What's up y'all, this is Addison Rae, and
I'm about to breakdown some TikTok lyrics
on Between the Lines.
Any time I hear a song now, I always
think, oh this could possibly be a good song
on TikTok.
The For You page has made it so easy for people
to see people, things, music, videos that
they've never seen before.
I feel like it's really important to me that
I do have that influence on other people and
their music taste.
There's so many small artists that make amazing
music, and they aren't really as known.
So, for me to be given the opportunity to
even boost their career in the slightest bit
is really awesome.
Hopefully I can do that for a lot more artists
that are trying to start out in the music industry.
I've probably done a total of four to five
videos to the Savage song, so I'm definitely
a Savage pro.
I think with Beyonce hopping on the song,
it obviously elevated it to a whole other level.
Everyone got super excited once again for
an already really huge dance on the app.
So, it was really smart and Beyonce's a legend.
So, these lyrics are obviously very heartfelt
to me because I am Addison Rae, and I think
it's really amazing that there is a song that
even mentions my name in it in the slightest bit.
My message to Kid Laroi is thank you, because
I don't know if I can say it enough but bringing
me into the world of music and into the industry
a little bit more has been so much fun and
so amazing, and I owe that all to you.
My mom and I had actually done a dance to
this song, and Mariah Carey ended up seeing
the video and liking it.
I thought it was so crazy.
My mom and I have always listened to Mariah
Carey.
Growing up, I was always listening to Mariah
Carey.
Her liking my video opened up a door for people
to see me and my videos more.
I mean, I've always talked about this video
and this song because it was my first viral video.
I'm sure one day we'll cross paths hopefully,
and I'll be like, "Thank you for this amazing
song because it changed my life."
So, this song based itself off of a TikTok.
In the video, she had a bearded dragon, which
is super cool because I had a bearded dragon
too.
Last year actually, I had a bearded dragon.
My bearded dragon's name was Sniper.
From Sniper Gang, from Kodak Black, is kinda
where I got that name from.
I love animals, so the fact that this song
is based off of a bearded dragon is pretty
wild I'd say.
It's really cool to see that just a regular
TikTok could turn into something like a really
viral song.
So, this song is a jokingly diss track that
was made by the Sway boys, and it was joking
with the Hype House.
I think it was just a fun little thing that
they decided to participate in.
There's no hard feelings, everyone in the
community of TikTok loves each other, and
we've all gotten past all the drama.
But, it's just for fun.
I think it's really interesting seeing people
that did start on social media expand their
careers into the music industry.
I do know Josh and Bryce definitely did this
as a joke.
I don't know if they'd be TikTokers turned
rappers, but maybe if they decided one day,
I'm sure they could make anything happen if
they put their minds to it.
This song means a big deal to me because I
was in the music video, which is super cool.
It was actually shot at the Hype House, in
the iconic bathroom, and there's two clips
of me dancing the TikTok dance into the music
video.
It was really cool that Lil Mosey decided
to reach out to us, and want to incorporate
us in it.
I thought it was definitely a really fun experience
that hopefully I get to do more of.
So many amazing songs weren't on the platform
because the platform wasn't as known back
then.
So, I think now these are amazing songs that
people have always loved, and now that they
can bring them to the app, and just make new
trends and different types of things out of
it is really fun.
I did a video to it, with David Dobrik, which
was really funny.
Quarantine times call for quarantine TikToks,
so we did it on my computer, and I lifted
it up, and he did the little adlibs.
I got the idea from a friend, and it started
a huge trend, which is really cool.
I did a video to this song with my family,
and I literally just moonwalked.
I listened to it, so I was like, "Right foot
up, left foot slide.”
Seeing an artist take advantage of what TikTok
has to offer is so smart.
Any song that gets an amazing dance done to
it and turns into a trend is always a plus
for the artist.
Growing up as a dancer, I feel like it's always
super important to have a song that does have
hits in it that I can incorporate moves into,
and the fact that this song has so many just
made it really catchy.
And shout out to the person that made this
dance because it definitely took off and became
a really big trend.
I never had heard this song before TikTok,
so it was cool to find one and put it on my
playlist now that I found off of TikTok.
Clearly TikTok has had so much influence
on the music industry at this point.
Not only does it really bring songs to the
top of the charts.
But, obviously artists are really enjoying
being on the app, and bringing their music
to the platform, and I think there's no better
way to do that than incorporate the app into their music.
I think my favorite...
I still want to say Addison Rae because you
know, it makes sense.
If I had to have someone namedrop me, I feel
like Trippie Redd or Lil Uzi would be really
cool, but also Drake.
I don't know.
Future would be a really cool one too.
I don't know, I love so many rap artists,
I can't even choose.
Even whenever someone makes a SoundCloud song, I'm like, "Oh my gosh."
I freak out because I think it's the coolest
thing ever.
I have only tried Faygo in the smallest amounts.
I've tried the root beer one and the red one,
but I don't know, I'm really not a fan of
soda-ish drinks.
I usually just try to stick with water and
teas.
That's sounds so crazy, but yeah.
I mean, it's definitely, it's good for little
sips in the day, but I don't know, I'm more
of a water fan.
