How Kwebbelkop Lost His Entire Audience In 1 Year
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ก.ย. 2024
- For over 6 years, 100 million views per month was the norm for Kwebbelkop. However, in mid 2021, something changed. In the 12 months that followed May 2021, Kwebbelkop's viewership fell by approximately 90% to an average of between 5 and 20 million per month. What caused this decline? Was it something to do with his break up with Azzyland? Or the disintegration of the Robust group with Jelly and Slogo / Slogoman? Was it something to do with his new second channel Bloo? Or perhaps something to do with him feeling the need to flaunt his wealth? This video will explore How Kwebbelkop Lost His Entire Audience In 1 Year.
Thank you guys for watching, like and sub if you enjoyed, SunnyV2 XO ❤ - บันเทิง

Kwebbelkop is just another “kid friendly” channel with over exaggerated thumbnails that are colorful so they can literally grab the attention of 5 year olds, He hasn’t changed or evolved his content and has stayed the same
We have the same profile pic
he’s used his girlfriend for thumbnails before
I remember when he was fun to watch, with Golf It with Jelly and Slogo

You know you’ve hit rock bottom when SunnyV2 makes a high quality documentary on you
well only if its a video about you falling off
Like cherdleys or Kritikal?
@Hello lol it's funny because around 2020-2021 i see kwebbelkop at my facebook feed
This comment is incredibly weird.
How do you know you made it (past tense)?
SunnyV2 makes a documentary about your decline.
I’m super open for feedback everyone! So please share your thoughts, opinions, tips and tricks here! It would help me out a lot and I’m 100% dedicated to make the channel great again. Sometimes you really need a push into the right direction, like this video. Thanks!
I think it’s important to update and change your content so it stays relevant.
bruh moment
Just read all the top comments on this video man
Simple...play more videogames. Try out different games. Review memes. Have a subreddit. Do reaction content. Just do more things that isn't the same formula.
Make better content
The fact that he now employs AI on his MAIN CHANNEL is a true testimony to his current mindset.
and seeing the AIs justification to exist pulling a childlike tantrum was just so horrifying, i jave never been in such a steep uncanny valley before, and keeps bragging about how can he completely outsource everything of a video on AI, well that is just bad
His viewcount says it all @@ferdinand12390
People really want to hate on Kwebbelkop for using AI but when other people do it it's fine. Honestly just has to do with your previous audience more than anything.
I don't support Kwebbelkop AI, but that's because it is so obviously low quality and not anything like what his channel previously was. If you want to watch that brainrot, go ahead.
that he’s just a lazy hack who used the others until they forced him out
This guy posted one video each day for 10 years. I don't think there is anything that I ever managed to do with such consistency. Respect.
I've taken at least 2 sh!ts a day for over 15 yrs (previous to that i was a vegan. it sucked)
You graduate high school. You worked jobs. Than yes you have. Both of which far more impressive. Than a idiot uploading lame videos. Of them babbling and playing video games.

As long as TH-cam channels fail he’ll always have material.
It is inevitable.
I hope the last video Sunny ever does is a retrospective of his own channel. I think that'd be the best send-off possible for his channel.

I’ve never heard of him before, but the guy strikes me as lost. Being overworked, going through a breakup, and distancing yourself from friends is a lot on the psyche, and that’s not taking into account the amount of pressure that running such a large channel is likely to place on you. I think the guy needed a vacation a long time ago, and now he’s just spiraling (trying to find himself in a sense). But again, I’ve never heard of him before, so I’m just going off my impressions from this video.

