My Dimash Videos Got BLOCKED

I love reacting and commentating to Dimash Qudaibegren. My latest Dimash video got completely blocked after a string of videos got partially blocked. KZbin and record companies need to figure out they are hurting artists through this system. Hopefully doing reactions to Dimash isn't something I need to stop doing in the future.

*I love Dimash, this has nothing to do with him.* It is between KZbin and the record companies. Hope this gets solved so I can keep reacting to Dimash! Part of the fun of the community of Dears is the ability to discuss, react and interact together around DImash's latest songs. We don't want that taken away! In the meantime ► *Check out my latest Dimash Cover - Across Endless Dimensions Here:* kzbin.info/www/bejne/qX3IkJ2GrKxrrKs ►

Hi Caleb, they are trying to work things out. I think this is a transition period where certain things get hashed out and matters (and lines) get clarified. Hang in there. I'm rooting for you and your blocked vids 😉

[@elizabethseminario7203]

Hi Caleb write to Dimash channel and his new channel news about that because that can really hurt making dimash more well known

[@FluffysMum]

Heres what's happened Caleb. Dimash has plans to go to tbe US, he has employed people to take care of his social media, in KZbin case that's Yoola. Now Yoola have been blocking everything and Kanat has been trying to sort this mess out but it's taking forever. I would suggest writing directly to Dimash's news channel who have been receptive to emails if you word it so they understand its urgent, here is their email address [e-mail] He has a press channel on KZbin too the link is on his channel. He also has a Dimash News.Com websiste . I am going to send your video to them I hope this all gets sorted very soon as like you say its hurting him too. Good Luck Caleb 👍💓

I love your Dimash reactions very much.😭🙏✌️✌️✌️

[@suzannamoran1066]

I did a big survey in one of the largest fan clubs, with many hundreds of respondents, about how people found Dimash. As I found him through a reactor, I was very surprised to find that only about 15-20% of the respondents did. More than 60% found him through the YT sidebar recommendation algorithm, almost everyone else through a personal recommendation. YT's algorithm requires people to be interacting with Dimash's own videos. So if they are doing a careful analysis of what is driving people to him, pushing Dimash's Dears away from reactors (which many of them spend a LOT of time on) and more toward more views on his own channel makes sense, as that increases his algorithm visibility. And that is one of the things that Yoola promises to do. Taking over reactors' monetization rather than blocking doesn't change those viewing traffic patterns. However, I doubt that their analysis is that careful. And of course the YT automated Content ID system isn't capable of telling a leech reactor apart from a reactor/commentator like Caleb and several others who add value. It's a problem, but with 300 hours of video uploaded to YT every minute, there's no other way than to automate. I haven't had time to do a detailed email to the copyright address at DimashNews but I do intend to (I'm a law professor currently focusing on copyright/royalty issues).

[@Snarky_Tart]

