Bart Baker is an American entertainer, web-based comedian, video producer, singer and award-winning parody artist.[4][5][6][7][8] He is best known for making parody videos of notable songs on YouTube.[9][10][11][12] He was described as one of the most prolific makers of music parodies by Billboard.[13]

Early life

He went to film school at University of Miami. After realizing the potential of YouTube, he started filming music videos in his backyard on a green screen. Lonely Island was described as a 'big inspiration' to Baker when he first started.[14]

YouTube career

He was encouraged by his first video "Look Into My Eyes While I Masturbate" which was about few men masturbating. The video received about 100,000 views, which prompted Baker to decide on making more videos.[14] His second video was a parody, he said "I figured if I could do it right, my videos could do amazingly well... people want to subscribe to a channel they know has a certain programming structure. Mine is parody videos, and people love that".[14][15]

He has over 9 million subscribers and 2.6 billion lifetime views on his YouTube channel as of 24 February 2017.[16] Since starting the channel in 2009, he has created over 100 parody videos that have featured guest stars including Joan Rivers and Pitbull.[17] Speaking about YouTube, he said "YouTube is honestly one of the only platforms that has proven it's not going anywhere".[18] On 23 September 2016, it was announced that Baker would feature in a film titled "FML" starring fellow internet personalities Jason Nash and Brandon Calvillo.[19][20]

In 2015, he signed with Hollywood talent agency Creative Artists Agency.[21] It is the second time in four months Baker signed with a major Hollywood talent agency, the first being WME, when he was one of seven people who signed a deal.[21][22]

Musical career

In November, Baker released his first non-parody single titled "Drake".[17] It is also the debut single from his first album titled "Celebritease". He partnered with Music Choice, a multi-platform video and music network, to serve as the exclusive TV distribution partner for his single.[17] The album will be released through his own record label alongside indie label 26 Music, a division of 26 Entertainment.[17] "Kimye", was released as a single from his upcoming debut album.[5]

Controversy

Baker announced he was running for President of the United States by setting up a large billboard in Times Square, while wearing only boxer-briefs.[23] He believed that his presidential candidacy will shed light on the celebrity nature and how it has influenced the election cycle.[23][24]

Caitlin Dewey of The Washington Post described Baker's parody of Nicki Minaj's Anaconda as sexist. She said "It’s essentially just a string of misogynistic, slut-shaming insults, wearing the guise of a well-produced joke".[25]

Philanthropy

He discussed his involvement with "Fuck Cancer", a nonprofit charity which is dedicated to early detection, prevention and providing support to those affected by cancer, and his online fundraiser where fans can participate to win an appearance in one of his videos while donating money to the cause. The disease has impacted people in his own life including his mother who survived breast cancer when he was a child.[26]
