuine discussion about with anymore who also enjoys it as much as i do for what it literally is (which previously would be extremely easy. you could always assume someone who said they liked an artist knew even more about them than you did! maybe they know the ins and outs of their discography, went to a live show, have insider information, or just have a very personal experience with the band). i can no longer gleefully introduce it to someone because they’ve already heard of it and associate it with something else instead of on its own terms, maybe even disliking it merely because of what it is artificially associated with. i don’t want to be automatically associated with something or someone i never heard of because i like something that tiktok decided to take over and the people who like it fall into such and such a category. i never agreed to be a part of this.

Buckle up y’all, it’s about to get a little wild down there!

Here is my entire brain contents on adderall splattered on a page with words.

Take your time, enjoy yourself.

And as always, Stay safe out here in these streets.

When you buy a few adderall from your drug dealer which in all fairness you should be on for your ever deteriorating mental health but is sadly cursed to be a Born And Raised American and if your reading this...well..please god help! We are not okay! I can’t keep living like this!!)...... was 9 pm on a Wednesday night and now I am awake at 7 am it’s now Thursday morning and i have had about two breakthroughs on past trauma and a very mild breakdown on current life decisions and a few past ones as well.

(Spoiler: I ended up spending all Thursday on drafting this.)

Anyways, allow us to take a kinda very lengthy, but kinda funny trip if you have a dark sense of humor. Deep dive into my ever growing theory about how TIK-TOK (and a combination of MANY platforms, but I mainly reference TIK-TOK culture.) seems to have gotten so big and so ingrained into such a large population of people and their culture, that the app (s) seemingly influence an ever and always growing global scale of millions and millions of people. Just by hiding in plain sight.

There are varying ages among the app(s) of course but seem to have a more direct core focus on the younger generations of people. So as a general age estimate for most of the references you can use this as a base guideline to apply for the references.(Ages 10 to about roughly 21 years old for main focus)

Most apps have been fined tuned on such a scale, that they can even refine down to individual age groups and encourage or completely discourage certain groups of people on their platforms. This becomes it’s whole theory on how they can use layouts, and certain features to drive away or draw in whatever age groups or types of people they may need or want to influence.

Think about how Facebook has kind of become known in mainstream as a platform for moms and aunts to keep in touch, even in animated media like “FamilyGuy” who pushes the jokes about Facebook being for old people. (I am a hardcore FG fan and can tell you there are defiantly a few if not a lot of episodes across multiple seasons with short skits and jokes about Facebook being for lonely housewives.etc.etc. I don’t have the exact lil time stamps extra stuff. Just Trust me.)

Instagram, when compared. Seems far more catered towards large masses of young teenagers. Keeping clean and easy to use layouts helps encourage younger audiences, and doesn’t require too much effort. Using basic shapes and taking up large screen space, helps keep the viewer focused on one thing at a time on the feed. Without them even noticing.

It’s all so easy even a 13 year old could do it! Sometimes even going as far to working with other affiliate companies within their web in exchange for some sort of value. Probably money. Or data, to help aid them in whatever they need. While also keeping the connections between the companies active, and as a means to really help bail you out of trouble if it arises.

It’s well known and makes sense to say that many studies suggest that the younger the audience is, the easier it is to manipulate their choices and persuade their life decisions;with or without sole intent on some sort of personal gain/etc. Mostly likely, with little to no regard of the consequences it may have on the people that they purposefully and wrongfully manipulated.

With how big social media has gotten the right powerful people can very quickly and very easily circulate very specific and secretly tailored trends and behaviors to help manipulate on such a massive scale. With little to no restrictions or actual punishments that could affect them.

“Viral” videos seem to go viral in a matter of as little as 24 hours. Seemingly as if overnight. It’s the algorithm fairy! With just a few clicks and taps, they can customize what millions and millions of followers have exposure to and what they are trying to push out onto the audiences. As a result of doing ALL of this they can control what people buy and how much or how fast for example,what people boycott and for how long, normalizing dangerous policies or powerful people/companies, what people protest about, and a million more tiny micro things.

