It is crazy the fact that ray lost all his audience and revelancy and got a stuck in a shadow. But he escaped out of it and got it all back. Even YFM is back the same way.

[@irenaveksler1935]

He lost his audience on KZbin [until august 2021 of course] he was still a successful man, and on other social media’s he was doing well

Awesome video! I do not like RWJ. While he can be funny at times, and YFM is pretty cool, his copyright abuse is not something I am fond on. When he got into music (without YFM), he was made fun of, and would copyright strike youtubers for this. PewDiePie actually made a video on it. That was three years ago, but he's still doing it. When Joon The King made a documentary on RWJ's history as well as his current copyright abuse, Ray responded by doing that: Falsely copyright striking Joon! A youtuber named Pinely recently was making fun of RWJ, and he struggled to even release the video. Because Ray copyright striking it. There's a reason people prefer to remember Smosh, nigahiga, JennaMarbles, and PewDiePie over Ray when it comes to old day KZbin.
