Just so we’re clear.
I was told that Steve didn’t have a young audience and certainly didn’t make content that appealed to them.
But it turns out he does.
The criticism is very simple here. Make adult oriented videos of you want, make child oriented videos if you want, but to mix the two is reckless.
I don’t agree with comments comparing Stevie T to Jimmy Savile.
Stevie T has not committed a crime.
but the fact remains that those comments are out there. And are being made in relation to the content he’s making.
Yeah, I personally don’t agree with those comments accusing him of noncery either, but I can understand how it could look that way from an outsider’s perspective.
Savile never appeared in court either.
Someone needs to look into this KDH guy... what's he hiding?... I once saw him "helping" his mother do the shopping in Tesco, all good like.... that's got to be a cover for something! (Obviously, this is a joke. Keep making these fine videos)
I don't know if you've seen this. A Chicago school is systematically happy to be passing out dildos and buttplugs to 14 year olds. Once exposed, the media coverage including where search engines lead us to, is attack the people who exposed the school. ua-cam.com/video/uvLVJaKN28k/v-deo.html
@@BrianCullen85 uncover the truth!! He must be deflecting something 😂 (also jk)
Rob Chapman's like '"Thank God it's not about me"
@Richard Harrold Yeah Stevie T is creepy as hell
Rob seems to have packed up his bad behavior tbh, stevie is so much worse
lmfao.
So close to Christmas too...
Chappers has become a friendly meme these days. I think he can be forgiven by the internets for now. Back to being a size chap 😬
Stevie T is one of those people that falls into the 'shouting all the time is funny' catagory.
My son watches that flamingo guy, just shouts and screams. I last about 2 mins before telling him to turn that shite off 🤣
he sounds like the parody character andy samberg played in parks and rec
A lot of annoying UA-camrs do that e.g. MrBeast. It's a way of generating faux-excitement.
He's suffers from a deplorable excess of extroversion.
It worked for JERRY LEWIS!
I think obviously the sensible choice would just be to separate his content to another channel, people comparing him to Jimmy is a tad too far in my opinion but the criticism is valid
I agree
@@KDH i can see why people go there but it's not something that anyone has a single piece of evidence to support. That said Jimmy never went to court for it either by keeping it all hidden till he was worm food which is disturbing but society is different today and I would hope, even if it's a fools hope, that he couldn't get away with that shit today.
I had wondered about that as well... I feel like even that people would for sure have an issue with as well... That's why I feel like ol' Stevie t trying to say it was innocent and he didn't mean to blur the lines like that is a pretty flimsy defense. Idk if there is enough flexibility for someone to be able to really juggle both... Those Disney kids have a whole transition process if they decide they want to leave Disney and do regular roles when they come of age... And it is as much for the public and audience as it is for the actor or actress. Whether that's necessarily fair is a whole other topic. But I do feel like even attempting to do both would be an extremely difficult balance to maintain. If the audience even gave you a chance.
@@KDH I think he's purely in it for the money and the ad revenue - which are one and the same. I'd never heard of him until your videos brought him to my attention. Annoying eejit with squeaky voice - really should just go away and grow up but being a successful internet star, he won't. I doubt he's involved in anything untoward, other than the rubbish in his video content. Nevertheless, the less people screaming away on the web like him, the better.
They said he's giving off _those vibes._ They didn't say "I bet he's doing Jimmy Seville types of things." I understand no one - KDH especially - wants to open themselves up to libel but Steve T frankly _IS_ giving off Jimmy Saville like vibes.
*VIBES* Mr. Stevie T Lawyer stalking the comments section, vibes. Not actions.
I'm a 3rd year English Lit major at a prominent university and Stevie T's alphabet song helped me tremendously with my mid-semester finals
Same
Special Ed does NOT count as a prominent university, but well done you for trying so hard.
This is the reason we stopped letting our kids have access to UA-cam. Like many other parents, we naively thought that kids videos would have only kid-appropriate stuff in them. Luckily, we found out before our kids did that there are many creators making videos with characters that kids want to watch, with those characters doing not at all kid-appropriate things.
Stevie T has always given me a weird vibe. Good to know my intuition is still working correctly.
I mean yeah duh 6yo should not be let on the internet 🤣
Typically 6-8 should start being introduced to the internet but be supervised all of the time.
8-10 can start consuming content like non f2p games with minor or no supervision
10-12 should start having a bit more freedom.
