Are They Still Good? Baby Ariel Edition

Image
As we all know Baby Ariel became famous on the musical.ly app. The place on the internet where kids 15 and below go and lip sync badly to age inappropriate songs, while twerking on a handstand in their darkly lit room for their followers.  Well Baby Ariel was one of the first to actually blow up from this app and taught us once again that anyone can become famous for anything on the internet... These days she's a social media queen with millions of followers on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook etc. But has her quality gone downhill as she's blown up?... My gut reaction is no, she's definitely improved since her first few videos where all she did was kinda move the camera awkwardly and do a few random hand gestures, to now when she does all kinda camera tricks like changing clothes mid video. Let me tell you that for all the slack these musical.ly kids get the sh*ts not as easy as it seems, take it from someone who once badly attempted to make one just to see what all th...

Are They Still Funny? Cardi B Edition

Image
The evolution of Cardi B is certainly an interesting one. In many ways she's gone from being a five star 'ratchet, about my schmoney instagram chick' to a slightly less ratchet but still about her coins reality TV star. Despite her recent rise to fame, Cardi has kept true to her roots and consistent with the instagram videos. But are they still funny? is the real question.                                                                                                                                                                                 ...

Are They Still Good? Ella Mai Edition

Image
I first stumbled upon Ella's music one day when I was flicking through YouTube and I have to say the decision to listen was one of my best random music finds. 3 or so mixtapes of hers later and I'm ready for the album to come out. DJ Mustard please tell your girl to hurry up, the fans demand it!  Anyway I know the question on everyone's lips is has she become a better or worse singer over the years? Well little known fact about Ella Mai she was once on the UK version of xFactor many moons ago in one of those 'look kinda pretty but can't really sing well together and/or alone' type girl groups who got booted off at bootcamp. After the show she left the group and glowed up in a major way- I mean what is her secret because I need this witchcraft level glow up in my life- and her music has blown up in a big way. As she is on a tour with my other favourite girl and random music find Kehlani. Moving on, from her Instagram videos you can really take in the essen...

Review of the Janoskians

Image
Number of subscribers: 2,265,000 on main channel 4 million + on all channels Genre: Pranks, Public trolling , Comedy My quality rating: 6/10 Like my previous review on Tyler Oakley  //check it out here http://theyoutubejunkie.blogspot.com/2016/05/tyler-oakley-review.html//   I used to be a much bigger fan of the Janoskians than I am now. However the other day I did a little binge of some of their new videos and now feel informed enough to talk about the current state of their channel. The Janoskians originally came onto my radar through a video called Awkward train situations 2 (which will be down below feel free to watch it) which I saw all the way back in 2012. My 13 year old self found this video sooo hilarious that she cried with laughter at this video and subscribed to them. After this for the next year or so I had an obsession with the Janoskians I watched all their videos even their stupid vlogs on awesomnesstv and I downloaded their music - gra...

Review of Tyler Oakley

Hiya welcome to my new series the Youtuber Reviews. Hope you enjoy it!!! Number of subscribers: 8,096,000 Genre: Lifestyle, Positivity, Comedy, Vlogger etc My Quality Rating: 4/10 As you can see from the figure above Mr Tyler is quite a popular person on YouTube, having 8 million and counting subscribers on YouTube alone not to add the millions he has on Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat the list goes on. You could truly call Tyler the Queen of Internet. But as we all know being popular doesn't necessarily mean good quality. I'm sure we've all noticed our favourite Youtubers make it big then the quality of their videos start to decline leaving us poor fangirls at home crying over their old videos... One thing I can say about Tyler Oakley is that I used to be a HUGEEE fan of his and the important word in this sentence is used to be. Whether this is because of his video quality declining or what videos I enjoy watching changing as I've gotten older is a mystery...
