 Baw, what's up, it's Brandon Shawn, and this is one of the best ways to get attention and blow yourself up on TikTok immediately with one post right now. All right, wanna see what I'm talking about? So check this guy out right here. Goes by the name of Young Honey, all right? And if you scroll his page, well, let's first see he has 22,000 followers, all right? And you see regularly his post get about 5,000, 12,000, 11,000, da-da-da-da. He scrolls, scrolls, scrolls. Oh wait, this one has 848,000. What happened here? Oh man, he has 112.7,000 likes on it. What happened was we're doing an open verse challenge with 24K Golden right now, and this guy, since we're working it, I noticed that this guy was probably, he might've been the very first person who actually created a do-it-another verse to this open verse challenge. If you can get on these things fast, you will get noticed, because not only are you getting the views from your regular, your regular view algorithm situation, what's happening is people will go into the sounds and they'll start to just wanna hear all of the verses. You'll have the artist who wanna hear what other people are doing, the song wait before, song wait till after. I say that you, if you're an artist, wait till after to check out other people's verses. You don't want it to influence what you do. But still, the artist, after they create their verses, they're going through it to check and see what other people did, to see how they might measure up the competition. If they got, might get picked or highlighted, and then you have other people who are just fans and they just wanna hear all the verses and try to find the best verse and then maybe find a new artist that they can check out, right? So open verses are amazing, amazing. I'm gonna show you some more, but not only did he get like the first, like or very early on to be the first, he also got recognition from 24K Golden, right? Some other people who are checking out the sounds, but check out Golden's page, he actually posted, all right? He actually posted it himself on his own page. And that's an additional 469,000 views on the video that he created because Golden reposted it. And you're gonna see that a lot in open verses because people want to share really dope verses to their open verse. Sometimes people like playfully share like a bad verse or somebody else kind of being comical to the open verse, but people wanna share really dope verses because it just makes other people like the vibe of the song even more. And then you have cases like this. If you check out Caitlyn Raps, if you don't know much about Caitlyn Raps, I'll tell you, I've been following her and using her as a case study for a lot of artists in our boot camp for TikTok and just clients for a while now, right? And putting people onto what she was doing on TikTok. And she actually did an open verse with Russ, 23.1 million views on this thing. Not only did Russ show love, a lot of people showed love. I think Russ reposted it, of course, but Russ actually put her on the actual remix or maybe it's the official version. I can't remember, but she's on the actual song and it's going crazy. Like it's starting to move up on the chart. Somewhere Russ posted, I might be able to find on Russ's page. Like somewhere Russ talked about, it was doing better than his songs typically do, right? Just out the gate, like it's going crazy. One, because you already have a song by Russ, then you have this verse that the crowd has chosen, right? They say, yo, this verse is crazy and they're listening to it all the time and they're waiting for it to drop on Spotify. I bet I could just find a comment. I haven't even looked through this, but like who played this like a thousand times? Russ, we asked the people, I asked you humbly put her on the remix, right? You need to put on the remix. Thought I heard the best one earlier, but now, right? So you have the ability to win out, right? People are literally choosing. This is what I'm saying. This is somebody who's listening to all the verses and now they're like, oh yeah, this is the best one. You better put this woman on the track expeditionally, yadda, yadda, yadda, right? This is doing very, very well. Very, very well as an official song, but as for her as an artist, this is an amazing big break. And she's not the first artist to have a open verse, like be chosen for an open verse for a song. As a matter of fact though, this is the cool part. Russ is always already a bigger artist. 24K Golden, he's already a bigger artist at this point, but I've seen some artists. I think Sadie Jean is one of the popular ones. She's not that big, like not at all. She's still technically in her early, like just growing on TikTok doesn't have much visibility from what I knew, right? And there's other people like her where they did an open verse challenge and the her song that she was doing an open verse for was pretty dope. So people heard her song and then you had a lot of artists adding to her song, and then as all these artists use your song, not only are they helping market it for you, but people are truly blowing up as well together. So she blew up off a Russ's song, right? But this Sadie Jean girl, I had never heard of her until there was a whole bunch of people doing dope open verses to her song and her part is really dope. So there's this really dope song, TikTok is loving it, right? And next thing you know, matter of fact, let me see how many, let's see what the views look like on her song. I'm gonna pull that up real quick, real quick. I believe her name is Sadie Jean. I don't know if that's her artist name or her real name. I'm hoping that's her real name, you know what I'm saying? Let's see, Sadie Jean, bam, uh-oh. Yeah, she has 2.2 million listeners. Where's the song? Is this literally the only song she has? Oh my gosh. So yeah, in real time, I'm filing out. This is probably the TikTok song and this is her only song. Bruh, just prove my point. You cannot be like a highly developed or popular artist and blow up on doing not only other people's open verses, you can have your own open verse that goes crazy and people create verses so great to your song that intrigues people. And especially if your song is good, we all have to acknowledge the monkey in the room, the elephant, whatever animal it is. Yo, the content has to be fire, all right? But I don't really wanna play this because you know how YouTube gets, but I'm gonna try to give you a hot second. Let me see. Oh, it's never gonna be like you though. That's not the type of song or genre that's a trap song or some kind of super fast paced poppy song where people think you always gotta dance. That's not a song you dance to. So I wanna go ahead and like that for all the people who think you have to dance or be funny on TikTok to blow up. Come on, Breleigh. If you're saying at this point, you literally haven't tried and it's embarrassing. Try or just listen to me so you can save yourself some time and then dig in. But TikTok is an amazing thing. It's an amazing opportunity and open verses is a great moment in time. We don't know how long people will be disinterested with them, all right? People have been doing them since last year. One of our clients did one early last year. The song did amazing. Tens of millions of views but it wasn't because of the open verse. Open verses weren't really a trend and really hitting right at that time. Right now, open verses are hitting. Why the hitting is hot before people get tired of them and it's not as cool of a thing anymore because we've seen a lot of really dope things happen at this time. All right, that's it for this video. Another TikTok tip from Brandon and hopefully that was helpful. If you got questions, put them in the comment section below. If you like the video, share it. Definitely share it with your homies, your friends, your girlfriend, whoever is an artist and they need to help, I got them. That's it, peace.