Untimely, In the end all of this to use their positions and unfairly influence wealth or other major important systems of the world in their favor.

When the planted material is out and has been made public, the audience is going to very casually and 99% of the time absorb it without even knowing it. Then they unknowingly help to pollinate whatever the message/trend/action is that is being pushed by the influencers. With the help of handy tracking data and many other privacy invading tactics I’m sure. Most of which is located somewhere deep in those digital 8 pages of terms and conditions. Yep all the tiny writing. Yeah, that stupid thing no one reads. Before you’ve even had time to begin to put effort into noticing, you are now being spoon fed planted controlled content. Over time the content begins multiplying across multiple sites and spreading just like a nasty little viral virus. With little to no active effort from the people in charge. So in the end, their hands come out clean.

This is just what they want, using this method the trend is trickling down from the influencers/decoys they pay/bribe/etc. Now the influencers push the content they are given to their audience. Typically following a well tailored set of instructions on what to do,and when to do it etc. the content then trickles down to their loyal followers who help spread the virus to even the smallest follower bases on the most remote accounts on TIK-TOK. Using hashtags,trending original audio from the influencers and a whole bucket of other planted assets that work smoothly and flawlessly to give the illusion that everything is fine and you are okay this is ALL totally normal!

Most planted content is meant to look completely random, but would likely line up with other various videos/content and etc. The patterns would probably be hard if not nearly impossible to identify without having deep inside knowledge on what is REALLY going on behind the scenes.

Content has to be made quickly, it’s such a large scale of people. It happens so quickly that trends pop up overnight only to fade out of existence in less than 48 hours sometimes. The best way to do this, develop an app to limit videos durations. Limiting it to no more than a minute, can be plenty of time but not TOO much time to get something across. You become so desensitized to how rapidly changing your content is. The less time you have to think, the less their chances are of getting caught. What was trending earlier in the week, may complete a hypothetically short cycle and be recycled back by Saturday. It will be stored, analyzed and then rebranded or disguised as another trend for a later date or specific trigger event. To save costs of course.

Let’s talk Controlled “decoy” celebrities. Often good looking people or couples, who can sometimes come with talents and other varying small contributions to help boost credibility of their trust worthiness to their viewers.

These are the people that seem to have sprung up from no where, not a lot of history on trying to be on the internet or trying to go viral. They seem to have gained such a large following over a seemingly short amount of time. For content that doesn’t really seem to be super extraordinarily special. Their content seems to go through a big boom, taking up X amount of % of specific groups for blah blah amount of time.

They typically die down, and will fulfill their contract to whom ever in return for financial or just general self gain reasons. The contracts are thick, they would cover ever single thing. No loophole is left open, it’s been polished and spit shined until it passes through an absurd amount lawyers and businessmen. To the point of no return. Finally, likely less thick but still as thick as a small textbook, and purposefully making sure to make no sense to anyone but probably a trained professional lawyer, who even then would be sorta impressed at the contract in terms of waterproofing.

Influencers can push similar or different hidden messages/trends/policies at the same time or at specifically calculated time slots. Many different influencers/decoys are top of the FYP(For you Pages). Thanks to the controlled algorithm, of course. With hardly a few words the flow of content is whisked away; Into whatever way it’s needed to benefit the higher ups that is.(Gee it kinda sounds like we are a bad game of Sims.)

The younger people/generations are far more accepting and willing to follow ideas/thoughts/actions/etc. With little to no life experience or proper examples in life to compare the information/actions/etc to. They are basically a blank slate, unknowingly being manipulated into whatever is needed of bigger people. This can be useful though, it helps reduce the chances of the younger people being able to correctly identify and possibly rebel against what could have been picked up,through a planted video on their FYP.

Across the internet TIK-TOK videos are globally redistributed to other globally active social media sites which are but not limited to; instagram,YouTube,Facebook,etc.

Which MORE THAN likely, as you could guess would be an affiliate along side TIK-TOK or other various places or people. I can assure you, if you think there is no way that all the sites could possibly be doing the same thing or if not just slightly altered different versions. Then I envy your ignorance and ability to escape from this crazy reality.

