A lot of teen craze lately has been Troye Sivan, an openly gay singer/songwriter originally from South Africa now living in Australia. He became big when he and Tyler Oakley started doing collab videos. He was a YouTuber and was known for singing on his channel regularly and just being goofy. He started playing on the radio with his songs “Youth” and “Wild”. He has major aesthetic.
He influences the mood with his voice, singing about how it may be difficult to be away from home and that losing yourself is okay. You never have to be afraid of who you are or who you have become. Being you is the only requirement for your life. After that anything and everything else is yours to decide. His music is genuinely relatable.
According to Billboard Troye Sivan has had 4 songs in the Top 100. His most popular song “Youth” peaking at #23. He continues to make music and one of his newest songs “My, My, My” came in at #80. He originally came out with his first EP in 2007 with “Dare to Dream” which is Troye just singing some covers of songs that required Troye to put his voice to the test. After that he didn’t really make the public eye again until his days of YouTube with favorite Tyler Oakley. Tyler and Troye made videos together numerous times of them playing stupid games or doing the “Tags” that everyone was always and is always hyping about.
