TikTok: Viral Sensation taking over the VI and all over the world

TikTok began in September of 2016, but recently since we've been experiencing a worldwide crisis it has become the perfect distraction we need during these trying times. It has now become the most popular up to date app. While some are trapped in their home because of this pandemic, this is the perfect distraction to keep their minds of everything that is going on around us. Our "public figures" wasted no time taking advantage of their free time and hoping on the app to relieve some much needed stress. While tiktok may have some similarities with other social media apps, there are differences as well. Subscribers to the app can create a 15 sec video with any clip from a track they desire. While we haven't experienced the app for ourselves, we're pretty much caught up from the many stories of our Facebook, snap chat and Instagram followers. One of our local artists "Bugz Bugs," received recognition with one of his latest singles "Wah now ft. Pep Dawg & Prya. One of his many followers began the "Wah now Challenge," and challenged others to join in on the fun. Other public figures such as "Reggae Artist" Tia Mason joined in on the fun along with her siblings for much needed entertainment. While the rest of the world is at home to prevent further spread of the virus, they join in on the fun with family and friends. Many look at this as a distraction, but if that's what we need to keep us distracted until this is over. Say a little prayer for you and your love ones and take a break and join in on the fun.
