Over the years, Youtube has diversified and grown to be a widely varied platform with users of all backgrounds.
With the number of channels increasing alongside countries and political entities, diversity keeps growing. Out of Barbados, there are dozens of well-known, popular channels running across various niches.
Today, that's what we're going to delve into the data. We've compiled a list of five of the most subscribed-to channels coming out of Barbados. We've used the website socialblade.com but cut through the noise to pull just the relevant ones.
When viewing the information on your own, you'll see a trend of channels using Barbados as their location without actually being based there. We've omitted those and the official channel for the international pop star, Rhianna, for this list and getting more unbiased local information.
With this insight, we'll get a more accurate look at the kind of content coming out of Barbados and what they are offering their audiences.
So, with that, let's get into it!
5. James Street Methodist Church Media Team - With 4.42k subscribers, we have the James Street Methodist Church channel. Their videos vary from daily devotions, weekly devotions, harvest, and preaching for their digital congregation to view. They host live streams, such as the one for the harvest festival. Since November 8th, 2016, the channel has been around and has 1,578,531 views total. Each video has high engagement, with daily uploads.
4. RupeeTV - With 18.2k subscribers comes RUPEETV, the official channel for soca musician Rupee, from Barbados. Known best for his songs, "Tempted to Touch," "Jump," and "What Happens in De Party," the channel offers fans a place to listen to his music and engage with the musician directly. Since November 26th, 2009, the track has been around and has 12,774,052 views total. Each video has anywhere from a few thousand to 1.9 million on one.
3. PMOBarbados - Next, at 21.1k subscribers, we have the official YouTube channel of the Prime Minister's office of Barbados. They began the track in October 2019 and have since gotten 3,749,405 views. The videos on the channel feature press releases, event announcements, and other public affairs-related content for the people of Barbados, with regular live streams for people to catch when they're online.
2. bajanmusicfan - with 24.2k subscribers and over 19,221,790 views since they joined in 2010, next up is bajanmusicfan. The channel has tons of videos, with hundreds or thousands of views each. They offer their subscribers a place to stream music from local stations in Barbados in the '60s, '70s, and '80s.
Before we get to number one on the list today, honourable mention goes to Brainy Bajan Beauty. The channel is a DIY beauty, project, hair, and makeup tutorial channel based in Barbados. They have their subscriber count hidden, so we can't add them to this list. Since they joined YouTube in 2010, they've netted 3,983,381 views, with anywhere from hundreds of thousands to millions of views on each video. It's probably safe to say the channel would be among these if we had an exact metric.
1. Starpoint Productions Official - Music Production and Publishing company, Starpoint, makes the number one spot on the list today. They started on August 9th, 2011, with 11,643,791 views to date and 26k subscribers. Their videos feature locally produced music, with varying views averaging anywhere from 400 to a couple of thousand views on each.
The sort of content we see on the internet varies significantly. Factors include location, age and gender. Barbados population is highly engaged with content that centres around religion, music, and beauty. The most subscribed channel to date out of Barbados is Rhianna's official channel. However, her audience is more international than others on this list. This list shows that if you're looking to do well for your target audience on the island of Barbados, pick a niche and stick with it.