“Welcome to my $7.5 million house and give me 100k likes.” Whoa buddy. Slow down.
It's really crazy how so many "Kid Friendly" gaming channels just flat out have been falling apart recently. These people haven't change how they make their content over the years and simply think when these kids grow up, new kids will take their place. But what many don't realize is what worked for the previous generation doesn't always work for the next, TH-camrs need to constantly shift how they make content to survive, and there are very few that don't need to because of a dedicated fanbase.
Kwebblekop however is an example of how your own personal feelings and changes in your friendships, business partners, and content so much in such a short amount of time will inevitably ruin you, and the sad part is that his friends are still very successful, and he threw them away trying to change. Now he's become essentially another Ricegum, constantly flexing all the money he's made over the years and spending it on things he doesn't need, getting into NFT scams and fragmenting his time so much his main channel is now dying.
Let this be a lesson to all, don't become a Kwebblekop, don't think that massively changing your content in such a short period of time will work, Cause it doesn't. Don't think buying all these items and luxuries will make those losses go away, they won't. And, most of all, don't fragment your time and money into pointless amounts of editors and other projects you may never finish, cause in the end that's just time and money wasted, there's a reason some of the biggest youtubers only have 2-3 editors and not over 10.
The only scenario where this works is Flamingo, 10 years of pretty much the same stuff and still pulling 50 million views a week

Hey man, think about it this way: How long did it take you to get burnt out on your favorite video game? A year? two years? This guy spent 10 years uploading daily and then has a falling out with friends. That stuff happens in life. As soon as he wants to slow down and celebrate his success people turn their backs on him. That's kinda fucked up you ask me. Would it be better if he hid his wealth and continued to upload daily if he hated his life in the process? Sorry, I don't think it's as straightforward as Sunny makes it out to be.
@@stevob6609 I agreed with you until you said they turned his back on him, from most peoples account, other than Jordi himself, Jordi turns on other people and i've always felt he had a somewhat untrustworthy aura if that makes any sense, anyways. He seems like he'd be more than willing to turn on someone if it upped his viewcount, or furthered some other goal in his life, tbh.
@@DeadSpacedOut I didnt get this vibe at all, i get more of a wanting to do other things creatively. I remeber a break in his channel where he made very well eddited, drone footage and cinematic videos about the building and creating his dream home years ago. I see it as being a creative outlet. If this is true then theres wasssss a part of him that doesnt care about views (child content...jelly..slogo) more on the creative side (new youtube channel). Now i dont think he cares. If ur taking about what happened to tiger,,,then thats speculation. IF your taking about jelly and slogo... he gave a soild reason to leave..only his freinds will see that in him..rest speculation.
Honestly I just want the trio of Josh, Jordi and Jelly back again. Their content back then was really entertaining and really fun to wait for new videos every week! 2015-2017 were the golden years of this three. Love to see them again back with a great contents
How old are you? 10 years old? LMFAO
Same!
but what the hell would crainer do
@@manthespoon he has already left wym
@@manthespoon crainer doesn't even do videos with them anymore lol
I think his downfall was a natural result of his own interest. I think you mention a couple of times that he seems oblivious too it but he seems very switched on and I'm sure he was conscious of it happening. It just seems like a conscious decision to grow his other interests even if it might make his main channel suffer. Uploading every day for 10 years straight will tire every normal person out, switching it up by doing different kinds of content or creating a business seems like a perfectly rational way to change it up from the monotony of making fortnite videos every day.
I surely agree with that if you feel creatively dead for years but keep doing the same thing your drive will burn out overtime
Exactly, i think he eventually didn't care about it as much.
id fully agree with you except changing it up doesn't really apply if you are a youtuber who's "changing it up" by starting a different channel. even with different topics or subject material it's no different than a circle k owner opening a 2nd circle k in a shitty area because they got bored running the first circle k, same shit nothing actually new or different.
I agree. And being as deeply invested into the business aspects of TH-cam, I can see how he'd suddenly find himself wanting to say fuck it (one of the clips shown in this video of his penthouse tour has a picture with that as it's main message) and go far more into business and trying new things within it. It also seems he lacks the rational choice of picking his focus. Does he want to focus more on the business end of things? Or more on the content creation side of the spectrum? Or maybe more of a host? Instead of picking, he's trying all three, and that's definitely going to cause issues.
Wouldn’t it be cool if these types of channels grew up with their audience
I like that sunny isn't really against the people he speaks about usually, but moreso pointing out the flaws and hoping they learn from his criticism and their own downfall. Not including, like, the really really bad guys ofc.
I won't say that. The entire video is Sunny wanting Kwebelcop's stagnation to be the result of braghing when in reality his views have been declining for years. Sunny is basically forcing a moral where it's not really needed.
@@spicewilliam9786 but did he lie though? Yes, his views have been dropping for years but they dropped TREMENDOUSLY after all of this that's been happening which goes against his previous morals and claims. It was a steady drop, but he was still doing millions of views. Now he can't even get higher than 10 million let alone 20.
@@SpecificValio it's not exactly a lie. It's more of a moral claim that Sunny really wants to be the case. He wants to believe that boasting about wealth resulted in the channel's decline when its more the result of outside factors. But I understand; it's satisfying to oversimplify things like this. It gives us the illusion of order in this chaotic world we live in.

