The rise of YouTube has opened the eyes of many to the amount of talent that goes undiscovered. Unfortunately, most of the people who have risen to fame really don't offer much talent. People like Chris Crocker, iJustine, Magibon...they don't really do anything. Sure, on occasion, some of this content is valuable or insightful, but for the most part, they have less to offer than the bottom two of American Idol.
Maybe I am just looking for more from the people on YouTube. I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who love the random videos and disjointed content from some silly teenager, but I would hope for more. Thankfully, I've finally found it!
A gangly 6'5" 17 year old from Massachusetts who's "not gay." He currently has 11 videos up on YouTube and everyone of them is lol funny. His lyrical repertoire is limitless and it's hard to imagine this kid is still in High School. If you understand satire and can laugh at yourself (as well as stereotypes) and ignore political correctness, then this kid is worth checking out.
Apparently, he just signed a deal with Comedy Central. I've signed up for his email updates and will surely be watching when this kid makes it big. Enjoy!
