The “Most Trending Video” of the year comes again from Rezo, whose «Destruction Part 1: Incompetence» has more than 6 million views.
The Youtuber Rezo landed in first place twice in the 2021 leaderboards of the Google video service.
On the one hand, his video “Destruction Part 1: Incompetence” was named “Most Trending Video”. The 28-minute long video, in which Rezo had pre-buttoned allegations and mistakes by politicians a few weeks before the federal election, has now received over six million views. The man with the striking blue head of hair was also named “Creator of the Year” by YouTube.
In this category, Rezo landed in front of the Youtuber «Hungry Hugo», who mainly entertains his audience with funny memes. Youtube voted “Lehrerschmidt” in third place. The school principal in Lower Saxony has around 1.2 million subscribers with entertaining but also instructive math videos.
«Top Music Videos»
This year there was movement in the “Top Music Videos” category, because German rap has not dominated in 2021 for a long time. At the top is “The Weeknd” with the song “Save Your Tears”. “Kasimir1441” and “badmómzjay” follow in second place with the video “Ohne Dich”.
“Breakout Creator”
In the “Breakout Creator” category, the Youtuber Marvin Wildhage took first place: The 25-year-old journalist and presenter deals with the sometimes questionable mechanisms of the influencer industry in his videos. But he is also known for rough jokes. “UiiiMemo” landed in second place, a friend of the well-known streamer “MontanaBlack”, who has only been running its own channel this year. In third place was “DoktorWeigl” who, as a doctor and pain researcher, wants to provide his viewers with medically understandable and correct information.
