We caught up with popular Youtube creator about bridging anime and hip-hop, the fifth season of Vader, and the anime series that shaped his work.
Dominique Barrett, better known from his internet name, King Vader, is one of the most versatile and talented creators you will find on Youtube. He directs, writes, produces, and edits his hugely popular channel, King Vader, on Youtube. A reflection of his passions, Vader unites the world of anime and hip-hop with unique and creative parodies that pay tribute to his favorite artists and anime series. Some of his parodies, like Hood Naruto Episode 3 have over 20 million views. You won't find a lot of young creators out there who do as much as King Vader.
"My first anime was Dragon Ball Z: Broly movie, but the first anime I actually sat down, watched and paid attention to was Naruto. And Naruto is one of my top 10 favorite anime series, even to this day," Vader said about his first experience with anime.
The 24-year-old creator had his beginnings in Vine, the popular app that preceded TikTok. He had 500,000 followers there. But as most people know, Vine's popularity and existence was short lived. When the app announced it was going away, King Vader began questioning everything.
Not too long after the app went down, King Vader decided to transport his content to Youtube. It represented a challenge, considering the opposing structure of both platforms, for when you are as creative and hard-working as him, it's hard to imagine
"It took some adjustment. It's definitely different from creating a six-second Vine. Even though I posted short content on there, I always felt like long-form content was what I was creating. That's why Youtube came naturally," he said.
It doesn't matter if you're a life-long fan of Anime or if this is the first time you're being introduced it to. Vader has a unique way to grab your attention from the very first second of a video. He uses special effects, music, and his talented acting to pull you into his world.
