Part 6: VladTV YouTube Master Class: DJ Akademiks on Growing His Channel, Most He Made from 1 Video
--------
Hip-hop artist and host Math Hoffa shared insights into how he grew his YouTube channel to over one million subscribers. Hoffa revealed he started his channel more than 13 years ago, initially posting music videos and freestyles without consistency. The breakthrough came about three years ago when he launched the "My Expert Opinion" podcast, focused on genuine barbershop-style conversations with hip-hop legends, producers, and CEOs.
He credits his success to consistency, especially during the pandemic when he went live every night at 10 PM, incentivizing punctuality with cash rewards for viewers who caught him late. Hoffa also highlighted that intriguing content like conspiracy discussions and exclusive interviews help videos gain traction. Notably, an interview with Derrick Rose reportedly earned him $42,000 from ads. Hoffa reached substantial earnings within his first year of consistency, proving that authenticity and dedication are key to growing a successful, monetized YouTube channel.