At first, I was like: "It's sad that this Kwebbelkop guy lost so many views, he seemed like a genuine guy." But the moment he started becoming Jake Paul, I knew he deserved everything.
He picking the wrong paths
He was a funny good guy but him splitting up with slogo and jelly sent him on a bad rollercoaster.
He sounds like a trend chaser, I've never heard of this guy 15 min ago so, does that sound off base?
I've been trying to become a better person for the past 2 months, I'd say I've gotten pretty far, but I would also pick up tidbits here and there.
Let me tell you this; Kwebbelkop is a example of what you should *not* do.
A ‘genuine’ guy? Are.. you kidding? Literally every single aspect of that guys personality SCREAMS “I’m just acting this way for the camera”. Like blatantly one of the least genuine people I’ve ever seen. It terrifies me that kids growing up with these people as their idols can’t tell the difference
It’s such a shame. I loved watching him a couple years back and loved his GTA and gold videos with Jelly and Slogo. Shame what’s happened, but that just seems to be how TH-camrs eventually end up when they get more and more successful
He always made trash videos
I used to watch his stunt challenge videos but he slowly fell off

No. Sunny needs to quit youtube instead.
@@Andrei_2011yeah, no.
This video practically glosses over the fact that he most likely did not care that his channel was dying, he was simply burnt out of doing the same thing. He started doing something new with Bloo and it was working well, he celebrated it because it was a change from the past 10 years. You can not expect daily uploads for 10 years and not expect him to be burnt out. He's branching out to find new interests and new ways to success, not simply to optimize his hours works to view count.
TBF, Kweb replied in the comments and generally agreed with the criticism. In my own opinion, it appears legitimate criticism that Kweb's strategy of fewer-but-higher-quality videos didn't actually happen.

I've know some of channels Sunny has done videos on, but it's still fascinating how he mentions several TH-camrs will double digit million subscribers and I've never heard their names even in passing. Just gives you an inkling how fucking huge this platform is.

Still respect with his 10 year consistency. Everyone has their own downfall and it's a natural occurence. Sometime around the future, most of our favourite youtubers will undergo the same experience. Downfall ain't an end, it's also just a transition to something new whether we are ready or not

@@N0xiety since a lot of people have gotten downfalls/irrelevancy, this is an easy job for him, plus not to mention his final hours videos, and the exposing ones too
I mean true, but... arguably if all you do is report on others than you never really succeeded in "your" channel in the first place. All you technically did was just piggy back off others success (or there for lack of success) to create content without ever having to actually come up with a original thought to begin with. No offense to this channel (idk who he is so obviously nothing personal) but in general I always have a slight.. gripe with reaction style channels for the very fact that they're just making content off of someone else's ideas. Nothing original about it but hey in the end there's nothing wrong with it.

