I had never heard of The Island Boys before and knowing they exist is one more reason not to go near TikTok.
Preach
same
I find people like you hilarious because you go to instagram and watch the reels that are Tiktoks.. LOL
"I'm not going to go on the biggest app in the world for the last 2 years because of Island Boys"
How can i become a hero like you?
@@chemzdaddy7379 no, I personally only use RUclips. and if I’m watching shorts it’s content curated to me. if you’re getting TikTok’s it’s because you actively watch TikTok’s and go out of your way to do so, so the platform gives you more content like that. But I wouldn’t expect you to know that since your life skills probably consist of counterintuitive life hacks from tiktok
their music can be useful. if someone comes up to you and asks what you are listening to but you dont wanna talk to them just say the island boys and they'll never talk to you again
whats sad about the island boys is that they have parents and those parents have to look at them and think "i made this"
Nah their parents definitely killed themselves by now.
They're actually wealthy too. It's literally two rich white boys that want to be gangster rappers without any skill or work.
@@x0gucx I’m honestly shocked about that one. I’m surprised their parents haven’t bought them a studio to chase their dreams 😅
"like father, like son"?
it's the parents that is the whole reason for who they are. if i had kids they would never grow up to do stupid shit like this. a good parent raises their kids properly and is not afraid to hurt some feelings if it means a lesson will be learned in the long run. that's the problem with todays parents. men turned in to soy boys so they refuse to be men and raise their kids properly or there just ain't even any man in the family att all and the mom just babies the kid and refuses to actually take controll and raise the fuck properly.
They’re a one-hit wonder. In the age of social media and especially Tiktok, flashes in the pan burn more brightly and for less time than ever before. No reason to complicate it
Not really a one-hit wonder, their one song didn't even pop off.
@@bt70a9 that’s because 99% of people who have heard the song didn’t hear it on Spotify or Apple Music or whatever, but on social media. I’d definitely say it popped off, just in a non-traditional way
In my day a one hit wonder needed a hit not a meme song
1 hit wonder? all it takes is 1 shot dumbass. make a better roast.
you never heard the eminem song ? eminem was also a 1 hit wonder, but he made it work.
Its a one flop disaster
As a parent, it would hurt having 1 kid who is a fool but i would overlook it over time...But having 2 identical fools would kill me every single day
Not sure about their mom but Ik they said their Dad past away which I feel is the way they are.
Yeah YOU would say that.
They are a meme. Nobody unironically likes their content for any reason but to laugh at them. It's a one note joke that doesn't get funnier the 1000th time you see it. Maybe if they were self-aware about everything they could have made something more out of it, but they take themselves too seriously.
Face tattoos 🤣🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦
It is a proof that comedy has no boundries and all that is can be funny. Beside, common sense is not granted (probably it is not so common too as the name suggest itself).
People want to live in grandeur and thats why they are willing to beleive in anything or in anyone. good day
When you get rich enough fast enough, you can call yourself anything... even a rapper.....
@@SYN_Beezt it’s hilarious that people think they are rich.
@@MrSqurk ehhh, no need to think, when you can just plainly look at the immutable, publicly accessible proof, documented permanently, inarguably....
Asmon needs to get an alliance tattoo on his forehead and a mouse permanently bonded on his fingers to show these casuals he’s the real deal
Don't forget the giant shoulderpads and blue cape.
He's not
We can call them Exstreamers a new breed of Extreme Streamers
@@nicobaby350 He's certainly not casual. Casual would be playing a few hours then getting off so people only play like 3 hours or less. Asmon plays on stream gets off and keeps playing MMOs he's into. Yes being a streamer means he gets a fuckload of resources to skip most grinds and it's shameless but there's also plenty of times he would do large grinds and just show up on stream with shit complete that indicate he did nothing but that the past few days.
I must be doing something right in my life because I had no idea these two clowns existed til I stumbled onto this video. Maybe now I've taken a wrong turn.
Trust me you did the right thing...how this bs gets so many views is out of my sight...
Asmon doing a fitness journey would be the best content ever.
I'd start with a dental journey
Ikr he keeps saying stuff about how hes skinny and shit but doesn't realize with actual effort he can get whatever body he wants.