@@somekindofdude1130 UA-cam kids is specifically made for kids from ages 12 to 4 and under, it makes sense why a lot of older and maybe less technologically wise parents would allow their kids access to that kind of material because they simply don't know what's on it and are putting their trust into a large company like UA-cam to properly vet the content their children are watching making the lives of the parents easier. It's like Nickelodeon it's made for kids ages 2 to 17, you wouldn't expect something like Nickelodeon to show your children content that would be harmful towards them would you.
@josephhutchins8 😂yeah except UA-cam kids pushes the exact same crap regular UA-cam pushes on kids. It's all bad.
It is a shame to see Stevie T go down this route. I remember watching the How to play like Lil Wayne video back in highschool and at the time, I thought his ending solo was brilliant because of how good it sounded with the Lil Wayne song in the back. It actually inspired me to learn music theory in order to be able to improvise over any song. Wish he stayed like that Stevie T.
The worst thing is he is actually a damn sick guitarist but instead of making music he just made shitty content instead... I used to like him and I never could work out why I couldn't stand him any more. I am not even that young.... it makes sense he was making videos for kids not adults...
He stole the premise of that video from my friend dmdollinar08, who stopped being active on UA-cam in 2012. I also beat Stevie Low T to the punch in doing "Disco Metal" and I long suspected that he plagiarized me.
@@theravenskillrebelmilitia139 Oh hai there. You're the funny Dream Theater guy. Keep up the good work!
@@SixStringFiasco I want to branch out into some other things besides the fiasco of modern Dream Theater. Terrible UA-cam music celebrities like Steve is a logical place to go.
I feel like branching out and making kids content is alright as long as he keeps it on another channel separate from his main one. That's my opinion.
I remember a time when parents didn't just let their kids watch random stuff on UA-cam all day. There's far worse stuff on the Internet 😂
It's pretty much a rule, anything that kids like, lazy parents will trust that thing with their kids all day as a free babysitter and get angry if they have to do actual parenting.
All this UA-cam kids sht is 100% the parents fault. Letting a little kid watch videos online unsupervised what did you expect? Just the fact of giving a child internet access alone is nonsense
If you're letting your kids access the internet unsupervised, they're gonna get groomed and it's YOUR fault.
Figured he targeted old ppl with hearing loss the way he shouts everything ☠️
As a parent who’s child subjected me to the torture of blippi there’s no way in hell I’d be watching a parody in my own time 😂😂😂
Bro… I’m right there with you. Blippi was the bane of my existence (along with the gang from Word Party) for about 18 months.
I do agree that Stevie should made a separate channel for his kids videos, his children's content doesn't apply to me, it doesn't bother me that I see it in my feed from him occasionally since I do enjoy Stevie T, he was an early inspiration for me when I started learning guitar (this was back when he had like 400k or less subs) and I've watched him all throughout the years. I was proud of him for making his apology vid to Batio.
But there's undeniably a change that needs to be made here, for the sake of the younglings, cause if my kid was watching a blippi video (not that I'd be letting them) and then I randomly see an ad for an adult website/store, I'd be pissed, they wouldn't know what in the hell it was, but I wouldn't want my kid exposed to that until I thought they were ready, y'know. Somn needs to change.
What kids? Do you actually have kids or are you speaking metaphorically?
@@kiillabytez does it really matter?
@@Poeticskulls Ummm..., it's a valid question.
I’m looking forward to this. Your first videos on Stevie T showed some really creepy stuff. At best, dude is cringe, at worst, he’s exploiting children into making him money
If he just made a separate kids channel and kept it G rated he would be fine but he wants to drop starlet names to his infant audience
You only say that because you're not a 7 year old shopping for an adult Pleasure Whip.
Come on man, I thought you'd be better than this
Uh, no. At worst, he's trying to mess with kids minds and corrupt them because he has some darker motives.
Isn't that what capitalism does? I mean, have you seen those kid youtubers that make millions a year? They are "exploited" by their parents and by the toy brands
I mean, he should definitely decide. And he’s acknowledged his errors and said that he might delete these videos, but he didn’t. It’s very easy Steve, just do it!!!
I used to watch his stuff sometimes years ago. The reason I stopped was because his content seemed to be shifting focus to a younger audience.
Stevie T? Isn't that that the guy who made a career out of making fun of other guiarists, but can't work the courage to get up on stage himself? Yeah I've heard of him.
Exactly
I first heard of him from his genre parodies
Wait... Is that true? He won't get on stage? LoL! LMAO, even!
