ASÍ ES INTERNET (2015)

RickyEdit's song "ASÍ ES INTERNET (2015)" is a satirical commentary on the fleeting and often absurd trends that dominate social media. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of how quickly new fads emerge and how people, driven by a desire for social validation, eagerly participate in them. From taking photos with a vacuum cleaner to performing dangerous stunts, the song highlights the lengths to which individuals will go to be part of the latest craze. The artist uses humor and irony to critique this behavior, pointing out the ridiculousness of these trends while also acknowledging their pervasive influence.

The song also delves into the culture of online criticism and the performative nature of social media. RickyEdit mentions how YouTube trends involve critiquing popular figures or sharing overly personal content, such as "50 things about me" videos. This reflects a broader commentary on how social media platforms encourage users to share intimate details of their lives for public consumption, often leading to a loss of authenticity. The reference to the infamous dress color debate (white and gold or blue and black) serves as a metaphor for how trivial matters can captivate the collective attention of the internet.

RickyEdit's playful yet critical tone invites listeners to reflect on their own participation in these trends. By mentioning his own presence on Twitter and Instagram, he subtly includes himself in the critique, suggesting that no one is entirely immune to the allure of social media. The song concludes with a nod to the Ice Bucket Challenge, a viral trend that, despite its good intentions, also exemplifies the performative aspect of online behavior. Through "ASÍ ES INTERNET (2015)", RickyEdit offers a humorous yet thought-provoking exploration of the internet's impact on modern culture.