This long reply isn't directed at you personally, but in the hope to offer some perspectives you might find helpful when you write to the copyright address at Dimash News. I'm unlikely to do that myself, so if you find anything here that you can use, please do, with my gratitude. Dimash's largest fan clubs outside of China have something like 35K-40K members. His official youtube channel has 1.2 Million subscribers. Doesn't that mean that over 95% of Dimash's youtube fanbase doesn't belong to facebook fanclubs? There are a lot of us who don't join fan clubs for various reasons, but we've spent years promoting Dimash and his music through youtube reactors. It's arguably the most successful viral marketing campaign Dimash has enjoyed, and it's free. Most of the Dimash reaction videos are de-monitized by copyright claims (not strikes or blocks), so whoever claims the video receives 100% of the monies generated by inserting advertising in the videos. I "assume" a substantial portion of that has gone to Dimash. The reactors make $0 doing most of their Dimash reactions. It does help build their channel (if they do a good job at reacting), but the majority of the better reactors make Dimash a regular feature on their channels because they genuinely love his talent and enjoy his youtube fans. I remember before the Barclay Center concert, the youtube reactors were heavily advertising the event and providing links to purchase tickets. I remember when we were trying to get Dimash to a million youtube subscribers, starting from about 650,000. All the better youtube reactors were promoting his channel during their reactions, asking their viewers to please subscribe to Dimash's official channel and help him get to 1 Million. Some of them even included instructional videos of how to subscribe to Dimash, because not all youtube viewers normally subscribe to channels. There have been interviews with Khizri, Igor Krutoy, Flavien (co-composer of "Love is Not Over Yet") and Piergiuseppe Zaia (composer and director of "Creators: The Past") talking about how they discovered Dimash on youtube, watching videos that are not on Dimash's official channel. Lara Fabian and Brian May both saw Dimash from youtube links sent to them from The Singer 2017 show---performances that are not on Dimash's official channel. Dimash's youtube reactors include recording artists, opera stars of the world stage, a few actors from popular American TV shows, and some very well-known and sought-after vocal coaches (for example, Ken Tamplin who has studied with Pavarotti's vocal coach, and whose own student has appeared on-stage with Andrea Bocelli). The goodwill and visibility built by Dimash's youtube reactors is immeasurable. These actions by yoola are potentially destroying what has taken years to build. Not to mention there are hundreds of thousands of Dimash fans who regularly watch youtube reactions, and who would otherwise not sit on Dimash's official channel just watching the same videos over and over every day for years. It's the youtube reactors who are providing fresh perspective and content about S.O.S. from "Singer" that means we (youtube fans) probably see S.O.S. at least five times/day. I hope you don't mind this long rant. I, and uncountable thousands of others, are very upset about this short-sighted and destructive development.

[@davidcullen6797]

@@Snarky_Tart Excellent perspective. I found Dimash in the sidebar (in a reaction video) while watching Dolly Parton and the heavy metal band, Disturbed (don't ask). "SOS. A distressed alien. A reaction. In French. Gotta be crap." I was happy to be wrong. Dimash might be selling beshbarmak from a roadside stand were it not for KZbin reactors! Whoever Dimash has aligned himself with for business purposes is not doing him any good with this heavy-handed approach.

[@arcelyparedess]

I also found him on UTube

[@Snarky_Tart]

@@davidcullen6797 David Draiman's vocal on Disturbed's "Sound of Silence" is something even most Dimash fans can appreciate. :-) Most of youtube's sidebar recommendations for Dimash are reaction videos. That's another thing we'll lose if Yoola is successful in their purge. The videos from Dimash's official channel won't appear in the sidebar very often, since most fans will watch the official video a few times. The reaction videos bring us new content of Dimash songs every day, so Dimash basically lives in the youtube recommendations 24X7 365.

[@florencethomas7761]

@@Snarky_Tart It's not a rant, it's an opinion and to be respected. I am amazed at what @Suzanna Moran explained, wow! I would not have imagined this (how could I of course, I am just a user of YT!). This is so interesting. Yoola is doing their job, to my "amateur"'s perspective, they are outdated, getting Dears annoyed at best, enraged on the worse days. I agree that they do what they are paid for, but as professional, they can also advise their clients.

I’m very sad to hear this Caleb. You are by far my favourite reactor, your videos are always positive and informative and I always enjoy them immensely. This is turning into a real issue as all the fan tributes are also prohibited from using more than 20secs of any of his songs. You can imagine how stupid it’s getting with fan tributes now being backed by music other than his. I hope that there can be a more favourable outcome than what has occurred already with fans having hours if not months of work deleted. Please continue fighting for your rights Caleb. All the best.

[@williamkwan6913]

A lot of Dimash reactors simply play the whole video straight through. Some of them have reactions that are fun. Yours definitely have more content. Maybe you can ask Dimash's management people to put you on a special list. I agree with you though. KZbin has put Dimash on the map in the West. I hope they don't kill what is free publicity. They could be spending millions on what they're getting for free. It's sad though, to see so few views and subscribers on Dimash's own channel. Some KZbin influencers' have videos that regularly log millions more views than Dimash does. Good luck. I really do appreciate the videos you create.

