Teaneck, NJ (PRWEB) May 23, 2013
The Official YouTube Channel for singing and dancing viral superstar Gummibär (username GummyBearIntl), has recently reached two major milestones, surpassing 1 billion total channel views and 300 thousand subscribers.
With these achievements, Gummibär
joins a rather exclusive club of about 73 other YouTube channels that
currently have 1 billion views or more. Amongst the ranks are music
superstars such as Eminem, Justin Beiber and Lady Gaga.
However, Gummibär is the only musical artist in the list that is not
signed, affiliated or distributed by a major music label, making him the
first indie music artist to reach 1 billion channel views. Gummibär's
YouTube channel is also ranked 3rd in views in the Film & Animation
category and the music video for his "Gummy Bear Song" ranks as the No.1
most watched video in this category as well.
The recent surge past the 300
thousand subscriber mark is not as illustrious of an achievement as 1
billion channel views, but still incredibly impressive. Subscribers are a
clear reflection of the popularity of the Gummibär brand and the
quality of the content on the YouTube channel. With the daily average of
new subscribers regularly topping 1,000, the official Gummibär YouTube
channel could double its subscribers in just another year.
Both major accomplishments come on the
heels of another recent milestone, in which "The Gummy Bear Song"
ranked at #23 on YouTube's All Time Viewed Videos chart. Once again,
Gummibär had broken ground in this area, being the only indie music
artist on the list of 25.