@@joriankell1983 He was invited to tour with Dragonforce playing bass. He accepted, but then backed out once he realized he'd actually be playing on a stage, in front of people.
@@joriankell1983 he turned down dragonforce because he was scared
Hearing him yell his excuses I genuinely think he’s just surprised no one else in the metal/guitar community thought to exploit children as a revenue stream, guy has corporate executive levels of moral bankruptcy.
I love that he says look what I see when I type kids cartoons *scrolls endlessly* and at the bottom the video in question is labeled "when KIDS CARTOONS cuss" WOAH WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT WHEN YOU USE KEYWORDS THOSE KEYWORDS WITH BRING UP VIDEOS WITH THOSE WORDS
@@mekanikaltitan ye that vid was a pretty bad example, but some of the other vids shown are defenitly made for very young kids. he used to be about guitars, metal and parodies.
@@the4given196 Im well aware of his content its not like I live under a rock. This sweaty internet guy is just mad Stevie T is gaming the system for monetization and trying to make it some nefarious plot.
@@mekanikaltitan exacly. That is how you bait children in this digital generation
@@RicoLee27 no it's how you monetize an otherwise low traffic channel. It's not like there is really any direct messaging on youtube and if he was out here baiting kids in the comments there would be tangible proof. Try again this is just defamation of character.
Doesn't matter what content he's creating or collaborating on, he's infuriating to watch/listen to.
I genuinely can't understand how he's become so successful? I guess he must have a marketing force behind him.
@@castleanthrax1833 kids youtube is no joke, go look up some of the views those children's channels get.
@@yucatansuckaman5726 I'm not confused as to why kids UA-cam is successful, I'm confused as to why Steve Terreberry is successful.
@@castleanthrax1833 Well, half the IQ bell curve is to the left, so there you go.
@@NinjaRunningWild Two standard deviations below the mean, is likely where his followers sit.
Another thing that still rubs me wrong about Steve is that he mentioned the Richard Benson video in his ”biggest youtube regrets” video, following it up with some half assed non-apology and explanation as to why he hasn’t taken it down, saying that he would’ve absolutely done it if Richard himself contacted him asking to take it down.. Well we all know that’s not too much of a possibility anymore, and the video remains listed on youtube to this day.
It's a good video. There's no reason to take it down
richard benson.....richard benson you put yourself on display for the world to see doing goofy shit,people are gonna make fun of you,regardless of the back story.
I’d never trust a man who behaves like he does on camera.
As a kid, his videos made me uncomfortable. As a father now, he makes me even more uncomfortable. Nobody’s children should be subject to this dude.
Has Stevie T been around long enough that you've grown from a child to a parent in the course of his UA-cam channel?
@@DominicAirola that’s what I was also wondering lol
You are a kid AND a father?
Damn, you are precocious.
@@DominicAirola Unfortunately lol, his Lil Wayne video came out when I was about 10. I’m now a 22 year old father.
@tyler Johnson yeah I feel you man, I had my first when I was 17
I don’t let my kids watch UA-cam or anything else unsupervised. I don’t trust any giant media company or media personality to have my kids best interests in mind.
THIS... right here! So many people just let their kids loose these days, which is why we have entitled kids who think Communism is great and are willing to conspire to commit crimes against people in order to achieve their agenda.
It's so strange.
I don't know how old you are but I was just coming into my teen years as the internet really started to become accessible. Back then there was no control, no real authority watching over it and we still managed to mature safely online. These days there are so many "safety nets" online and yet kids are even more in danger. I wonder if it's just a simple case of exchanging money for safety
I'm never raising my kids with the internet.
@@vapordreams983 Your kids will suffer, well done
A really solid state investigation on guitar tubes.
I hate you. Take my damn like.
It’s insane how much he must live in your head rent free.
When's the deep dive into the controversy of KDH's hair routine? Jokes aside guy has excellent hair.
Theres nothing wrong with just having a young audience. The problem is advertising sex toys on your channel in the same video lol. Him and his manager are creeps.
And not only did his manager blatantly lie about not having children for fans, he should (as a manager for multiple clients) be well aware that age demographic statistics are skewed towards teen/young adult, because children will lie about their age to access restricted content.
Selling anything to kids is just wrong.
