A few days ago, Rich Brian showed his love on Twitter again, compared to the fatal blow he announced about his relationship last month, and now this round of sweet missiles can only make me learn to be strong while eating dog food.

I'm okay, I see a lot of #Rich Brian's girlfriends who have cried to death online:
"My boyfriend is in love, cool boy becomes sweet boy, lost love and cries"
"The fierce woman shed tears..."
"I cried loudly"
"Husband happy I am happy"

Netizens' heartbreak messages
Ever since Rich Brian has gone from YouTube Red to the United States to the world through his rap, so many people have fallen in love with him, and even I, after writing this post, have an urge to marry him (I am emotionally stable [smiling]).
Many people notice Rich Brian, initially because of his nonsense memes. In the beginning, he used his real name to sign up for Youtube video bloggers.
He puts himself in the category of "funny", spending every day at home in Jakarta, Indonesia, shooting some exaggerated and funny videos, and his photos are also very grounded, no filters, all a spoof expression.

Don't look at Rich Brian's ease on the Internet, but when he was a child, he gave up going to school because of social difficulties, and his fluent and authentic English was completely self-taught on Youtube.
"When I was thirteen or fourteen, the internet was actually my life. It's like at some point in my life, I have more friends on the Internet than I do in real life. ”
The turning point came in 2016, when Rich Brian released a self-made MV of Hip-Hop music, Dat $tick, on Youtube.
The shape is witty and funny, and the dance is stiff and a bit silly. He sees the MV as an attempt to break his video style. As a result, he became the chosen son, and this MV made him completely on fire.
"I've never seen a rap more powerful than this, and people can't be disguised." God-level rapper Tory Lanes commented.

Rich Brian was 17 years old at the time, and his rapid rise to fame made him realize what he really wanted, like a new type of "American Dream." It didn't take long for him to move to Los Angeles, where he began composing music.
The debut album Amen hit the iTunes charts, becoming the first Ever Asian artist to top the iTunes Hip Hop/Rap Chart. He was also selected by Rolling Stone Magazine, an American music trendsetter, on the "25 under 25" list (25 young forces that change the world).

For the current Rich Brian, he has completed the process of transforming from internet celebrity Rapper to a powerful faction. Although he has a heart, Da Shui Hua still wants to re-enli him in an atmospheric way, take you into him, and get to know him.

Rich Brian's fan code: Thunderbolt pocket, never flash waist
To date, Dat $tick has been viewed 150 million times on YouTube.
In addition, in this homemade MV, Rich Brian walks the streets of Indonesia, singing gangster rap, but wearing a pink polo shirt and a small belt bag, which also impresses everyone. Especially the fanny packs.
Fragment of Dat $tick
"This MV was set the day before, and I thought about it and thought that my costume wasn't funny enough, so I went to the mall with my parents at night to buy this outfit." But no one expected that after the MV was issued, a "thunderbolt wind" was blown.
In the United States, it is called "fanny pack" or "bum bag", that is, "butt bag"; in the United Kingdom, it is called "roadman bag", which is exclusive to street assholes.
It is said that the person who invented the belt bag was inspired by the kangaroo, but the belt bag with countless zipper sandwiches has basically no shape to speak of, and is more practical.
With the advent of the new era, this piece with a deep mark of the times has become outdated and outdated, and people are hiding from their pockets like monsters. Whoever it is, as long as it is related to it, it will be mercilessly ridiculed by the public.
The ridicule and unpopularity of the belt bag in the movie "Deadpool 2"
Under the influence of Rich Brain, even the big star Dwayne Johnson posted a photo of himself in the 90s on a "nostalgic Thursday", wearing a Jobs-style turtleneck and dad jeans, and a small belt bag wrapped around his strong waist - netizens said they sprayed.

But in addition to the group ridicule and imitation, people seem to have begun to re-examine this past item. Many fashionable people have begun to carry their belt bags out of the street, and even the belt bags have appeared on the high fashion show.

The big brands you know and want to get have launched a lot of celebrity pockets in the past two years, and they have completely ignited its fashion revival.

On the other hand, the sports trend has made "street" and "hip hop" become the current popularity, and the "emotional item" of the belt bag has naturally won the pick of the fashion brand again.

