Gus Dapperton is creating a new direction for lyric videos. I remember as a kid watching lyric videos 100 times over to learn every single line, and to this day, I'm still guilty of loving them. The difference now is that many are over-edited, crazy-themed, and can be kind of intimidating. However, Gus Dapperton decided the best way to get fans to learn the lyrics is to incorporate them. So, in the past few weeks, he did just that.
His newest single "Post Humorous," is a sad love song but with an upbeat melody, creating an everyday mood influencer. This is the second single to be released and is expected to find its way on the album alongside "First Aid." The Orca album will debut to most streaming platforms on September 18th (so go mark your calendars).
Since the release of "Post Humorous," Gus has been featured on the cover of Spotify's LOREM playlist, climbed the music and radio charts, performed live from his living room, and is now getting his fans involved. Gus Dapperton is unlike any artist you've ever heard. With a unique sound and look, he is leaving his impression on the music industry. It can be expected that you will be adding these euphoric tunes to your playlists in the next few months.
After releasing two lyric videos, you can now watch a couple of entertaining videos to learn the words. The first video was released a little over a month ago and features all of his friends. This new lyric video is a compilation of his fans' submissions. The best part was he personally watched them and edited the video. The official video is coming very soon so you can look forward to that one too.
I am predicting that this new style of lyric videos is going to blow up soon. With it premiering on August 14th, it already has over 7,000 views and is growing daily. Go check it out to see what all this hype is about.
