Growing up, he wasn’t shy about his love for theater or performing which led him to endure periods of bullying. He began to use the now-defunct Vine as an outlet when he was 11, even addressing his viewers against bullying, and almost immediately began gaining attention. In the same year, he joined Musical.ly, where he made short videos of him lip-syncing popular songs. Over time, he became one of the most famous users of the app with 19.2 million followers.

Though Sartorius had amassed a huge following, he was continuously bullied at school and later said how he changed schools three times in 2015 due to verbal and physical abuse. Despite this, he continued using social media and accredits it with making him more social.

In 2016, Sartorius was gaining the attention of record labels and signed to an independent record company and released his first track, “Sweatshirt,” which made it to the Billboard top 100. Following the single’s success, he joined the Magcon tour, along with other internet personalities. After releasing several more pop tracks, Sartorius went on his first solo tour in the same year. The next year, he went international to multiple nations with a global tour titled: The Last Text World Tour.
In 2017, he managed to release two albums and his second EP Left Me Hangin’ is set to have its own US and Canada headlining tour. Sartorius kicks off the tour on January 18th, along with European dates in the spring.
Along with earnings from his tours, Sartorius also has a site that sells merch, from clothing to posters. With the time he has ahead of him and the success he’s already garnered, who knows what he could accomplish in the coming years.
