Reject False Icons 4,763 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 You might call me delusional but most music videos on YouTube were uploaded in 2009 (well obviously the ones that came before that date) and I believe it was because Gaga came up with a huge priority on social media and tech and that focused on the new generations who used it. And of course she smashed with her videos Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illuminati 15,917 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Music videos used to be uploaded by unofficial and singer youtube accounts (or labels) until ~2009 when Vevo partnership began. Gaga really only pioneered Beats product placement in videos at the time lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PEZ 6,227 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 6 minutes ago, Reject False Icons said: but most music videos on YouTube were uploaded in 2009 Be mindful that Vevo was founded in 2009 as a joint venture between UMG, SME, and EMI -- it's more attributable to those three huge record companies' efforts, not Gaga. ⚡🐲 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BibleThisWay 4,370 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Music videos were viral on YouTube years before Gaga, e.g. Girlfriend by Avril . Gaga videos from 2008 were uploaded in 2009 to YouTube (along with most artists' videographies pre-2009) because of Vevo. Sure she was the biggest thing on YouTube around the time of Vevo launching but music videos were a thing on YouTube before Gaga and would have been a thing anyways around that time had she not existed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
