Niekryty Krytyk and Europe’s YouTube Heavyweights (Weekly Video Blog)

It’s Monday and our weekly video blog is up and about today. Lots of Polish commenters jumped in to show their love of Poland’s #1 most subscribed YouTuber, Niekryty Krytyk. I don’t speak a lick of Polish, but from what I can tell he runs a pretty slick, well-paced show over there.

Krytyk, who’s name roughly translates to ‘Roofless Critic,’ counts a number of US-based creators like Nostalgia Critic, Angry Video Game Nerd and Ray William Johnson as his influencers. Lately he’s been on a tear in Poland, racking up 129,000 subscribers so far and almost half of them coming in the past three months.

And who really needs American Idol when you have YouTube? There is so much musical talent busting out under the seams on the world’s largest video site, that it’s a new find every day if you’re up for weeding through the burgs of off-pitch wonders. Luckily 22 year-old North Carolina native Drew Chambers is anything but off-pitch in his covers of Adele, Beyonce and Lady Gaga. “Me Singing “Rollin In Deep” by Adele”

Rapping talent is everywhere too, like the female version of fast-rapper George Watsky, Lega-C, and Minecraft lyricist Hoj, who busts out a remix of Megaman.
