YouTube announced that they will not be releasing any Rewind videos in 2020 and no one seemed to care to rally for its return. Jimmy &#8220;MrBeast&#8221; Donaldson, known for his massive antics on YouTube and philanthropic efforts, has taken up the mantle. But what does this mean for the future of the Rewind tradition?<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTube_Rewind_2018\"><\/span>YouTube Rewind 2018<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This year&#8217;s YouTube Rewind failed to mention the Logan Paul v KSI boxing match and Turn Down for 2014, which were two of the most talked about moments of 2018. The resulting controversy caused many to call the video &#8220;political&#8221; and &#8220;tone-deaf.&#8221; In response, DramaAlert host Keemstar argued that the video was the worst in terms of content, and that it was an example of a disconnect between the brand and its audience.<\/p>\n<p>Despite YouTube&#8217;s best efforts to avoid controversy, the video still received widespread criticism for not featuring big names. PewDiePie, a popular YouTube personality, made a cameo in the video, and his pewter-y fight with T-Series was an enduring hit. PewDiePie, however, faced several backlash after he was accused of anti-Semitism, racism, and sexism. He was even banned from the ad platform Google has developed for its videos.<\/p>\n<p>After the video premiered on December 6, the video quickly went viral. It reached the top ten most disliked videos on YouTube. It was no longer the most popular video, and two days ago reached 10.3 million dislikes. The previous most-disliked video was Justin Bieber&#8217;s &#8220;Baby.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTube_Rewind_2019\"><\/span>YouTube Rewind 2019<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When YouTube first announced the concept of &#8220;Year in Review,&#8221; it promised to create a compilation video highlighting the best content from the previous year. Originally a small compilation, it quickly grew into a massive production. Creators and content providers began producing their own Rewind videos, mocking the original. However, it was ultimately too popular for YouTube to keep. The video has since been deleted. The reason behind the deletion remains unclear.<\/p>\n<p>The video opened with clips of YouTubers cringing over the previous year&#8217;s YouTube Rewind. Then it continued with a top ten list featuring a few of the biggest videos and creators of the past year. While the video had cringe-worthy moments, the community was largely unsatisfied with the content. After two days of release, the video received nearly 250,000 dislikes. Many angry users left comments that criticized the video.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of the controversy, the YouTube Rewind series was deleted. The annual end of year video was a source of great anticipation for people. However, the 2019 Rewind was met with harsh criticism. YouTube also denied that it was removed because of the content in the video. The reason given for its removal is that the company believes it is too big to create a single video that captures all the best of the year.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTube_Rewind_2021\"><\/span>YouTube Rewind 2021<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After generating more than 1,600 likes on its official Facebook page, YouTube Rewind has been canceled. The company says that it will focus on developing a new version of the popular video feature and it will need the help of creators. YouTube has denied that the decision to remove Rewind is related to mass criticism, but it has admitted that a new Rewind will be coming in 2020. There are no other details on why the video was deleted, but the popularity of the video is likely to decrease.<\/p>\n<p>The video&#8217;s removal is a blow to the site&#8217;s 10th anniversary, as well as the community that created it. It failed to represent the community it was created to serve, and it was disconnected from current trends. It quickly became an internet laughing stock, and its creators were shunned online. YouTube&#8217;s decision to remove the video was prompted by the backlash, and big-name YouTube stars called for its removal.<\/p>\n<p>The controversies surrounding Rewind are a blemish on the company&#8217;s brand image. While YouTube&#8217;s efforts were made to minimize potential risks to its image, the event&#8217;s removal did more harm than good. The removal of MrBeast&#8217;s video left many fans feeling confused, but the video&#8217;s content was popular among viewers. This means that it will be difficult to get viewers to watch the video again.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2lAe1cqCOXo\" height=\"286\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Was YouTube Rewind 2022 Deleted?