2022. The year asmon went full Bajheera
that would be awesome. i'd actually join him and start hitting the gym again
@@resentfusion5634 There are still limits to body structure.
The island Boys are what your character looks like 5 minutes after you find the tattoo parlor in gta 5
When people become a living meme because they are a borderline circus attraction it becomes very difficult to get credibility.
True but anime pfp is even harder to get credibility cringe weeb
I’ve never seen worse responses to questions before. These guys are a phenomenon
You should watch the Jesus Twins on the Howard Stern show, it's basically the same story 20 years earlier and a little more agro than the island boys
After a point, we get over the deformities and then start feeling sorry for the folks in the freak show. Then we feel guilty and look away. Sounds like someone's manager should've watched "The Elephant Man" more closely.
They should have probably hired a manager. Looks like they manage themselves.
my fav comment: "They look like poisonous plants" LMFAO
They didn’t have a career. They came, they saw, they go now.
5:24 one of the best Asmon laughs 😆
The bar for what counts as a “career” is so low nowadays it’s depressing…
Jonah hill was someone that seemed like he could be a one hit wonder but is actually incredible
He had talent though
They kiss each other now apparently.
Asmon shows his ignorance when it comes to MK ultra victims
Thats true
i never thought asmon would be the type of guy to listen to frank ocean lmao, makes me like him even more
Facts and the weeknd who is a large artist but it’s nice to hear someone appreciate the same musicians you listen to makes the world feel smaller
"Funny" as a career and "funny" as a meme are two different things. Like, at least the Hoff twins have day jobs and realness.
Man I just wish they were acting, doing a satire sketch fooling everyone and coming out with a banger album next year. and everybody going like, damn they were fooling us all that time.
The best rappers of all time listened to other rappers.
There is no such thing as a wholely original idea. Inspiration is key to new ideas.
"All publicity is good publicity." Yeah, tell that to Johnny Depp lol.
"Idk i thought they were funny!"
Exactly, they're being serious, not funny lol. We in the audience think it's funny though, because everyone knows they're bad lol
I think they hit a dead end with music you guys are right. But I think they have enough attention thst they could easily be successful celebrities in some way. Even if it was streaming their lives like asmon suggested, I can see a universe where people care for a while.
Back in the 90’s 2000’s, mtv would def have picked them up.
I think they can still make a comeback. They have good voice and I'd unironically listen to them. Yeah their official song is garbage, but it's mostly the production that makes it unlistenable, their performance is fine. They just need to get a (ghost)writer and a good producer and make a few songs that are actually good.
Man, that Keemstar part hits hard.
this might be the biggining of a new series where asmon reviews every single sunnyv2 video. this channel is aweasome for react content
Love your taste in music man haha. In addition to your streams. Asmongold just evolves lol. Keep on trucking man!
These are the guys who became 'famous' and then a trend started where people would insult you online by calling you an 'island boy.' Jealous is not something I would be of them lol.
If they leaned into the absurdity of their appeal that could keep the momentum, instead they are like noo take us super seriously
They definitely need to lean into it. Nobody will ever take them seriously while they are trying so hard to make people respect them.
I think your take on this is spot on. There's absolutely no reason to hate them. Maybe they don't deserve it but the good thing is that on talent, time always tells. Lots of love Asmon!
there is allot of reason to hate them.... you do understand that this kind of bullshit is extremely toxic to society and to the younger generation that grow up with the shit. saying there is no reason to hate them makes you extremely delusional about how the real world works and the actual impact this kind of fame has on society and on young minds.
I never realized their careers ever kicked off to begin with
asmon saying frank ocean is an OG solidifies him as my favorite streamer
Leonardo DiCaprio is a good example .... he was the titanic, romeo and julia , romance boy, every man laughed abt him..... Today , he is one of the GOATS actors. Every man wants to be like him.
Except nobody wants to be an incestuous twin doing only fans with your own brother...
if they want to do the music thing : They need to get a producer who can work with them on changing up their vocal styling and give them a decent beat as well as go over their lyrics and brutally go "hey this doesn't work, this does but you need to change up this"
@@Augrills thing is these are guys throwing a first pass draft on a track , they may actually have talent enough for a decent track or two(note: only Saying DECENT ) but will need a producer to polish that out
My man… Keem unfollows/blocks people and will literally be on their podcast or them on his the next day. I don’t even think it’s personal to him.
