You mean like Kyle Bull?



I like how rather than sitting down in a neutral setting, he's walking around in a sly manner showing off all of his gear. Dude used to be cool and helpful and now he's out of touch.

What does he do for a job? I was watching some twitter police guy talks a guy down kind of video once and I swear this guy was the cop.

He made a video a while back where he said he got fired from his day job and that was what made him to decide to hit the gas on youtube full time. His full time job is youtube. I don't think he mentioned what he did beforehand.

Kyle looks pretty tough so being a cop isn't out of the question. Just like a cop, Bull can panhandle himself in any situation.
 
Kudos to Ola on that vid. Classy way to take on the raw feedback he requested. No cop outs, maybe a couple of points of explanation on why things are the way they are, but not just shitty excuses, he just takes it on.

Like others have said, many of these guys are now in a huge bubble and can lose touch with the community and why they started this in the first place... because they really love the music and the gear too.
But hey, thats what youtube and the social media overlords want, they stroke their egos with praise while whipping them with algo requirements to keep on pumping out content they want, now it seems a few are looking around wondering how the fuck they ended up where they are. Same thing that has been happening to artists and bands since forever.

Perhaps, reconnect with the community is the biggest one. Put yourselves back in their/our shoes and make content you would want to watch. Use your 'fame' for good and leverage access to better interviews and gear that but do it it with integrity. People can see through any bullshit pretty fast.
Please ditch the real cringey shit that makes me turn off immediately: the stupid face of surprise/shock/sadness on the video thumbnail, the 'OMG guys... this is the greatest thing ever' (until next week) hyperbole and the youtube subscriber award 'thank YOU guys' video/humblebrag on the shelf behind them (it's an employee of the week award, nobody fucking cares)
 
Taking the piss out of kyles cringe content is fair game, but going after physical appearance not so much. A bunch of tough cunts on the internet saying somebody looks like a pussy lolol what are you 5?

4:09 "And frankly, if you guys get mad at a thumbnail or title not being what you think it's going to be.. I would prefer that you just not watch my channel".. Ok. Thumbnails and Titles are the name of the game on youtube. If someone clicks on a video and the thumbnail and title are unrelated then yeah, they're gonna get mad or just not watch.

My growing resentment is youtubers out there are just becoming more and more show-and-tell with their gear. I also know some of these youtubers are getting guitars/amps/gear for free and not disclosing it. All they have to mention is "my thoughts and opinions are my own", yet when they keep getting free or dirt cheap gear, is it really? That's why it's somewhat refreshing to see a youtuber like Ola going to guitar stores and buying shit with his own money. Or seeing Robert Baker get a guitar for free just so that he can give it away. Or Leon Todd borrowing his buddies gear to make a cool video. I also don't want to watch youtubers who are just as bad at guitar as me and are proud about being bad at guitar.
 
Maybe Ola could do an international tour!?!?!

Oh oh. Kyle’s boyfriend has entered the chat.

If they were actually making fun of his physical appearance, maybe your virtue signalling would be justified, I don’t like that either. However, saying someone does it doesn’t look tough is hardly making fun of someone physical appearance.

As for Kyle, is content isn’t actually that cringe. Some nice amps demo’s on there in the past. Does a decent job. The thumbnails and shocked faces and clickbait titles can fuck right off. For all of them. It’s actually STOPPED me watching this and others videos now. So having the opposite effect.

Maybe they are polarized and cut the glare of the lights? Or maybe he's just trying to make them sort of a signature like Buddy Holly did with those thick frame glasses.

I reckon a quarter of my comments on this site are taking the piss out of his content but good try with the boyfriend call.

Saying somebody doesn’t look tough aka looks like a pussy absolutely is making fun of somebodies physical appearance are you retarded? No idea how I’m virtue signalling in all of this but okay.

Lovers can be cruel to each other I guess.

The guy who made that comment initially is built kinda like a wrecking machine so his perspective is somewhat skewed. I wouldn't read into it too much.