Blows my mind that so many people actually watch these muppets play video games.
This aged perfectly
One thing that is interesting is that Azzyland has also lost roughly 90% of her viewerbase over the past 2 years, which shows that maybe the whole reaction style content is what is causing lower viewer counts (which is something both kwebbelkop and azzy have done).
Both of them have sticked to and relied on only that type of content too much. I love both Azzy and Jordi. Used to actively watch them back in 2019-2020 ish.
But after watching one type of content for too long, it becomes stale and boring, haven't been able to keep up with them. I do hope this video gives not only Jordi or Azzy, but other reaction channels as well, the push they need to try other things, and perhaps gain their viewership back.

I mean, it seems like he's just like every other artist. You create when you're passionate. If you're not feeling it anymore, then it becomes a slog to create. To me he tried to make it more interesting by collaboration, new projects, etc but found it wasn't enough. This really isn't a big tea drop or tell all. It's the standard story of all artists who become popular for one specific thing, and feel obligated to keep that going.
The only thing driving these TH-camrs initially is passion for what they do. They do what they enjoy and this results in passion in them. But after around 4-5 years, doing the same type of content gets tiring and boring which leads to decrease in passion.
After this 4-5 year period, things change. Now, the only thing driving these TH-camrs is views which generate income through TH-cam. And so they think that doing TH-cam is no longer worth it. But due to money, they have to milk as much as possible.
To milk, TH-camrs will now create less interesting content such as reaction videos. This is the general pattern in many TH-camrs such as Kwebbelkop, XpertThief,
GuavaJuice and Ricegum.
It is always going to soar high to millions of views in one year and then stay high for another year and then within the next few years plunge to 500K-1M views.
If one no longer enjoys doing something, they should stop instead of stressing and tiring out just for money. Money can never buy happiness most of the time.

yea he's my childhood, but now the only youtuber that I still watch till this day is vanoss and pewdiepie
He is your childhood? You guys are weird
I’m actually proud of Jordi for watching this video all the way through, studying it, and using it positively. He even asked for advice from this community. I did not expect to see him here at all.
I used to watch Kwebblekop before his decline began, and I do remember feeling like his content just started to stray away from what I had originally subscribed for. I don’t think I unsubscribed but I did turn notifications off. But I think I’ll turn them back in because I am interested in where he’ll take his channel in the future.
can you please tell me where he responded to this video
@@depravedsouls9975 it’s in the comment section
@@sj5231 yeah I saw it
Yea, i still sometimes watch his human fall, flat videos and old old gta videos for nostalgia.
I'm surprised he actually watched through it!
He’s made more money than most people will ever have. He’s reached levels of success that many TH-camrs wish to succeed to. At this point, I can’t imagine he cares that much about TH-cam
it's his job and life of course he cares about it
@@superyeah4ever2 Everyone needs a change eventually
he spent over ten years on the channel. why you think he no care
Dude sounds like he needs a holiday
thing is though, he either has to accept he peaked and know his youtube carrier is partly over which is very tough to accept mentally and ego wise, or he has to refocus his priorities and refind his funk. It looks like he is not doing either of them, which creates a downfall that will be very hard to recover from
this aged well
I gotta say, I LOVED Jordi, Jelly, and Josh playing Gmod, GTA 5, etc. I remember seeing the decline of his connection with the others, and becoming very sad that someone I would watch every day, sometimes multiple times a day, was changing in a way I personally didn't favor. Sometimes I still go back to my favorite prop hunt, or GTA races, or ball tag as I eat or study and smile to myself.
Bro I loved their GTA content all those years ago. Sad to see it go so far downhill.
he was my childhood, i hated seeing his content just lose quality over time