To be simple a lot of social media apps are now owned by the same company or companies. Here they are creating a monopoly on the social media apps, and markets, it makes it easier to collect as much data and spread as much data as they can.

How often do you use the “sign in using Gmail” button located on almost every site when making new accounts for stuff with no second thought? Yeah, me too bud.

Let’s say even If you do manage to gather some small evidence against some part of the system in place. It would be enough to get the proper people looking into it. You start speaking out about the sites or suspicious practices/trends/behavior, you are more than likely going to end up hidden out of that controlled algorithm. They would very likely leave little wiggle room for incidents like this to even begin to occur. The handy algorithm tool keeps lots of people from investigating and digging into things that could disrupt or foil their plans. They stop letting your content “circulate” and it becomes a dead page. No views means no exposure and that ends with not being able to speak out against the big companies and expose them because you’ve been silenced. Good luck finding a sit that’s not affiliated it some way shape or form. It’s a trap. They are everywhere and in everything now.

Sometimes, a more extreme and “directly” indirect way of silencing people who may have, somehow become big enough to expose their big plans and is more of an immediate threat to their operations. Threatening decoy covers or possibly exposing illegal money laundering type of danger. It never seems to fail that they always turn to suspending accounts on the people who may have slipped through their algorithm for a while and remained active for X amount of time before they caught it. However, they always seem to find you. No matter what you do, Or how carefully you think you hide your IP addresses. (Bad news, I can assure you they have pleasant connections into the uhh...internet providers. Yikes.Sorry man.)

Its been months but suddenly out of the blue, the account may become kinda “Indefinably “suspended pending “investigation about multiple community guideline violation reports.” Or some other vague and general terms. To avoid getting caught up in having to admit what is going on. They will always try to link you onto a site with many hyperlinks with a page filled with tiny tiny terms and conditions about their policies. Purposefully meant to be long,uncomfortable to read, and packed with a significant amount of large and very fancy words in the ultimate goal to have you groan annoyingly; and just check the accept button. Ignoring the 8 pages of long boring script designed purposefully in a way to have you unknowingly and secretly free the company of all responsibilities for what they may do to you/with your information is one way they win. Removing any and probably all if not most, any chance you may have had to cause them any legal problems in the future for their actions.

Following the banning incident it’s always under a similar narrative of a technical “difficulty” on their servers end or a super “weird” glitch that affected enough people to seem believable. There is a weird official post by Instagram or whatever site circulating about some “technical issues”. To make the silencing look even more convincing but of course just a cover up.

In the painstakingly slow email responses with the site you are informed that your account is suddenly “unsalvageable” and all of your content or data on your profile that you probably wouldn’t bother to think about externally backing up, outside of the main sites little crappy save system or some archive system in place. Conveniently allowing them get rid of whatever. They always want to make you feel like your account is safe and “back up”. but there is always a small message somewhere about making sure you understand the site is NOT RESPONSIBLE for lost data/videos/etc. “Do not use this as a form of backup.”So on their end. All your ramblings against planted policies or behaviors, is erased. Gone forever. Lost, the people who could cause them problems are now exterminated....for now at least.

A typical script varies but will probably be along the lines of something like. “We here at SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY NUMBER 00765 are Sorry for the inconvenience! It’s never happened before and our team is working hard to fix it. Sadly, you’ll have to make a new account.” And if you poke for questions about the incident it’s met with little answers and you end up “waiting for an email from their team.” That you eventually forget about, sigh deeply. Accept your account is gone then just go make a new account weeks later one night while laying in bed.

Most if not all LARGE social media sites are being used to maximize distributing controlled targeted content. Mostly by different branches of powerful people intentionally to gain unfair advantages across the globe.

Think of it as one big web, all connected. Some more directly than others. The webs are long and is a nice metaphor for once you start connecting enough red yarn strings across your cork board, after you realize it’s all intertwined. All of it.

The web covers many branches, even ones like.

“Manipulating big influencers to help unfairly stimulate sales of a specific stock on the market.”

