People Are Blown Away by Viral TikTok Toddler’s Wild Vocal Performance
A viral 1-year-old's powerful, wordless message has been likened to the work of Frank Ocean, Bon Iver, and Tame Impala.
TikTok is known for hilarious videos of children, but this viral clip of a 1-year-old singing might take the cake.
A video posted by @harvvillaester shows the boy giving the performance of a lifetime as he sang his heart out to an acoustic guitar jam. The kid raged, sounding surprisingly good, screaming and crooning into a microphone running through an Auto-Tune-esque vocal filter.
The recording gained 11.1 million views so far on TikTok, while a Twitter repost by @girrlpuppy has yielded another 3.2M. The 1:44-long clip was highlighted by the Daily Dot and has circulated all over social media, with many saying what a great job the youngin did.
One TikTok user commented, "Alice In Chains vibe," and Villaester replied, "He was only 16 months old when I handed him the microphone."
One user joked, "Drake def going to sample," while another said "you can hear the pain in their voice." Other famous artists name-checks in the comments included "Tame Impala's ghost writer," "kinda reminds me of Bon Iver," and "Mitski does it every time."