Think about it. He is in his 30s, and acts and dresses like he is 17. Something isn't right with that guy
@@davyboy9397peewee herman
@@doomzy8622 Exactly what I was thinking too
The thing that turned me away from him a long time ago was when he backed out of a tour with dragonforce due to "anxiety" while shitting on a bunch of people putting their stuff out there. I find that cowardly.
But something that kills me in that video is that in the exact same video he litterally sponsered RAID SHADOW LEGENDS. I mean dude no offense but this is a response video, who tf sponsors or monetizes their response vid? And why would anyone sponsor Raid Shadow Legends for their sponsor video? I mean granted it was the same time when Raid Shadow Legends was a notorious sponsor but it just baffles me.
The he eventually was able to play with dragon force …
There is difference between performing for hundreds or thousends of people then having fun making content alone in a room in the comfort zone
I love these victory laps you keep doing against this dingus.
Who you calling a dingus you turnkey? For your health!
I wouldn't call it a victory, did I subscribe? No. Did I hear this dude play guitar? No, only him complaining the whole time. No wonder he got no subs.
@@kooskoekemoer Well, you must be new here. Otherwise, you'd understand what kind of videos you'd expect to see.
He needs to keep pumping that Stevie T well since that is what gets him the most views.
@@conniethesconnie Not a good idea, if this channel is based on hating Stevie T, then what happens if he dies or quit youtube? Then this channel will also die with all its haters, or do you think there is enough crap to talk about Stevie T forever,I don't think so.
This video was an eye opener. Cheers from the USA.
Whenever I see "Stevie-T" in the title of ANY of your videos, I know it's going to be a spicy one 🔥
I feel like this is a case of doing something without considering the consequences I believe he wanted to expand into a new audience to have a new generation of viewers probably to safe guard the future of his channel and just didn’t think about the other content that was on his channel . I don’t believe he’s any type of predator
I think you're right.
I completely agree
the key to ‘success’ in our current system (the great pyramid scheme) is to constantly grow your business. otherwise others will take over and you’ll just die on the vine. it is the system we have created.
Parents let their children listen to songs with lyrics like 'there's sex in the air, I like the smell of it' and watch Cardi B music videos. But would you call them all groomers? So I think you are right.
Sometimes you HAVE to take sponsorships if it's in your contract. Doesn't matter if it fits your content, you don't have a choice who sponsors you.
Blippi episode was hilarious and im 44 and I never heard of Blippi before that episode TBH
I am looking forward to the inevitable future collaboration video with @LegalEagle during the trial...
legal eagle is a hack and an activist, and you have no chin
I thought the same, Stevie T needs to setup two channels, one for kids and one for adults.
"Hey can you come to this funeral??" Actually I just saw KDH posted a video and its gonna be sick, can't make it
I just recently rewatched the last ones. Super excited for this!
I’ve never seen the appeal of Stevie t , the fact he has that many followers boggles my mind
Well, people love low quality crap. Just look at Nickleback. I rest my case.
A majority of his fans are children.
Totally, I understand the child fanbase because their brains are still developing but he's so aggressively offputting I can barely stand watching the excerpts of him in this video
He is a really good guitar player and his "Shredemption" and "Guifakery" series were a lot of fun. He did them less and less as time went on though
It's possible that he bought many of his subscribers. I kept an eye on his channel, as it became popular, and he never produced as many videos as Rob Scallon or Jared Dines, but somehow surpassed them in terms of subscribers. Suspicious.
also blippy used to be someone who scatted from a ceiling and got banned from youtube as that was his harlem shake. shitting everywhere. he even had merch for it and had a website. deep youtube lore.
Yeah he poo'd on his friend and then became a children's entertainer. Really strange.
Ohh ok, when KDH first said the name I thought "Wait a minute, why does that name sound familiar... and not the good type of familiar..."
Never noticed this pattern. Thank you for making this video.
Watched ten minutes of one of ST's vids and was asking myself, "How is this even entertaining?"
Kids are very impressed by loud obnoxious presentations(hi tiktok). There is a reason he has the followers he does. As a boomer, listening to five seconds of his content sounds like nails on chalkboard.
Stop. Jerry Lewis, Jim Carrey, Pee Wee Herman, Sam Kinneson, Robin Williams... Loud and obnoxious is NOT generational.
I got into stevie t as a kid, he absolutely shreds how can you not find him cool AF as a little kid.
