The year is 2020. This song is still better than much of what they play on the radio.

[jayive]

Still as relevant today as it was 6 years ago.

I think this is Jon's best project. It might not be the funniest one, but it's the best made satire he came up with.

[rolytnz]

An accurate synopsis of the entire music industry wrapped into one song. Brilliant.

[ShadOwNzZ]

10 years later and nothing has changed in pop music industry

[Raumes]

This song is actually probably one of his deepest because every aspect of this song is so spot on and truthful it doesn’t even feel like a parody 😂😂

Jon Lajoie is a genius. But what I probably love the most is what an amazing actor he is. I think that it can be seen really good in this video. You have 5 characters that have their unique way of talking and especially moving, and even in the choreography you can tell that every character is dancing in his unique way and stays in his role, even though the choreography is synchron. His acting talent is so incredible and impressive and it is a pleasure to watch and laugh

JonLajoie, if I was a girl, or gay, I would totally fall in love with you. But I am totally not a gay, because I am all about v.a.g.i.n.a.

2:25 Only Jon Lajoie makes a cameo in his own video lol...by the way, how many personas does he have now? like 16? haha

“To get a small percentage of the urban music market”🔥

[nicklousechard]

The dancing and choreography in this is very under rated. My god this man is talented.

[Netherwolf]

Gotta love how he got all the stereotypes down perfectly. I mean from left to right you got The Punk, The Guy with a Child-Like Nature, The Cool Leader, The Wannabe Rebel, and The Passionate, Androgynous Bi Guy.
Perfectly executed.

Why is this not at the top of the charts?

[AamuAurora]

I used to be an 11-years-old girl from Central Europe who was totally in love with Jon's comedy. The highlight of my week were the FCE preparation classes where I met my crush. We never dared to ask each other out but we always came 30 minutes before lectures so we could sit together in the corner, and watch Jon Lajoie's videos. We also talked on Facebook, and discussed possible translations of his work, haha. I'm happy that I have been brought back here after so many years.

Just watching this 2020 and think how that dude had to dance this choreography 5 times.

Man Jon you have to make more songs. I miss your satire

[jamesmccarthy]

The ironic thing is this sounds better than most pop songs that have come out in the last 20 years!! 🤣🤣

[HelennaRainhaDeTroia]

"Now I'm singing with my gayyy voice! To let you know that I'm sensitive!"

[SNN]

It's ironic that this is actually a better song than 90% of the pop music out there.

[MatthewMcVeagh]

This is the best, truest, cleverest song LaJoie has ever done.

[strixcz]

The production quality of this masterpiece is just insane for a YT comedy song! Not to mention the spot on lyrics! :) This just ages like an old wine...
