When someone wants to convey a transformation (a makeover, remodel, photography shoot, etc.), this particular audio featuring the words “and it went like…” created by a TikTok user plays over the footage. Tyga and Curtis Roach supplied the quarantine anthem “Bored In The House,” which plays when TikTok-ers are trying a funny new activity brought on by indoor monotny for the camera. When the teens are sneaking down the stairs to make margaritas while their parents sleep (or any video where people are hunched and tip-toeing), the song “Interior Crocodile Alligator” by Chip Tha Ripper plays. It’s a mixed bag!īut here’s the first thing I’ve learned about TikTok: These videos, whether they’re curated to my taste or not, have genres. While it often feels like TikTok is reading my mind (thanks for all the Keeping Up With the Kardashians overdubs, Little Women jokes and tiny apartment tours!), my “For-You” feed is still dotted with the occasional rogue clip-a cocktail recipe, a travel vid, “what I eat in a day diaries” (almost always toxic), a recipe involving truffle oil, something that can only be described as Harley Quinn cosplay. TikTok’s algorithm adjusts itself depending on what state you’re in and the posts you interact with the most, so, after a while, I saw less and less stranded co-eds and 16-year-olds dancing to “Savage” and more and more Bon Appetit fan content and musical theater memes (hi, recovering theatre kid here). But the landscape is also filled with so many teens, which makes me feel icky and way too old to be here-like a grown-up sitting alone in the theater at Trolls World Tour. Because of my age (TikTok still files me under “mopey post-grad,” I guess) and geographical location (near lots of universities), my feed is usually flooded with college students making “You meet X kind of person at this ” comedy videos or choreographing dances with their unwitting family members during quarantine (bless those moms). Hailing from Paris but he moved to Lille (Nord), Tez Cadey is trend in electro/deep house since 2011. Tez Cadey is a French music producer from Paris. But I’m a millennial, after all (or, at least, I consider myself one, despite being born on the cusp), and it’s no secret that TikTok is dominated by Zoomers. Tez Cadey beyond the stage of awareness in the community initiated with 'Seve', which entered the best-selling French charts in March 2015. Trying to fill the Vine-sized hole in my heart, I, like so many others in my age group, begrudgingly joined the platform when quarantine began as a way to kill some extra time and maybe get in a few extra hahas here and there.
