#034 – Deji & Dayo Adebola – How They Went From Zero to 70 Million Views on One TikTok
How Deji & Dayo Went From Zero to 70 Million Views on One Viral TikTok Post
What does it take for two brothers to go from zero to 70 million views on a single post — with no monetization, no master plan, just pure fun?
In this episode of The Bits You Don’t See, I sit down with brothers Deji & Dayo Adebola, the comedy duo behind some of the internet’s funniest reels. We dive deep into how they grew from casual skits to viral stardom, what it’s really like dealing with trolls and clones, and why staying authentic is more important than chasing numbers.
Whether you’re a creator, entrepreneur, or just someone curious about the reality behind viral fame, this conversation will make you rethink how you see social media, success, and fun.
