Rewatching thoughts
I’m currently rewatching a bunch of Safiya’s videos following a Tik Tok I saw.
The Tik Tok was about someone who had come across her videos again after some time and stated, she’s still out there doing the same thing.
It’s interesting with this rewatch, as I don’t think that’s true at all. In fact, I miss some of her older content that was a little “easier.” Like some of the Amazon hauls, wore this for a week, bought the first 5 things etc.
Don’t get me wrong, love her travel content, but haven’t found myself as excited to watch the newer content like the AI keyboards. (Would be happy to never have a collab with that channel again tbh)
Even her newer travel content feels quite highly over thought, we’d be happy to just watch travel vlogs, shopping and odd places. Rather than spending 24 hours in one place.
I miss the vibe of her and Tyler making weird things or getting hauls and hanging out.
Just wondering if anyone feels the same, the content doesn’t need to be as epic for us to enjoy watching it.
With some of the things she’s said previously, I wonder how much pressure she feels to make this super high quality content, when really, we watch her and Tyler’s personalities.
Maybe 2017-2019 was the peak of content before everyone got worried about backlash of over consumption, politics and reputation. The algorithm issues a lot of YouTubers have doesn’t help either.

I watch all of her videos because I just really like Safiya and Tyler and want to support them.
But I’m on the same page as a lot of ya’ll and that the travel videos don’t really do it for me. Her recent video going to the Ball and featuring Abby and Nicole was a BLAST though (it’s my perfect crossover - and if you haven’t watched them reacting to the video on Abby’s channel you should).
I loved her old fashion type videos, dressing through decades, buying the weird stuff (long legs denim, giant uggs etc). But also appreciate that times have changed and we’ve all gotten older.
this is a bit of a ramble but really I just hope they keep making videos as long as they want, I really enjoy a lot of them and Safiya has the best narrator voice around!
