The rise of Corpse (Corpse Husband), JXDN (Jaden Hossler) and other Tik Tok-native artists says a lot about the changing nature of music, especially for rock bands. I discuss:
* How Corpse’s songs “E-Girls Are Ruining My Life” (the “choke me” song) and “Miss You” blew up after his Among Us game stream with PewDiePie
* Why everybody from Pokimane to AOC are simping for Corpse’s voice and face reveal
* How TikTok made JXDN into a star, got the attention of Travis Barker and helped his songs like “Pray”, “Angels & Demons” and “So What!” blow up