(Hint: Guess whose gonna make a lot of money as a result of using people like you and I without consequence?)

To even larger topics on the web like;

“Canceling or introducing public figures whose main purpose is to use their follower base to help benefit someone in a higher power position gain/lose something that holds value.“

With a little charm and a nice contract fulfilled lifestyle to add the cherry on top. The people have built trust in the influencers whom they’ve absorbed whatever from in ways that they may never know.

Most followers would assume the influencer absolutely and ALWAYS have their best wishes in mind. It would be unbelievable to them and almost like a personal insult to suggest that their influencer could be causing harm to them in any way shape or form.

Think of how dedicated and dependent younger people can become on people in theirs lives whom they admire,respect,trust,and enjoy now try telling them influencers are secretly planting trends/ideas/actions directly into their lives ver the course of 30 second videos. To help some higher up gain some unjustly obtained goal. Doesn’t really sound right does it? How absurd!

Unknowingly people are being manipulated and used to stimulate whatever situation is needed by whomever at any given time. The mass population of people spreading planted information for specific music,buying,trends,access to goods, social behaviors, etc. All works as one big chain of events.

By manipulating just the right amount of top tier influencers who often times have an easy access to millions of followers gained with or without the the top people’s help.

Either by bribing the influencers with money, massive fame or, planting “celebrity”decoys,etc. Very large masses of people can be persuaded to try/buy/and do sometimes dangerous trends/actions/challenges or whatever. They start trending by those planted influencers and it all snowballs. All of this of course varies depending on what they want to manipulate, everything affects other things. It is all like one big working web machine.

Getting away in plain site can be simple more than likely all of this can be done while not raising any questions about the influencers on their sudden fame from their followers,outsiders or tabloids. As long as they are able to remain unproblematic and maintain a very positive public reputation. As more than likely a strict rule placed on them unless altered in their contract by whomever. However; there are more specific influencers who work on developing a bad public reputation. All with staged or planted events, that are going to be used to create narrative that can be reported on or printed to draw crowds in. Both in a negative or positive series of events. By utilizing a more angry or assertive influencer. The rules could hypothetically be bent about content guidelines and target a more intense and rowdy audience. While somehow never getting banned? Despite all the efforts of good people to help push them off the platform. They remain sometimes for extended periods of time, before finishing up the contracts in my theory and pretty often a seem to almost vanish. It’s like they, just turned to air. Despite this being more of a hardcore approach, influencers could be left with seriously damaged public reputations. So much so that they have to go into hiding. Only to not been seen until 10 years later after everyone has forgotten about the scandal.

Depending on how big their follower bases are, it will help determine how/when/where the seeds for the trends/information/etc. My theory on how some of the information is distributed across the influencers seems like it remains mostly dependent on the lifestyles the influencers live or may be paid to live like. I think their aesthetics probably has some kind of correlation to whatever they may be doing,promoting or distributing. Developing signature aesthetics to help mask anything that could come off as strange or odd is a large part. Having the information correlate to the lifestyle of the influencers help create another layer of secrecy and protect whoever from having to take reasonability for their actions. The more unrelated it all looks the harder it is to document and the harder it is to trace back to whoever may be in charge of the manipulating.

Let’s wrap all of this up in one beautiful big bow!

Powerful people with large amounts of money use the access they’ve normalized tricking us into giving them in ways that take advantage of large groups of consumers like you and I. They use influencers/celebrity decoys to implant or force ideas/policies/ or movements onto very large masses of people. The means is using public and relatable faces that you trust to present you with whatever information/movement/policies they want to make you more tolerant of or desensitize you to. Each person involved in these chains may have what looks like a completely different job doing seemingly 1000% different things, that absolutely would make no sense to have any correlation. Only those with ultimate high clearance public access and a lot of money could be strong enough operate something like this.

Come on man you’re crazy! No big globally acknowledged company is nearly big enough to be currently and actively monopolizing other big; but not always as big as them companies. Meaning very gently and slowly becoming sole owner over almost all small sub companies they bought. That would then over the course of time likely cause mass dependence on that company because they now have monopolized a majority of important goods and services in the world. So they can control absurd amounts of people, simply just by controlling who has how much access to what foods, water and various other supplies needed for basic human survival.