You're right, except one thing - UA-cam Kids only allows "for kids" videos - So they won't see the inappropriate ones. Of course, if parents are using regular UA-cam, that won't matter. But parents should NEVER do that with their kids anyway
Anyone who compares Stevie T to Jimmy Saville is not only grossly exaggerating ST's situation, but also egregiously downplaying the crimes of JS. I would go so far as to compare the two would be the most edgelord millennial comments so far since the actual millennium. There is no comparison whatsoever, and anyone who thinks so needs to read up on exactly what Jimmy Saville did. I put off commenting on this video because I'm not really one for getting into discussions, but really, this is one step down from comparing someone to Hitler. I mean, he's not Ian Watkins is he?
The fact that my nine year old nephew loves Stevie T, and he's only allowed to watch UA-cam Kids is damning enough.
Why on earth *didn't* he make a second channel for kids? He has enough of an audience to make that a viable thing. What the shit.
why?? it's called money. if you don't even realize that as an adult parent, how can you teach your kid?
Stevie T has hit rock bottom and kept digging.
he hit rock bottom when he started youtube, genuinely the worst guitar youtuber
Maybe Steve IS a bottom. He's certainly a digger too, a gold-digger that is.
Damn, we have very different definitions of "rock bottom"
@@KeepTheGates I'm sure people slamming heroin in the back alley they call home might agree. Cheers
This is far from the rock bottom for youtuber standards
KDH journalism puts New York Times, NBC, Wall Street journal, the telegraph, Fox News, etc. TO SHAME
Agreed
true, cause at least KDH doesn't have an extremely obvious bias
Not to take anything away from KDH, the guy is good, but those companies put themselves to shame.
Not a low bar to be fair
He did buy a McLaren off of it... So.... Morals < Money
God damnit. He was gone from my front page for a long time. 5 minutes ago I subbed you and now he is back. Damn you !!!
Objectively excellent work here. Journalism in it's best form. The worst- and creepiest - part about it for me (and judging from the Reddit comments, others as well) is this; Stevie T is clearly an intelligent person. So it's very difficult to understand where the disconnect is for him in his thought process regarding all of this. Specifically the part about how easily, _naturally_ even, it is for his no comments videos to lead young viewers to his comments enabled videos. Many of which use characters, topics and themes from the no comments videos. Thus exposing them to potential contact from nefarious parties. As well as content that their parents would deem unsuitable for their viewing.
I don't think it's a stretch whatsoever to say it comes off like low key grooming.
To reiterate my point, many of us believe he _HAS_ to know that. It's almost unfathomable to imagine that's he's totally oblivious to _any_ of this. It's also why although no one is accusing him of _being_ a "Jimmy Saville," it's not unfair in my opinion to _agree_ that all this gives off some bad vibes.
As for his manager's previous defense of him, I sincerely hope he learns from it. There is a tide turning in civil discourse regarding these kinds of concerns in relation to children. He should have known that and handled it differently and I hope he does moving forward. Deferring to your client in _this_ particular scenario will *NOT* help you in the long run. He should have declined comment while advising Stevie T to separate into two channels and admit it was a mistake. If Stevie T declined - if it were me, I'd have quietly resigned.
Idk this all sounds like pitchforks and mob justice to me. Yall are mad he broke the algorithm and getting bookoo plays cuz his channel is basically clickbait. I hope someone doesnt take justice into their own hands and shoot this guy cuz youtube branded him a pervert. This guy just wants his 15 seconds of fame and doesnt care how he gets it
Autism. Only thing I can think of as to why he wouldn’t draw those conclusions in his own mind.
I guess you are the UA-cam police then? Who are you to dictate what content should or shouldn't be allowed on UA-cam? There are no age-restrictions on any of his videos, so why are you on the cancel culture bandwagon here? Maybe someone should police YOUR content/viewing choices then?
This video is about as objective as somebody watching the 2013 Ghost Busters movie and claiming it's fine entertainment.
@@kiillabytez Yes, everyone's content should be policed to make sure it doesn't exploit vulnerable demographics. What a fucking stupid attempt at a counter-argument.
Viewers abso-fucking-lutely dictate what content should be here, because UA-cam are only in it for the money, they don't care what damage is done
@@mattd6085 What a fucking stupid reply you've made. Did someone piss in your corn flakes? It sure as hell wasn't me, so how about you step back, take a deep breath and try again?
Dude he could just have a second fucking channel for the kids crap if he REALLY wasn't just trying to garner a young audience with his main content. IMO that's the real smoking gun here.
At this point it's more like he should make a second channel for the content aimed at adults.
