  1. They might wanna check YouTube and the other social media pages as like Instagram etc. I've had this for years and I've been dancing since I was 5 all self taught but no real credit just like so many other black folk.

    Just look at my YouTube 109 subscribers and I've been on YouTube since the beginning. All of these social media pages are a joke

  2. The old saying "It takes a village to raise a child" seemed to apply here. I like Tik Tok and learn so much about many things. From cooking to Driving Simi trucks. I also feel a sense of belonging unlike Twitter and other social media. As an older Tik Tok, I also found myself as "the old wise man". Many of these kids do not understand or have that support coming from their level. I also found other ppl from my own generation that we share many things from culture to whatever. I don't do the dancing but I do share a good laugh when it's funny and many of the news you find on the air anywhere is on Tik Tok first most times.
