Hello everybody, welcome to Saiman Says
and today in this video Im going to be reacting to 'congratulations'.
My DMs have been flooded with people asking me to react to 'Congratulations' because I'm this unofficial spokesperson of Pewds here in India.
So let's just get over with it.
Timothy, play congratulations.
Are you done?
Are you done with your lame jokes, Timothy?
Now can we continue with this video?
What did you guys do?
What is this joke?
Alright so in my first viewing of this song,
I liked this song but...
But in my second and third viewing I thought that some lines in this song a bit unnecessary.
Not offensive, unnecessary.
I liked how he dissed T-Series in this song,
I myself have opposed T-Series in most of my videos.
Mainly because of the memes
But I genuinely do not like the idea of a corporate owned YouTube channel at the top of Youtube.
I really liked this song until the
caste system and poverty lines.
See everybody knows that India has problems
but what was the point of bringing that up
in a song which is supposed to diss T-Series
T-Series is just a music label,
not the Government of India.
When he indirectl;y dissed India in Bitch Lasagna,
I found that funny, okay
Bitch Lasagna felt like a parody of a disstrack, it din't feel like a real disstrack.
Congratulations on the other hand,
it feels like Pewds was a bit... salty.
The lines in this song felt a bit serious,
they were not as light hearted as bitch lasagna
This sing felt like it was just trying
to attract controversy.
I heard this quote for the first time from Eric Bischoff,
WWE fans might know him.
And Pewds understands and implements
this quote to perfection
and im not saying this in a negative way
He is a very smart person
that is why he is the king of Youtube.
Pewds has been in a lot of controversies in the past few years
I've always supported him
because I understand that
people have understood him
but in this song it feels like Pewds is trying to forcefully create controversy by talking about India's caste system
These topic do not belong in a disstrack
towards a music label.
I would have actually excused it if it was funny...
But it's not.
But i guess he got what he wanted
Controversy creates cash!
He also brings up the MeToo allegation against Bhushan Kumar, the chairman of T-Series
but he fails to mention that those
MeToo allegations were false
the woman who filed those allegations, few days later she withdrew them
she said that she just did that
in frustration and depression
Im not supporting T-Series
but that is the fact.
I felt that he should have just graciously
congratulated T-Series of course in a sacrastic way
which actually was the first half of this song
that would have actually turned a lot of T-Series fans into Pewdiepie fans.
that would have been much better for
Pewdiepie himself!
because T-Series is not the problem over here,
of course, we love to antagonise them,
it is a good meme.
They are not the problem over here,
the problem over here is the Youtube system
because they allow corporate owned Youtube
channels to have a subscriber count.
I know that some of you will think that it is a bit ironic coming from me.
But i can confirm, that a lot of Indian Pewdiepie only support Pewdiepie to look cool in front of foreigners.
Im saying this as a fan of Pewdiepie,
it really looks bad on Pewdiepie himself
because he donated such a large amount to India's child labour
and that is a really amazing thing.
I respect him for that.
But now he disses India for being poor.
As I said, it was really unnecesary
A month ago Pewds also spoke abou the Pulwama terror attacks and it was a very sensitive topic in India
I understand that he was talking in terms of T-Series banning artists
but IMO he should have researched a bit more before talking about that
Then towards the end of this video he makes an emotional segment.
Okay so im saying this as a Pewdiepie fan myself
that was cringy.
lets be real guys...
that was definitely not his last bro-fist.
So in short, when he did it for the first time in BL, it felt light-hearted it felt funny
but this time around it felt a bit forced
Im not saying that Pewdiepie is a racist...
Im saying that Pewds is irresposibly trying to create forced controversial statements to get views
Pewdiepie has a large audience throughout the world, and a big part of this audience are impressionable young children
and if you're going to keep telling them subliminally that India is a bad country, it has a lot of problems...
they'll grow up to always look down upon India and they'll always think that india is a bad country with a lot of problems, no matter how much india develops.
I see that as a problem,
as an Indian.
*mic sponge falls off*
Also me and Pewdiepie have broken up...
Ever since he started giving attention to that
Blue Shirt kid.
That is why I dont wear these Pink shades anymore,
because that reminds me of my
relationship with Pewdiepie.