I’m on the fence until Stevie covers a lostprophets song
If Stevie had 2 different channels, one for kids and one for adults, there would be no issue. I wonder why he doesn't do this
money
because his videos are not meant for kids
@@jojoturambarwho gave you that lie
REAL TALK. Love the exposure of something undeniable conflicted and kudos for calling it out.
He should just have two channels if he wants to do this stuff
Kids will disregard 18+ warnings regardless. They see 18+ and they get angry that they can't watch something because of their age. And then make a work around to get past it. I've done this and I know other people who were on the internet at my age would do the same thing.
It's merely a HUGE coincidence that Subway runs ads on Stevie's channel...
you get ads? oh, and todays ads are based on your own internet history. or related to such things.
Fr his facial hair making him look like he touches kids
That Reddit post nailed it!! He is now known as Stevie Saville.HAHAHA
Just discovered your channel - keep up the good work in calling out the wrong doings in the guitar community. Especially the victory/Andertons
Metalheads love these sort of things just look what happens when Corey plays SpongeBob square pants
Tip: the SocialBlade extension on some browsers also reveals tags (and other useful stats) for UA-cam videos. requires an account login though.
Whatever he's doing is making him serious money. His house is mcmansion level ridiculousness, yet he seems to always be alone.
Regardless of his unique content he’s still a fantastic guitar player and has proven that in almost all of his videos.
True yet being irresponsible with your audiences, and possibly exposing minors to adult content is nothing to dismiss.
Unless you're fine with that. In which case, I don't know what to tell you except never have kids.
@@kaylons Do you ever read the description of peoples videos?
Because in my description whenever I can be arsed uploading. I leave a note that explains who I am and what my content is like.
@@Drummerboi_2002 I almost never read a description if I'm not searching for some specific info or haven't been directed towards it from in the video. A video also starts to play automatically when opening a link, so it immediately grabs at my attention. I don't think toddlers would read a description before watching the video, if they read it at all. You could expect the parents to verify every video before their child gets to watch it but that doesn't seem realistic. I don't have children but I'm guessing a child is pretty fast at learning to navigate within software that isn't child-locked with passwords.
Even if obvious children's videos, coming from a channel that offers adult as well as children's content, is only shown to a child through a curated playlist that only offers verified child-proof content, the child still would have the ability to click on the channel-name and enter the mixed bag of content. From that perspective, the advice KDH gave of creating a seperate kid-friendly channel for kid-friendly content seems like the only responsible thing to do, imo.
Kids don't read descriptions, kids click on videos recomended to them.
Dude really wants that child money.
That's not all he wants from children.
@@combatshock99 I'll try to come back to this if it comes true, but yeah I'm worried it might go down that direction
money rules the world
@fatalfleshformulas you forgot to put on your tin foil hat
another great informative video KDH.
I'm kinda new to the UA-cam world and this is pretty disappointing but I guess it shouldn't be surprising that this kind of thing goes on. This is good content. You have a new subscriber here.
I think these are valid criticisms but I'd have to say I don't think it means he's necessarily bad for the platform on the whole. He should honestly take these criticisms more tho.
So him sending his massive fan base to harass and bully a teenager for no good reason is good for the platform, nah, he can just leave youtube and it would be a very slightly better place.
Can’t really blame Stevie T for wanting to make more cash. One of the first things I noticed after becoming a parent was the insane amount of views the children videos and channels receive.
Kids content creators hit pay dirt when the autoplay function was activated. Parents just slap a kids video on and let it endlessly loop through a playlist over and over and over and over and over and..
It was never about the money... did you watch the video?
some said all youtube kids content video channel cant make money ,that youtuber called techmoan ,his channel about tech ,old hifi review stuffs, his video used to had a short muppet show at end of video ,at one point you see him less and less make that muppet show outro in his video, then one day he stop doing muppet show outro at all, i ask him why no more muppet show ? he said because youtube have a rule or something like you cant make profit from kids content video ,even whole 40mins video only 2,3 mins kids content , youtube wont pay you , im not sure how it work , maybe i misunderstood ,maybe someone can explain how it work.?
