Ricky Dillon is no longer making videos with Our2ndLife (because O2L is no longer active), but he still has a bustling YouTube career of his own. The vlogger with more than two million YouTube subscribers is looking to get into music, and to that end, he has released RPD, his debut EP.
RPD consists of five songs, which are available on iTunes for 99 cents each or $3.99 for all five. Over on his YouTube channel, Dillon has released music videos for two of the songs on his album. A week ago, he debuted a video for “Ignite,” and he has followed that up with a video for “Thunder and Lightning.“The song itself is a typical pop song with lots of auto-tune, but Dillon ups the ante by inviting a number of his fellow YouTubers–including thatsojack, Alexis Zall, and Joey Gatto–to join him in the video.
Beyond Dillon, two other former O2L members, Kian Lawley and Jc Caylen, have moved on by launching their own collaborative YouTube channel. Dillon’s career, which includes more than two million subscribers on his personal channel, seems to be taking a melodious turn, and his fans have already flocked to iTunes en masse in order to support him.