Asmon: "IDK, I legit thought these guys were funny!"
Everyone incl. the Island Boys: "Sir that's the issue, they weren't trying to be comedic. They were trying to be actual rap/media stars without the comedy."
Imagine you sell your soul for fame and then months later your career is already dying rofl.
I dont know if I would describe them as "authentic"
Well, they "fell off" even more now.
I think you meant "suck off"
You touched a massive point: if they suck, why don't people just ignore them? Let the ones who like them watch, if you don't, just scroll out of them
Im saying this as someone that never seen any content of them
Who would missed out on idiots who did some sht they are not good at?? This is youtube if you cant handle you're old,so keep your butthole out of it
Why ignore them when you can mock them for sucking, that’s how people are, that’s what you get into when you try to become famous
Your mocking gives them visibility, they thrive on this... Its because of this mentality that a lot of shit exists.
This makes you dumber than the island boys, for sure
To watch the shitshow.
The true mvp is those shorts staying up at 2:50 someone sign the shorts!
I’m a island boy 🏝
They had shock value, like that dude No-neck-Ed.
Ofcourse a career that's based on putting all eggs in one basket (shock value) will eventually die.
4:30 love Asmon’s self correction 😂 Honestly speaks the same for me too as Im pretty much the same physique as Asmon.
I agree there is no reason to hate on them.. They are just two goofy kids, that stumbled upon 15 minutes of fame. Doesnt matter if it was on purpose or not, they brought alot of smiles and laughs into the world.
Leave Britney alone tbh
True that
You are on crack man...
EPSTIEN AND GATES the real island boys
Epstein and Trump loved those forced island boys encounters
I had no clue there were all these "shows" that have the island boys on. It's like cable TV all over again. The only reason people are famous and you see them is bc they just all go on each other's show.
The longest running Simpsons prediction, Sideshow Bob is the Island Boys hahahaha.
They look like Cynthia from Rugrats.
@ 27:12 Accept for the fact that jewelry like that has no resale value and most of the time is made with fake and or shit tier diamonds custom pieces are not worth anything aftermarket diamond watches lose their value and warranty as well (speaking from experience working as a jeweler and in a jewelry store for 15 years. the only thing that holds value is gold and silver and that's based on weight like the brick or coin. The market value fluctuates almost daily but for the most part, they stand the test of time.
As to where diamonds are sold by a false scarcity and not rare (at least in the US various other places)
^ This. Its okay to buy jewelry because you like how it looks, but never think of it as any kind of investment.
10 min Video, and 20 min Tutorial
They have achieved a level of fame that’s admirable, I like to laugh at them and they seem to be having a good time. The jokes not on them, it’s on you…they are getting paid while you hate.
kanye musical genius ? when did he ever produce anything good ?
the island boys put exactly as much effort into their work as OF girls
Dumb af comment, effort doesn’t mean shit, you either have a service/product to offer or you don’t, OF girls make good porn and they’ll succeed, Island Boys keep making shit music and they’re gonna fail, it’s that simple
ill watch a fake paul fight when he fights someone that has some type of fighting background, not expectin her to fight tyson or anything, but at least someone with sometype of fight background. thats like him rap battling a country singer
I thought the funniest thing was when the Merkins had Michael Myers act as island Mike to make fun of these guys 🤣🤣
Their situation is ultra simple. Anybody can be viral sheerly based on novelty whether that source of novelty is disproportionately high skill, humour, unknown/unexpected experiences or scenarios etc. If you have some sustainable skill or interesting attribute, it's a fantastic jumpstart. If you don't have any of those factors, much like these kids, that brief fame will rapidly attenuate.
That's all there is to it. Not the first, not the last.
It's so odd when something is claimed to be "mega viral" and I'm sitting here wondering who tf these kids are
To be fair if my whacky social media career netted me hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars and then died at least now I got a bunch of money. Can't argue that.
Calling the island boys authentic is fucking wild to me lmaooo
George was genuinely excited to meet them, according to his own words. He just wanted to offer advice to help them in the long run. Careers and plans fail. You need to have a back up plan, if not multiple, if that bad day happens.
