TeamAudra Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) I’m fascinated by TikTok, and the platform has been influential as a springboard for many in the music industry, including some Voice alums. Post whatever you want here, as long as it relates to TikTok and past or current Voice contestants. If a past contestant has a viral video, let us know here! I’ll start it off with a ranking of winners’ followings. Brynn Cartelli 348.8K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SU6HG/ Chevel Shepherd 215.1K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SYw4M/ Cassadee Pope 66.7K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SmcNe/ Javier Colon 62.1K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SxMT6/ Danielle Bradbery 22K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4Sj974/ Todd Tilghman 19.5K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SAdEY/ Cam Anthony 13.2K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SaEh1/ Carter Rubin 12.8K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SS2hy/ Alisan Porter 5020 https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SrX7y/ Sawyer Fredericks 1322 https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4ShB1S/ Maelyn 1307 https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SrxwL/ Jake Hoot 1214 https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4S6MbB/ Sundance Head 56 https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4ShRfr/ Tessanne Chin 46 https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4Sk5ys/ Jermaine Paul 29 https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMd4SjHwB/ Chloe MK N/A Chris Blue N/A Jordan Smith N/A Craig Wayne Boyd N/A Josh Kaufman N/A If anyone can find an account for any of the N/A, please post the link, and I will update the list. The numbers can change rapidly. I will update the list periodically. ———— Non-winners with larger followings (Minimum 100K) Melanie Martinez 2.3M https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNAf9L/ Morgan Wallen 2M https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNfs7p/ Makenzie Thomas 1.6M https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNk9vs/ Abby Cates 638.3K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNjwVV/ Presley Tennant 363K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNfthj/ Lauren Duski 342.2K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNrAkj/ Foushee 414.3K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNU3Q6/ Emily Ann Roberts 123.5K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVN9sdk/ Gihanna 109.2K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNPwGv/ Anna Grace 119.7K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNyKWx/ Andrew Jannakos 798K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdVNjUj6/ Avery Wilson 326K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdV9mqD2/ We McDonald 278K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdV9TNt9/ Vedo 103K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdV9wdVG/ Jon Mullins 149K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdqxFAqH/ Koryn Hawthorne 304K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdq4EvNq/ Ricky Manning 163K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdqbjs3S/ Bryana Salaz 251K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdqqv2KJ/ Raelynn 439K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdbesjKS/ Sarah Potenza 117K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdgPH3os/ Ashland Craft 121K https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdg5hTYq/ It’s not necessarily in order. That would be too much work, going forward. If you know of any with followings over 100K, post the link, and I’ll add it to the list. I’m not sure why the formatting is such a disaster on this site, but it is what it is. Edited September 4, 2021 by TeamAudra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t understand why someone in the music industry would not have a TikTok account right now. There are a few that don’t have a lot of followers yet, that are at least making an attempt.

That’s interesting, because she posts stuff on her Instagram story almost every day, and just yesterday, posted a bunch of pictures in a bikini. She also goes through stretches where she tweets a lot. So, I’m not sure I’m buying this as a reason to not have a TikTok account.

seak05 Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) Not a winner (sigh) but Lauren Duski has used Tiktok pretty well and has 342,200 followers. She also has a few videos with over a million views Edited July 11, 2021 by seak05 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie73 Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 It seems that the younger winners are the ones with more followers, and use the platforms more. Some of the older singers probably don’t use it as much (and some don’t even have an account) In terms of followers Avery Wilson has 326.1K followers, which makes sense because he is well known on social media We Ani has 278.5K followers Makenzie Thomas has 1.6M followers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She also has a few videos with over a million views Yes, and she’s used that following effectively too. Her strategy is to post a shit load of videos. Most videos don’t get a ton of views. All they need is one hit every now and then. Posting a lot is the key. I’ll bet some post a few videos and give up too quickly, when they don’t take off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaKD Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Andrew Jannakos has 798.9 k followers. He essentially got signed to a major label on the strength of his song going viral AND (unlike a bunch of other TikTokers) having that lead to amazing sales. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaKD Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) Melanie Martinez has 2.3 m followers, but her biggest TikTok success hasn’t come from her own videos. Someone randomly used her song Playdate in video that achieved meme status. It resurrected a 5 year old deluxe album cut, enough to get the album it was on to chart again.

TeamAudra Posted July 11, 2021 Author Share Posted July 11, 2021 I’ll prepare a list to add to the OP later of non-winners, but I’m going to have to have a cutoff of 100K followers. or something like that, or the list will be too long. It will be interesting to keep an eye on some of these. TikTok is still very new to most of these contestants. The two winners at the top of the list only had a few thousand followers at the beginning of the year. We could see a lot of growth from some unexpected contestants.

That’s a great point, because the number of followers doesn’t mean shit if they can’t figure out a way to monetize it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had zero original material prior to the show and got eliminated early. Now he´s doing very well for himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teraginn Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) Kameron Marlowe used Tiktok to promote his debut single Giving You Up before he was signed, and it got some traction there. He now has 68k followers and the sound for his single Giving You Up has 16k Tiktok streams. He's doing much better on Spotify, but I do hope he starts promoting more on Tiktok too. Besides that, I didn't really expect any of my snowflakes to be in Tiktok, so imagine my surprise when I saw Todd Tilghman posting covers there more often in the past couple of weeks. He has doubled his Tiktok following since, so hopefully he'll keep making more videos. Edited July 12, 2021 by Teraginn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamAudra Posted July 12, 2021 Author Share Posted July 12, 2021 The way I see it, TikTok is a great way to reach people who have never heard of you. They also probably don’t care that you were on The Voice. So, once you get a follower, you need to continue to keep their interest, or they will quit viewing your videos, even though they still technically follow you. In that regard, the quality of every post matters. Don’t follow up a popular post with some shit that nobody wants to watch, or that new follower might decide not to watch the next one. I think this is true of other platforms, as well, but especially on TikTok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