Sorry to hear that! You are right, Caleb. It was not right at all to block your video! Everyone should share this video and even send it to Dimash and/or his father directly. The whole thing is fishy by the way. The company called Yoola or what directs Dimash' youtube channel right? (If I know well.) They do it by themselves or by Dimash team's direct requests. They does their work bad obviously. Interesting Tara Simon also did reactions on Dimash' songs in the same way you did. Still her videos were not banned/blocked. So what! A little part of one of her reactions was shown in Dimash' documentary Rising. So I do not believe if Kanat or Dimash would have any problem with youtubers reacting on his songs etc Rather there must be something with that company and - as usual - with youtube...

[@remakeit2628]

Caleb, your explanation of the issues is spot on, and I am glad you have disputed the "block" on YOUR content. Many like me visit vocal coach "reactors" like you (in preference to lay reactors) to learn more about what singers like Dimash can do, AND how they do it. In fact, for 60 years I listened to "pleasant" music - it sounded good, and I never cared about "musicality" because it was seldom special. Then along came Dimash, and if it was not for people like you on KZbin I might have thought there was something strange about me because I got a kind of "man crush" on him due to how his voice runs through my body (not just my ears)! YOU explained how this can happen. You are right in that if we just want to listen to Dimash we can just go to his site - HIS content - and listen only to what he sings. I could do that on Spotify, and that's a completely different experience to actually "learning" something by watching YOU on KZbin analyse and describe what is going on. Is there any way that supporters of YOUR channel - me at least - can assist you with your case to KZbin by emphasising the differences outlined above?

[@theneedyofgodsmercy3621]

so dears.. please tell dimash's management to ask "id right claim" than asking "blocking" .. bcoz dimash will take the money with "id right claim", it's 100% better than blocking= he wont get anything, and his music and its reaction will not go wider.. it's a pity to both dimash, his music, his dears, his potential new fans..

Caleb the problem is very simple. You demystified the Dimash algorithm. We all recognized that he's talented and unique but at the same time you found a way to reach that level of proficiency. You discovered the ACADEMICS of his style. Obviously it takes almost 20 years or even more for such voice training but such proficiency is attainable through hard work. Dimash should not be seen as an icon. He's a talented musician and artist who went throughout rigorous training. You found a way to explain him. It's very down to earth and attainable WITH HARD WORK, the proper technique and full comprehension of the anatomy on those small muscles. KZbin MUST not prohibit analysis. Instead of people perceiving Dimash as an Icon of fascination, why not understand the science and explanation behind his craft. Adding knowledge should be an endeavor not a grievance.

[@GabrielAndryus]

Hope this gets resolved. KZbin are crazy, there are tons of reactions and yours are my favourite. Look after yourself and hope to heard more great things from you. x x x

You are a musician and a good voice teacher. I love the way you react to Dimash's music. I learned to appreciate his voice by your comments. I hope your problem can be fixed as soon as possible by youtube or whoever is responsible for this. I am with you Caleb. Keep fighting.

@@CalebColesMusic I have seen many reactions to Golden already. Some initially got blocked but later got unblocked. Also Dimash's team promised to revise the copyright rules established by the company that has started running his YT channel lately. So please, don't give up! Try to fight this.

Hey, Caleb I'm missing you and waiting of your new reactions. If you have a problem with copyright, it helps to blur the imagine of the video. Please make a reaction of Diana Ankudinova's cover of "can't help falling in love" and don't forget to do something with the imagine, because NTV is also very strict now with all reactions of Diana.

I just discovered you , and i like your content, i want u to start reacting to this band it will blow your mind ( within temptation) the main leader on this band sharon has a unique vocal and her opera voice on her songs are magnificent , try these song ( memories, supernova, endless war) as a start , i know you like opera note in between the song , our taste is similar, enjoy and tell what you think ❤️

[@pamologyfriday]

Hi Caleb, its something his new management company Yoola. They are really being restrictive to all the reactors now. Its a real issue & I dont think his team DimashAli, his father Kanat are quite aware how restrictive its become. We, who are his fan group, are really, questioning Yoola & his fan tributes are also being restricted. I do recommend contacting Yoola as well & his personal management DimashAli

[@CalebColesMusic]

Yes I hope that gets changed! Thanks for letting me know that makes a lot of sense.