Stevie T is a fellow Canadian, 10 years+ younger than me, ( it shows). But what you revealed is abhorring. Love your perspective, it changed my mind about the guy,
General comment to KDH... I'm a 40 something aspiring female guitar player who bumped into your videos one day and mostly love them. You do a great job researching, being fair, and providing super interesting content on a range of guitar related stuff that I really enjoy. Keep up the interesting, good work. I tend to skip videos when you bring your friend in, because the tone changes and they are less "learny". ;) But overall, really enjoy your content and tone. I never heard of this Steve T guy, but this was really interesting, as usual. :)
I swear to god as a parent I often saw the parallels between Stevie T and Blippi, I've even posted on several Facebook groups that the guy is basically the Blippi of guitar UA-camrs. The fact he actually dressed up as him absolutely blows my mind.
Sorry we're all mad about this... and yet we're going to McDonalds later and buying a happy meal literally made of poison for our kids.
And then spanking them around their developing heads if they act like children...parenting 101. I don't like kids content on the internet, or Stevie T, but the world is full of lazy hypocrites who can't be bothered to be good parents because effort is hard.
Love the spooky music in the background, like he's exposing a murderer or something. LOL
hes so talented bro i miss his old content
He needs to have separate channels for each type of content because yes it's reckless
and he is still a bully, so...
Does Stevie T have an inside voice?
Yeah, autism😂
There is only one problem- if you look at his content, most of it is intended to appeal to people of his own age group, not children. His “made for kids” videos are very few (and only made quite recently, actually) in comparison to the vast majority of content that is otherwise geared towards much older audiences. You cannot demand a UA-camr to upload only certain kinds of videos because you feel like they’re giving mixed signals or whatever- that’s just your opinion.
Besides, as you mentioned, Steve has very young nieces and a nephew, so being their uncle, he would want to make videos that would appeal to them, or since he is familiar with what they watch, he might have had ideas for videos featuring characters his nieces and nephew might be familiar with, as would their parents.
I don’t watch Blippi by myself, but I have a baby cousin who does, and sometimes I hang around and watch Blippi with him just to keep him company. So when Steve made that video of Blippi reacting to extreme metal music, I thought it was funny and enjoyed the video.
It seems like you are reading way too much into Steve’s behaviour here, and without giving any details about the “third party software” you used to examine what tags he uses under the videos, we could even say that you’re making this whole thing up just to start drama with Steve. The fact that he hasn’t responded to any of these claims you have made should say something with regards to the consistency of his character, specifically that of being someone who prefers to keep to himself and let his content speak for itself. He doesn’t market to kids, but kids will watch whatever the hell they want. I know, because I was a kid myself and I have seen a lot of things online which I wasn’t actually supposed to.
You cannot make demands for someone to change the content of their channel just because kids make up a significant amount of the audience. Kids will be kids. That’s not in the UA-camr’s hands necessarily. Parents are the ones who are responsible for monitoring what kids see online. Not the UA-camrs.
And here’s something else- the stupidest part of this video is the clip where Stevie says this: “so I did a couple of kids videos… I thought *for once* I would make some videos that would appeal to my younger audience…”.
Logically, this would imply that his previous videos, i.e. the ones that he made before making the recent kids videos, were *not* intended to appeal to kids. The opposite of a kid would be an adult. Therefore, his previous videos were intended for an older audience, not a younger audience. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
Certainly feels like someone with a significantly smaller channel is clout chasing someone with a big, big channel. Lost my sub today
Best comment, thank you.
Fucking nailed it!
I work with a wanna be guitar player that doesn’t own a guitar. He watches Steve and quotes him.
I think you need to let this go, while I’m not a huge Stevie T. Fan, I don’t see any “ill will” from him or that “he’s trying to market to a kids audience and introducing adult themes”, he just seems goofy and immature.
This is an old discussion, Kiss made comic books and dolls, a lot of young people started coming to their shows, were they supposed to stop playing Love Gun because of that, and disregard the 90% of the audience that are adults and paid to hear Love Gun?
People should watch out for the nonces in public and online, but I’ve seen zero evidence of Stevie T. being that.
It’s weird to me how some people can be so concerned about very innocuous things, but be completely fine with overtly bad things, especially towards children, like performing all age drag burlesque shows for kids, discussing and questioning adult themes with small children, etc.
People have lost the ability to make logical distinctions about where the line should be, they’re fine with people assaulting children as long as they respected their pronouns.
It’s bonkers!
Creating a separate channel for kids would be an easy fix. Tons of UA-camrs have done that, and I really hope he considers it. I don't think many of his adult subscribers would be too thrilled about getting more children's videos on his channel.
Comparing Steve to Jimmy Saville is one helluva stretch, though. I know his sort of awkward, immature humor can make people uncomfortable, but I never got the impression that he was a nasty person. He's about as dangerous as a Family Guy episode.
