Some people believe that YouTube is just a niche on the internet where you can find DIY to cat videos. What most people don't know is that Youtube is becoming just as big as any other media online and here is a perfect example of that.
This guy above is named Troye Sivan. And he is quickly becoming one of the most popular musicians on YouTube. The attractive 19 year old Aussie is on his way to become a pop star sensation.
Don't believe me? Within hours of his EP announcement Tumblr, Facebook and Twitter all went viral with the #tryxe (the title of his EP). With the help of his 2.5 million subscribers on Youtube and his 1.7 million followers on Twitter Troye quickly became #1 on iTunes in multiple countries with his single "Happy Little Pill".
Now, as a disclaimer, I am someone who spends hours and hours on YouTube daily, however when I heard Troye was coming out with an album I quickly brushed it off as something common in the Youtube community. I even passed up the opportunity to buy an exclusive "Tryxe" sweatshirt at this years VidCon (they sold out within an hour btw.)
However, when "Happy Little Pill" came out my curiosity got the best of me and I had to take a listen. The result? It was amazing, addictive, fun, creative and so much more. The combination of tech sounds and amazing vocals make this song not one to forget. A few weeks later I picked up the entire EP on Rhapsody and fell in love with every song.
Have I mentioned I haven't liked one artist entire album since Adele's 21?!
Seriously though, you won't regret taking a listen at this fabulous up and coming singer. Because before you know it, he will be a name you will see everywhere.
Now, I hope I get you just as addicted to Troye as I am now!