@They're trying to weaponize it ever since he became a react channel
Watching your content, it’s fascinating to see a pattern emerging …save your money people- this “life” is as short as a professional athletes. It’s realistically unsustainable. Kudos to content creators, double props to those who evolve, but they are few and far between. It doesn’t matter what kind of content you create, it eventually loses its joy.
Only ball out if you have a cause for celebrating otherwise your just filling the void
Right on point. The athlete comparison is pretty perfect, you can only maintain your drive and ability for so long, but unlike most pro athletes, these TH-camrs aren't making 7 figures to motivate them. I feel the only way you can realistically ever build a sustainable career out of TH-cam is to truly build an untouchable brand or leave and expand out into the corporate entertainment world.
The pattern is very very clear
Yes that pattern is bad work ethic, stagnation and complacency. Essentially, when you become generally lazy or ungrateful for what you have, what you have will disappear very quickly.
Your comment is sad
8:40 well this aged well
I remember watching Kwebblekop when I was in High school back in 2014. Loved his og GTA races with Slogoman and Jelly. After a year or so, I completely forgot about them until now. It's surreal seeing how much they grew and how much everything changed.
LOL WAIT TILL YOURE 30 BUDDY
I knew him cuz of Azzyland, I was 11 yrs old when I first watched their videos but I also forgot them after a year and seeing him here like this just makes me question why I even watched the videos....
Now I'm more of a K-pop stan and I watch or read bl

He is so respectful. He even gives his own opinions (not just the internets) and gives suggestions to help. Nice job SunnyV2, good video
Normal ass video, you can tell you cooked your brain watching idiots he talks about
Kwebbelkop suck
Never heard of this guy before as I don't play or watch the games he seems to be focusing on, but from watching just this video, it looked to me as if his ego grew massively because of his insecurities, thus he felt the need for validation by flexing on the little guys and showing to the world how much of an important person he is and how everyone should respect or even worship him lol. Those are the kind of people everyone should avoid because they don't care about anyone beside themselves and their whole world revolve around only themselves.
Jordie wasn't always like that. I really liked the Robust crew and the games they played until he kinda just left and did his own thing. Makes no sense what he did. He fell off from the deep end.
In summary: He is a Narcissist
i dont agree when you say that we should avoid those kind of people because i think some people(family friends and such) are able to change these persons for the better
same here. Never heard of him. I just stumbled upon this video and even tho I'm not a gaming addict, the story ring true. I also learned this in life: do NOT make yourself superior to other people. I even learned that Scott Kilmer, the biggest car youtube channel in the world, he STILL looks like some old dude fixing cars and makes MORE than this guy and does not look like a mulit millionaire making him more like his every day fans.
Scotty Kilmer has been uploading videos SINCE 2007 EVERY DAY. For a 70 year old guy. And this young buck is TIRED???
He wasn't always like this. As said in the video, he probaly just feels out of power due to the rapidly reclining views and does what any TH-camr would try to do; save his channel. It's sad that he changed.
Sunny's monthly viewership has skyrocketed lately, doing his best month yet.
You deserve every view with these top notch content you provide.
I used to be a massive fan of Jordi, and I still carry a huge amount of respect for him. Lots of people get outed as pedos or liars or racists, and I'm 'happy' that Jordi is one of the few who's 'only' suffering from overworking himself too hard. This guy -deserves- NEEDS a vacation. And also deserves it.
Mental spiral.
Underrated comment. I would rather have my favorite TH-camr get “cancelled” for celebrating his success than to find out hes a Pedo or Racist or Scammer
He slowly became a joke, being more and more cringy
@@Valkied would rather be considered by incels as Cringey than to be known by the world as a Pedo
@@Valkied so being cringy is worse than being exposed as a pedo, ok
what you also seem to miss in many of these episodes (outside maybe the game itself just losing popularity due to aging viewers) is that the recommended thing of youtube changed... these days youtube recommends me 8 year old videos ive already seen but i hardly ever get new content of people im subbed to offered unless i just happened to have viewed a video of them very recent
Facts bro, Ive noticed that too it doesn't recommend it to me anymore cuz I don't really watch gaming videos that much anymore
when you scroll through the recommended tab after 7-10 videos youtube starts to recommend things you already watched
I noticed that too, at first TH-cam would blast me with the same videos after I accidentally clicked on a video once, but now it's like simply digging through my watch history and being like: "yo bro don't forget to watch this again!"
One trick I have to get new ish content is spending a couple minutes/an hour constantly refreshing your youtube home page and marking every video as "I'm not interested".
do this long enough and you're start to see a very wide mix of videos from old creators to people you've never heard about.
The only draw back is that it will kinda reset your "signature" and make it hard for the bot to start recommending stuff you used to watch, but after a couple weeks you're start seeing your old videos plus a good picking of new videos :)
exactly its why jake paul thinks hes a boxer and keeps beating up managers at denny’s versus real fighters! its cuz the average jake pauler is like 23 now!
mate it even recommends me videos I watched yesterday
Well,it’s even worse.
If perfectly paused at 10:42 the emphatic "Yeah!!" that is delivered is juxtaposed with a facial expression that depicts pain, or anxiety.
It instantly reminds me of when someone replies "yes" to a question while shaking their head "no". The human brain is so wrapped up in creating a convincing façade with words that it loses control over physical responses and our bodies wind up telling the truth
This is the first time I’ve heard someone else describe the action of shaking your head “yes”.
Unrelated to your comment, but to me it seems like saying “yes” while shaking your head is dismissing the idea the the answer could be “no”
Like “Do you love me?”
“Of corse I do.” (Shaking head like “Why must you ask that?”)
Or it’s like saying “duh” in response to an obvious question
Damn.. he must realize this but just from that one shot of his penthouse it's immediately obvious to anyone living in Amsterdam exactly where he lives 😅 I guess he doesn't care

