If you weren't keeping up with the news, this is Troye Sivan. He's the next big thing that just came out from YouTube. He's also not as lame as Justin Bieber.

Sivan is 19, and he's been vlogging since 2012. He now has 2.5 million subscribers and 100 million views.

His music is actually nice to listen to.

Troye wrote and released a lot of music independently before signing with EMI Music Australia. He didn't just land a record deal. He actually worked hard for it.

His EP, TRXYE is already charting worldwide, and has only been out for a week. More good work to come from this guy. Check out his single "Happy Little Pill":