Dude is annoying . It’s cringe and embarrassing to watch. I don’t get all the people fawning over him in the comment section. There is another creator who teaches guitar and all he does is act angry and yell in every yt short he does. shit is weird af. Of course he sells a course . So in 52 weeks I’ll have the ultimate toan and shredzz
Anyways this is my second video I’ve watched by you and I like your vibe. Subbed
It's his paid subscribers.
Envious haters gonna hate.
You ever run that software on your own videos.. to verify the legitimacy.. apparently i put tags on all my videos..🤦♂️
I did not!
Only some of them..
Excellent job! Perfect way to make an 'I told you so...' video without gloating.
Steve the type of friend that you invite to sneak out and they literally can’t whisper so y’all get caught
I imagine the only people who say that Stevie T's videos are not aimed at children are young, immature teenagers with no self awareness of their own immaturity. Any adult can see that his videos are for children.
And that statement definitely makes you look like a super immature person who can't understand how jealous this guy is for not having skills similar to steve, so now he's just targeting him in other ways.
@@reesmetalguitarshow7177 his jealousy for him is not relevant to the fact that Stevie’s videos are clearly aimed at children. Anyone with a brain can reach that conclusion.
@@reesmetalguitarshow7177 Congratulations on proving OP's point so well
I'm an adult and I love watching stevie t. Some of kdh points I do think are valid, I don't make stevie out to be a hero he's obviously not, but I think it's really just a case of people not liking his content so they find things wrong with it. If you don't like him don't watch him.
@@kingofthesnakes2396 yeah if you enjoy his content, watch it by all means. Just making the point that it’s clearly aimed at kids and anyone who says otherwise is wrong.
WHY IS HE YELLING? WHY AM I YELLING?
WHAT? SPEAK UP
I love Steve t but I respect ur points
KDH doesn't miss.
KDH is UA-cam's Chris Hansen.
Stevie t is as entertaining as my drunk father at family gatherings.... (he gets thrown out at every gathering)
When I first found you years ago I was taken aback at you doing callout videos. Now I see they’re very helpful/necessary to point out these issues. Thanks KDH
@Official_KDH6 lmao
GET your signature series Stevie T BUTT PLUG!!!
His fucking thumbnail faces are more heinous than any content he could ever upload
For some, at the end of the day, it’s about money, and recognition. There is a lot of self serving narcissistic musicians out there, and sadly, you’ve shown us the internet is no different from the stage when it comes to entertainment….
Do you realize how unbelievably slow you must be in order to realizing this at THIS point in time?
@@noname-ng6sj not sure if this is meant as some king of back handed slight toward me. If it is, then i guess you must be such a prolific human that it gives you great joy in the knowledge that you’re superior to everyone. Yet, I’m not so sure. How bout you show us some amazing content, that way when you insult folks, it has substance?
Reading the comments make me want to pull my hair out.
-The blatant disregard of violating the COPPA.
-The disregard of the betterhelp 'non-advertisements'.
-The Richard Benson slander and bullying.
-The targeted harassment to amateur guitarists mentioned in KDH's earlier videos
-The non disclosed advertisements for guitar product endorsements, as well as the mobile game he kept shilling
-"I have depression/anxiety" excuse to deflect any criticism and invalidates any accusations of him having the ability to bully others for their mental illnesses
but no KDH is just "jealous" of Stevie. Christ.
The best part of this whole saga was the response videos where grown men open the video with "by the way, I enjoy Stevie's content..."
i knew this video was coming! well done.
To be fair, his first Blippi video isn't really for kids given his jokes in it. Hense why it has comments. However, nothing in his videos is really dangerous towards children. I mean sure he cusses, but those are just words. He could have done a lot worse.
Edit: Also, you underestimate the intelligence on some kids. Sure they're no geniuses, but they at least have a shred of common sense in their brain and know what NOT to replicate in what they're watching.
He could have just toured with Dragonforce and called it a career but he thought "nah, I'd rather exploit children from the comfort of home."
Lmao reaching
As a viewer of Stevie T... I am worried. I mainly came for the wild ADHD fueled memefests, but this genuinely makes me see him in a different light, and I hope, so badly, he is not doing what I think he is doing.
does he have adhd?
Ooophfffff that's a sickening thought.
As obnoxious as Stevie t is he did inspire a lot of people like me to learn to play the guitar and pick up a new skill