I mean Surely there would be laws put into place to stop things like this from happening. Someone has got to notice eventually that something is not right. They can’t POSSIBLY own EVERYTHING someone will stop them....ahah...

Right?........

Will Smith Hilariously Puts In Bid To Star In Lil Nas X & Billy Ray Cyrus' 'Old Town Road' Country Music Video

A social media influencer/rapper has Will Smith itching to put on a cowboy hat and boots to appear in his new country music video with Billy Ray Cyrus. See how Lil Nas X went from social media fame, to the Billboard charts, to grabbing the attention of the Hollywood titan inside....

You know you've made it when you're on Will Smith's radar.

Lil Nas X - a social media influencer/Atlanta rapper - is blowing up right now as his country rap track "Old Town Road" sweeps the nation.  Haven't heard of 'em?  Yeah, we hadn't either.  Till now.

What started as a funny, trending meme, the song - "Old Town Road" - is now a legit new song that's making moves on the music charts.

— nope (@LilNasX) December 3, 2018

  Here's a little backstory, complete with controversy and racial undertones:

There was controversy behind the hit track "Old Town Road," which was originally released by 19-year-old Lil Nas X in December. The song blew up on the popular app Tik Tok, which is an app where you can create and share short music videos. In March 2019, the track made its way to the Billboard charts, landing at the No. 19 spot on the "Hot Country Songs" list.

A week later, Billboard yanked the track from the country charts, later stating to Rolling Stone that the song doesn't "embrace enough elements of today's country music." It remained on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop list.  That's interesting, since Taylor Swift was still in the Country category until she, herself, said she was Pop. 

Do you have to look a certain way for your music to be deemed country?  Or is Darius Rucker the only black person allowed to sing in the genre? (Remember how the CMAs messed over Beyonce' - saying "she's not country" and they yanked her performance from online after she performed her VERY country song "Daddy Lessons" with Dixie Chicks?! Listen to that discussion above.)

“Old Town Road” now sits atop Billboard’s on-demand streaming chart, garnering 20.2 million listens just last week. The track also broke into the top 15 on its general Hot 100 singles chart.

“The song is country trap. It’s not one, it’s not the other,” Lil Nas X told Time. “It’s both. It should be on both [charts].”

  After Billboard gave him the boot, he caught the attention of country music singer Billy Ray Cyrus (Miley Cyrus' dad) and got the country co-sign he needed. He hopped on the remix!

Old Town Road.... the remix out now! @lilnasx pic.twitter.com/s0emFSzkHl

— Billy Ray Cyrus (@billyraycyrus) April 5, 2019

  Next thing you know, the remix drops and everyone wants in...including Will Smith.

The actor - who's currently filming Bad Boys 3 with Martin Lawrence - hopped on Instagram to put his bid in to be in the video. He shared clips from his 1999 video for his "Wild Wild West" song with "Old Town Road" playing in the background.  Ha.

  Daytime talk show host Ellen DeGeneres also got in on it:

                  This is me today. Thanks, @LilNasX and @BillyRayCyrus. #OldTownRoadREMIX

A post shared by Ellen (@theellenshow) on Apr 5, 2019 at 1:31pm PDT

  Take a listen to the "Old Town Road" remix below:

We're sure it'll make it back on Billboard's Hot Country Songs list now. Hmph.

Here's the original track below:

With Billboard yanking the track off the country music charts, it only exposed the genre gatekeepers who continue to try and dictate what's considered "mainstream" in the music industry even though music has become so blended over the years. It's not as divided as it used to be, however, it seems the industry honchos are trying to keep it that way. Makes you wonder if Lil Nas X was a different race and released the same song would it have been taken off the country charts.

Peep this thread:

  Hi. Former country music label person here.@LilNasX was kicked off the Billboard country charts because the (mainstream) terrestrial country music market is filled to a surfeit with racism and bigotry.

Allow me to explain...
