Video Career

Jake’s video career kicked on in 2013. He started off posting videos on platforms like Vine. When Vine shut down, he had almost five million followers, and his videos had about two billion views. After his five-year run on Vine, which ended in 2017 when the platform shut down, Jake Paul was hired by the Disney Channel to be on the sitcom “Bizaardvark.” There he became popularly known for his catchphrase “It’s Everyday, Bro!”

Interestingly, this phrase is not even grammatically correct. “Everyday” means commonplace or routine, for instance: “these are my everyday pants.” So I’m pretty sure Jake Paul wanted to say, “It’s Every Day, Bro!” referring to something he repeatedly does daily.

By that time, he was surrounded by many controversies, including issues about his neighbors complaining because of his parties, pranks, and fire hazards.

When The Hollywood Reporter interviewed him, Jake Paul confirmed that Disney fired him because of his parties and how they became popular on the news.

After Disney, Jake Paul launched Team 10 in January 2017. This is a creative agency and digital influencer marketing platform that creates and promotes content for teenagers. In May 2017, he also released a rap song and music video named “It’s Everyday Bro,” which got a little above 70 million views in a single month.
