Massive Musical.ly Hub ‘Flighthouse’ Launches YouTube Channel With Piper Rockelle, Ben Azelart, More

Musical.ly mega-channel Flighthouse — which posts trending songs and popular music edits, and counts roughly 18 million followers and 1 billion monthly views —  is making the foray over to YouTube with the launch of a brand new channel.

The hub will feature emerging Musical.ly stars including Piper Rockelle (pictured above), Sebastian Moy, and Ben Azelart — as well as guest appearances by more recognizable names like Baby Ariel, Kristen Hancher, and Daniel Skye. At launch, the channel will host three series: Piperazzi will chronicle the Los Angeles adventures of 10-year-old Rockelle, The Sebastion Moy Show will feature one-on-one interviews in Moy’s bedroom, and Bucket List will see 16-year-old Azelart as he attempts daring feats like surfing, skydiving, and zorbing.

Flighthouse was acquired by Create Music Group — which collects royalties for artists like Marshmello on YouTube and other platforms — over a year ago to serve as its original content division. Flighthouse is led by 19-year-old Jacob Pace

, and Create harbors aspirations of turning the property into “this generation’s MTV and Nickelodeon,” says CEO Jonathan Strauss. Create clocked $30 million in revenue last year, according to Billboard, and acquired the Flighthouse trademark for $50,000.

“We are excited to begin building our audience on YouTube, a platform that teens all over the world know and love,” Pace said in a statement. “The new Flighthouse shows are a magnified representation of each influencer’s brand. On YouTube, original content is king, and we think with these first three series people are going to continue to love and support Flighthouse.”