@@LegalizeSlaverywhat happened?
@Nightmare2.03 If you Look at his newer content, he now uses AI, and I think that's genuinely lazy. If you want to quit youtube, make a video explaining to your fans that you're gonna quit, not just have AI make everything for you. In his recent video "ending kwebblekop AI", he makes an apology to his fans which is of course made by AI itself, but the real kwebblekop intervened in the last few seconds and said "Thank you", which had more emotion that the entire rest of this video. This proves that AI doesn't have the emotional or creative ability unlike humans

@@thedogethatgames dudes a multimillionaire he doesn’t care about TH-cam
Tbf, he hasn't fall as much as others who have been features on this channel. And I mean, he still has A LOT of money and probably after 10 years, actually enjoying his hard wok and money. On top of that, I'm sure he's invested some of his money in stuff outside of his TH-cam channel now, who might be making it the same amount if not more than what he's "dropping" on TH-cam. We don't know really, but I bet he's still doing A LOT better than most of us financially (and I know that's not everything, but that's usually one of our main stress factors).
This is the perfect definition of biting the hand that feeds you. If he’s going to brag about multi million dollar purchases and neglect the channel his fans grew to love over the years he deserves this decline and the further decline he will face. It won’t be long until those high profile purchases are up on the market for sale

Exactly
Yeah same
Honestly, he doesnt seem like a bad guy, I really think the youtuber concept of uploading videos every single day for years that does get people success just always ends in the youtuber burning out hard and collapsing in on themselves. It's just not healthy. Theres many reasons why normal jobs have days where people dont work.
the kinda messed up thing is thanks to the way TH-cam is now, they want that. So its not so much the creators deciding 'i'm gonna do this', its 'i need to do this because otherwise i'll be ignored'. Only a few years ago, you could make an adsense account, monetize your channel, and do that without uploading a single video. I know because I did it. Now, you need to meet criteria, standards, 'this many videos, that many followers,' you could do it all and still get told 'no'. Imagine doing all of that, but seeing people like Darksydephil and wingsofredemption just coasting by. TH-cam's just very good at getting a ton of views from people before they even agree to rewards them for that work. And it leads to stuff like, well.... Kwebbelkop

@@abraham4853 Considering what we've seen so far, that's the most optimistcal and delusional scenario. He has literally become the sterotype of your average souless youtuber with an inflated ego of 100, with no regard for the actions he makes.
