| This song’s not about Fortnite. |
| It’s about how it’s not about Fortnite.
|
| No, it’s not about Fortnite. |
| It’s about piggybacking on the back of Fortnite.
|
| Hi — you probably came here to see Fortnite. |
| Well, I’m sorry guy for the
|
| surprise you’ve been caught by. |
| I just picked a trending topic to attach my
|
| name to (Dan Bull). |
| Not really bothered if you reckon that it’s lame, dude.
|
| But now I’ve captured your attention, there are a couple of other subject
|
| matters I want to mention. |
| YouTube lately has become a real sh1t show — let me
|
| explain in case you think that was a bit low:
|
| Our favourite creators aren’t James Corden, Jimmy Kimmel and Ellen.
|
| The trending page is empty advertising space they’re selling. |
| You can get a
|
| plugin now to see what’s really trending — it’s mainly stuff from Asia
|
| YouTube’s suspending.
|
| Ooh look, where have you been hiding, PewDiePie? |
| Did YouTube remove you from
|
| the crew invited to the nightclub? |
| It’s just a VIP club, and each of us who’ve
|
| been putting blood, sweat and tears in are being shoved out, 'cause YouTube are
|
| terrified of Netflix, so stretching out the watch time’s the only way to get
|
| rich.
|
| Every year this site makes Google a loss, so they need to boost the views as
|
| much as humanly possible. |
| I mean, if you were YouTube, would you give a toss
|
| whether well performing videos were stupid or not? |
| No.
|
| It’s not about quality, it’s quantity; |
| disregarding what the people want to see,
|
| and we don’t want TV. |
| We just want to see the channels we’re subscribed to.
|
| Instead we get suggestions based on what gets higher views, using information
|
| I didn’t want to provide you. |
| But never mind, I guess I like Fortnite too…
|
| This song’s not about Fortnite. |
| It’s about how it’s not about Fortnite.
|
| No, it’s not about Fortnite. |
| It’s about piggybacking on the back of Fortnite.
|
| If you want to make a quick buck, pick what the kids watch, make a cheesy rap
|
| on it, give it a sick hook. |
| Once upon a time that required FNAF and Minecraft.
|
| Now it’s Fortnite, so of course I provide that.
|
| I’ve got to keep my Socialblade numbers bubbling — they seem to be in trouble;
|
| I’m struggling to recover them. |
| Thus, I’m juggling the topics that I want to
|
| rap about
|
| with all that other stuff you’re asking me to make a track about.
|
| No wonder so many creators all get knackered out, but I love making new stuff
|
| too much to be backing out.
|
| Plus, I made over a million people click subscribe, but the site won’t notify
|
| them that my clips have just arrived.
|
| So now you have click the little bell, but if you didn’t, it’ll tell the
|
| algorithm it should miss you out.
|
| And despite what they say, it’s damn well faulty. |
| Oi, Susan Wojcicki,
|
| can you tell I’m salty?
|
| Nowadays, if you’re not milking every trending topic straight away,
|
| you may as well not be in the creator database. |
| So I’m Jumping on this
|
| bandwagon after seeing Ali-A — Ricegum did it so it’s morally OK.
|
| Well, I should grab a hundred content creators from near and far,
|
| put them on a track, call it a Rap Battle Royale. |
| In fact, I’m actually going
|
| to go and do that, so don’t move, I’ll be soon back, with a new track.
|
| This song’s not about Fortnite. |
| It’s about how it’s not about Fortnite.
|
| No, it’s not about Fortnite. |
| It’s about piggybacking on the back of Fortnite. |