You can get swoll Asmongold, I had a guy in high school who was pencil thin Asian guy. He dedicated his next few years to body building and he’s absolutely huge. Insane transformation. But the guy did give it his all to attain that
1:20 - Two brain cells in a pool.
Kanye is definitely a great artist and is one of the best of the last 18 years. Is he a Musical Genius? I wouldn’t put him in that category. I think he’s pushed the traditions in hip hop farther than many other artists in his generation. The use of sampling in his music is just one aspect. Another is that his lyrics are also very clever and witty. That said, not a musical genius but definitely a legendary artist in his own right.
Never break character and eventually the world will go along. The funny thing is, RUclipsrs talk about these guys like they're hamsters on a wheel. Meanwhile, you're all part of the same churn.
You said it never does but the catch me outside one is an anomaly 😂
Cereal killers seem to prefer to be known over liked.
Saying Channing Tatum is an amazing actor hurts your credibility dude lol
The epstein island boys
“It is better to be known than liked” - Will Smith
I could see them acting if there was a live action troll doll movie.
love Asmon but thinking the island boys were actually entertaining might be his worst take ever lmao
There's a difference between something being entertaining and something being good. I think they are entertaining too. They are idiots who take themselves entirely too seriously and it's entertaining because they think they deserve respect and everybody refuses to give it to them 😂
@@lydellb yeah I see your point. Personally I find the situation entertaining rather than the actual moronic individuals 😂 They truly gotta learn to laugh at themselves a bit or idk release a song that doesn't make peoples eardrums bleed
but they are doing something bad, they're Digital Trash Content creators. and if you progress further on this analysis you'll eventually conclude they're hurting people or our society. It's the problem with the internet, it gave a voice to people that should never have, it gave them an opportunity to influence others. and a big chunk of "others" is the new generations.
Think about the magnitude of the negative impact that degenerates such as these have in our society.
Alborosie is highly underrated in modern reggae outside of Jamaica.Even though he is actually Italian,he is fully accepted by the reggae artist`s tight knit community in Kingston.
Snoop Dog said it right:
Two goofballs in a pool xD
Joey b toonz callin out the dust bunny twins hahaha love Joey
28:55 Yeah, i got a T-rex skull too in my living room.
Asmond needs to see The Kiffness remix if he did not already lol
Ive never seen Zakk's Iq drop so quickly
I remember Berleezy uses the forest background on the green screen and waves, "HEY LOGAN". Funniest crap I've ever seen
the keemstar part killed me ..lmao
Narrative of Self is the result of a feedback loop between “Separate Self” & Cosmos-🎈
Jake Paul is a better fighter now then he was in his previous fights and the way he's training and his dedicated to the fight business is impressive, A lot of MMA guys like that about Jake.He's working hard!
LOL I don't even like the guy but it is what it is.
A lot of big reggae artists lol. Popcaan, Jahvillani, Skillibeng, Masicka, Intence, Daddy1, Vybz Kartel… I could name 20 lol
14:00 wdym they don't hurt anyone??they hurt my ears with their song
Da Vinky > The Island Boys
wtf 100k... thats less than half my annual wage as a heavy diesel mechanic xD
The fact that people call kanye west a "Musical genius" just demonstrates how poor the quality of music has become in our culture.
Scope out Slightly Stoopid, on the reggae music bit
they tried their best guys on the podcast .... at least they didn't cry at that moment. Asmongold has a really good point which is they need just ONE really good song that get them famous. Just ONE good song.......
Asmon is my favorite human being for liking frank ocean
These two should remake Encino man
Omgggg Asmon likes The Weeknd. Mad respect haha.
Never heard of the Island boys till I heard Snoopdog and kevin Heart make fun of them on some podcast.
M DOT R IS A JAMACIAN UPCOMING ARTIST AND HAS THAT REGGEA SOUND. YOUR RIGHT ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE WE HAD THAT SOUND ITS COMING BACK THOUGH.
Those island boys got some Toucan bird beaks goin' on. 10:12
I've been trying to find out the source of the comment "if idiots could fly tik tok is the fucking airport..." I haven't, but whoever it was nailed it.
