BUSTED: DJ Xclusive bought YouTube views for his ‘Pangolo’ video

DJ
Xclusive who's a hardworking disc jockey is now
branching out into being a frontline artiste
releasing new singles of his own.
But the resident Cool FM disc jockey and his team
may have gotten it all wrong this time around –
hardwork they say always pays and really there
should be no shortcuts to success.
DJ Xclusive's new video 'Pangolo' (which
features vocal performance form Timaya) dropped
on December 11, 2013 and surprisingly gathered
(as at the time of this report) over 6000 views!
Let's just say it is IMPOSSIBLE and we'll tell you
why…
Reason 1 – Anybody who knows their YouTube
well will tell you videos which are recently
published receive a 301+ view count because
according to Ted Hamilton, product manager at
YouTube, view counts are initially tracked by
servers near the end user.
Reason 2 – Isn't it strange that with a 'suspect'
6195 views, the video has not one 'like' or
'dislike'? STRANGE!
Reason 3 – There are 174 comments. Apartment
from the YouTube uploader's (DJ Xclusive)
comment, all other 173 comments are made by
non-Nigerians. With usernames like Jack Woods,
Maybelle Beckerman, Darlene Morales, Julius
Kiesling making random comments like 'he is
gonna conquer everything', 'he is gonna conquer
everything', 'he has shown his difference with
others', 'he has good knowledge about it' and 'it's a
nice collection to me', it's not hard to figure they
are all fake accounts.
Reason 4 – There are no statistics to support the
6000+ views.
Here's what we think happened: Those who
uploaded Xclusive's video apparently bought
YouTube views. Yes, it's that simple, just log
onto authentichits.com and buy 2,150 Youtube
Views for as low as $4.
But we met with Xclusive who tries to explain how
the video garnered so many views. 'We had it up
but as unlisted and shared it with people so when
we made it public, it already had the views'.