I am yellow skinned and I am proud
Cover of the single "Yellow"
To be precise, Rich Brian is because of the release of the "Yellow" single, which has subverted the public's understanding of him.
First of all, "Yellow" is different from the previous "Dat $tick", replacing the previous magic Trap, Rich Brian uses Auto-Tune to sing the melodic part, enhancing the musicality of the whole song.
A large number of acoustic instruments are added to the accompaniment, and singing and speaking are carried out simultaneously. The beginning chrys and the closing credits can make you feel the ups and downs of the mood of the song clearly.
Especially after watching the MV, the understanding of this song is more profound, Yellow, is the yellow race represented by Rich Brian.
The MV is interpreted in a montage, wrapped in a transparent plastic film, implying that he is wrapped up in the stereotype of "Internet celebrity" and the racial prejudice of "yellow people".
Wrapped in plastic film, Rich Brian was put into a different state
Breaking the shackles, Rich Brian is reborn. Looking back at the scene when he first arrived in the United States, everything around him gathered and scattered in his pupils. It was his hardest goodbye, but it wasn't easy.
Burning the house to ashes represents a rebirth of blood
"I'm yellow, but I'm not embarrassed by it," the young man who had just arrived in the United States wrote his thoughts into the lyrics.
Don't fight the feeling cause I'm yellow
Don't resist my feelings because I'm yellow
Will I make it, who the hell knows
Will I succeed, who knows
You want my soul, but we don't sell those
You want my soul, but we don't sell my soul

Cooking enthusiasts
When alone, Rich Brian also derives a variety of interesting lifestyles for himself. Before his fame, he was good at cooking, and he liked to shoot the food making process at home, or do various funny tutorials:

Cooking bread in the microwave, teaching you how to spit out smoke rings, and waiting for food, awkwardly facing the camera, or being choked, are all recorded by him; now Rich Brian is still doing all kinds of funny "experiments", such as: showing everyone how to make a perfect omelet:
Ingredients: Bacon, cheese, sea salt, a small piece of butter, some chives, some truffles (not sure if to add them) and eggs.
step 1 / Beat 3 eggs into a bowl and stir. Remember to add some salt and pepper.
A small mistake in the eggshell into the bowl
step 2 / Turn on the stove, put a little butter, cut the bacon into small pieces, put it in the pot and cover the pot.
step 3 / Pour in the stirred egg mixture, blend well, and sprinkle with the chopped cheese.
step 4/ Carefully flip the egg skin, which is the most fun and exciting part of it.
That’s where this is fun！
step 5/ When the cheese is melted, fold the egg skin in half, add truffles and green onions in turn to decorate and finish.
"Every time I cooked, it was an attempt, and I was the most relaxed at that time."

Sailor's home and dreams
Cover of the album Sailor
"The Sailor symbolizes being an explorer." Rich Brian says, "People in life want to explore uncharted territory out of curiosity. This is my own story, and the story of all immigrants who bravely embraced the new world with hope for a better future. ”

Eager to explore the world, the young boy of 17 left home for Los Angeles.
Living in Los Angeles in less than two years covers the relaxing time Rich Brian spent in Jakarta. Los Angeles is a more diverse and chaotic place, and it is also the center of the musician collection.
Now he returns to Indonesia every 6 months, rests there for more than a month, spends time with his parents, and meets his old friends. Suddenly, he felt that he had never left.
Because of his work, he now spends very little time with his parents. He also hopes to find a balance between life and work, and find a place to calm himself between home and dreams.
What is the meaning of life?
What is the point of life?
What is a life if a moment can end in a blink of an eye?
What if life were fleeting?
Life and the meaning of life may need to be explored slowly by an "explorer", but for him now, the direction of his dream is home.

☕️ Garbage sorting is a science
I remember that in August 2019, Shanghai took the lead in implementing "garbage classification", and throughout the summer, the topic of "garbage classification" was as hot as the local temperature. At the entrance of the supermarket in Shanghai, the clean and hygienic old aunt asked Rich Brian with a serious face: "Is this dry garbage or wet garbage?" ”
This time, the "explorers" came to the oriental metropolis of Shanghai, and in addition to feeling the street sycamores of old Shanghai, they also participated in the experience of this "garbage sorting" action. 《YOHO! Trend Chronicle also specially shot a creative short film full of "Shanghai color" for Rich Brian.
Walk through the alleys of Shanghai, buy breakfast, and casually walk into an old Haipai barber shop, which is full of retro and stories.
The massage of the old barber made him feel as if he had entered a wonderful place, where the hair dryer turned into a weapon. Although the music matured, his funny humor did not diminish in the slightest, and his brain was still in the air.
Rich Brian's intracranial journey
"When I was in Indonesia, I used to go to some old barber shops to cut my hair, where there was usually only one barber, and sometimes he would give you a head massage for free."
At the end of the film, Rich Brian throws his uneaten breakfast in the trash, and the aunt in front of him still asks him: "What kind of garbage is this?" Perhaps, for our explorers, the adventure to Shanghai that he remembers most should be "garbage sorting".

Until now, netizens have vividly remembered Rich Brian's emotional experience along the way:
First, in 2018, he fell in love with a girl he had never met, but only two months later, the online relationship was dumped by Rich Brian as the end. To this end, he also specially created a "song of lost love" to express his pain.

The dog food was enough, and the lemon essence was defeated. Although the online love boy Rich Brian announced that the love was heartbreaking to everyone, he was glad that Rich Brian finally got rid of the curse of online dating and harvested his own happiness.

Will go to the top step by step. ”
