If you aren't on Facebook or somehow you haven't seen a video of a kid yodelling in Walmart, it has gone VIRAL. And when I say viral, I don't mean the overuse of the word viral "Oooo I got 10k views it's gone viral!" ... It's got billions of views across the different platforms, it's been remixed by producers all over the world, it's been made into memes... you know it went all out 2018. It got him on to Ellen Degeneres and to COACHELLA ... As a musician and producer those are two of my lifetime goals smashed in a week because someone filmed me busking in Walmart. One would think I'm jealous or pissed off that he got given those opportunities, but I'm really not. Anyway we're not talking about me.
Now, you have the haters. Why are some people so upset? They talk about how hard they work, and now this kid just gets given these opportunities. I actually find it so selfish, if you are one of these haters I want ask what if it was you up there, on that stage and on the screens of millions? Would you be so upset? I'm so happy for the kid. Unfortunately he's going to fade out and be forgotten unless he's put into the right hands which really sucks.
What are your thoughts?