[@nasa2008hubble]

It's a shame, in my opinion based on what I've seen, all the fault is on KZbin. This platform constantly violates the rights of content creators who don't think like them. I have seen many strikes for no reason and they only threaten to destroy the channel that has cost you so much effort. KZbin is a media dictatorship. You are doing well. FT

[@TeacherPaulReacts]

This was a great and insightful rant, it builds up confidence to dispute what is rightfully ours, thanks for that!

[@TeacherPaulReacts]

@Cute Arctic Fox me? Well, I have a few songs myself that I have sent to some reactors asking them to please react to it to help promote it. So, YEAH, I have put myself in an artist's shoes and I completely support reactors and what they do for the artist. Don't you think I have copyright ID? I do, I see people using my content. Have I ever blocked them? Nope, never. Anyone who wants to react to me, is welcome to

[@TeacherPaulReacts]

@Cute Arctic Fox well, did you watch this reactors video? He and I don't do it for the money, in fact, most of our videos pay copyright to the artists. This isn't a dimash problem, this is a copyright issue. This is for all artists. The only complaint we reactors have... the only one, is that our videos get blocked and never to be seen. That's the only problem. I would love to work for free doing Dimash videos, get him paid. I have no problem with that. The fact is, blocking someone's reaction is just unnecessary and unproductive. What is the point of blocking a fan's reaction? Or a vocal coach's reaction? The vocal coach took his time, worked for free, promoted the video and he is still willing to pay copyright. Yet he gets blocked? Is that fair to you? We show appreciation and get blocked. Sometimes even threatening closing the channel with a strike. That is completely horrifying. We work for free, we generate income and we promote the artist, and we deserve to get deleted? No, I won't agree to that. Reactors are a pillar and a powerful ally, on top of everything we provide honest feedback. We put our faces out there and speak truthfully. So I'm sorry, I don't agree with being shut down due to copyright since law protects us under fair use.

[@TeacherPaulReacts]

@Cute Arctic Fox oh wow... you know what, let's not talk. I never asked for any donations, I just thanked her for being generous and it was an emotional moment for me. That's really upsetting to read and I don't want my day to be ruined. Have a great day, you seem like a good person, and I'm sorry if I was rude at any point, but I would just rather focus on positive thoughts. Stay safe

Greetings from London

[@Darling_Nicci]

It's not really a record company, it's the company, Yoola, that was hired by Dimash's team to take care of his content and along with that the usage of his music. This whole thing just makes me furious 🤬 Dimash's team knows that a huge part of his success in the West is due to YT and reactions (80-90% imo). They/Kanat has said so and even featured some of the big reactors in at least two Dimash documentaries. Yoola is now plowing through YT like a bull in a china shop. They even had super short fan videos taken down because they used some of his music. And despite of that the email from DI's team that someone posted here says fans won't be affected, this particular fan was never allowed to put her video back up, never heard back from Yoola. It's absurd. If they continue to block videos instead of just claiming them it's going to hurt his career big time.

[@vivienmc5983]

I agree it’s ridiculous. I wonder if Dimash or his father are actually aware of this problem? If only we could get this message across to them. Via the Dears fan clubs maybe?

[@roisincherie]

@@vivienmc5983 they are aware

[@Darling_Nicci]

@Vivien MC They are. Yoola is a company that was hired to do a job and details of that job were discussed before they actually started doing it - they don't (and can't) just do whatever they want. At least they have a marching order from their client (=Team DQ = Kanat). I think there were some small/fan accounts that were collateral damage in the beginning when Yoola started out. But everything that's happening now is signed off and wanted by DQ imo. Dears/fan clubs have been very vocal about this since Yoola took over (hence the email/response from team dq that was posted somewhere on here).

@***t ***s In my opinion, it is not the various reactionaries that should be blocked, but some Russian bloggers. They have become insolent, very unscrupulous and impudent.
