A) These comments must be filtered because....no. B) Atp I'm just a masochist. These gay pop-the-balloon episodes are so depressing, but I stay watching. Bad attitudes, hypersexuality, zodiac sign dealbreakers, and superficiality. Annoying & toxic af. I'm like "is this my dating pool?" 😮💨
Friend, I’m rooting for you! I really am. I love this format centered on gay men. And I can tell you’re working hard and put a lot of work in it to building your brand and your show. So kudos for that. Pulling this off is a lot of work, and it’s nice to see things centered for queer people. Please continue to try to improve the pool of contestants. I know it’s hard. Advertise hard on the apps and social media, and interview them first through video chat to make sure they aren’t as boring and clueless as week old pound cake. I’d rather have people who can finish a sentence, than people who are just cute or “stylish” (or think they are). Get some older gherls and guys too, because some of these 20-something clubbers party so much they can’t communicate more than three words. And if you’re going to have multiracial “fish in the sea”, then find contestants who are cool with interracial relationships; we would be super offended if this was a white-majority show and they told a black contestant “I only date white guys”. But, again, kudos to you for the work. I know it takes a while when you’re just starting out and everything starts somewhere. You’re doing awesome, and I’m looking forward to seeing where things go. Even some of these contestants have been a wreck, the show itself, your hosting, and the work is awesome!
Every race and group outside of ours encourages the people to date within their race. Asians with Asians, white with white, Jewish with Jewish, etc. I don’t understand why Black people are being condemned for wanting to date someone who resonates with their life experience, nobody will ever understand a black man or woman better than their own. Y’all have that bad to want to be the model citizen when everybody else is looking out for their own people. There is nothing wrong with them popping because they don’t want to date a white person, nobody questions other races on why they don’t want to date us so why do we do it to our own people? Let people decide for themselves instead of telling them that they are childish or will end up alone because they didn’t want to date someone who couldn’t identify with the lens they see the world in. This isn’t a knock to Trackz, because obviously opening up and allowing this to be multi racial is beneficial to the amount of contestants he will have but, our community is our safe space and you guys should not be trying to deny people of wanting to be with their own.
I agree with this WHOLEHEARTEDLY!! Every race has always encourages their people to date within so much so that their willing to cut their child off if they bring home a black person but us black folk is always trying to push for dating outside SideNote: I support interracial relationships though I never been in one I’m definitely open to it! But like you said black people shouldn’t be condemned for wanting to date inside our race!!
You see the “military/dancer guy? When matched with the short guy, my heart exploded in excitement 😅because as soon as that short guy walked in, the military/dancer KNEW IMMEDIATELY. There’s this excitement on his face that he couldn’t contain, his heart was racing so hard, he couldn’t breathe and he KNEW THAT “THIS IS MY MAN”. The most genuine match I have seen in all similar shows and beyond… The heart knows what it wants. I felt like I was reading an old high school love story novel watch his emotions walk all over him. I pray for them to be permanent in love amen❤
This was a good episode everybody was respectful and well mannered and asked pretty good questions. Everybody seemed educated n had sum cool careers as well. I was crushing over Joey 😍😍 cute self
@@Trackz_Official diversity includes alot such as personalites and how someone dresses. There is not an even split of hispanic, black and white men. Consider two of each race.
I really enjoyed this episode. Some of the single guys are going deeper with their questions this episode. While many of them popped their balloons prematurely and asked questions later (bad sign of act now, think later or worse, being reactive instead of being proactive at face value), it's great that many of the single guys sought out clarity to make intentional efforts at making genuine connections. Dior is a cutie! But the real star is Ike (aka Trackz) looking dapper and gorgeous with the purple pants on (purple is his color). My only feedback is I think the person who introduces Ike should do so with more enthusiasm and fire because it's a show and he should want to bring elevated energy to engage with the audience watching, especially when Ike comes out. He didn't have elevated energy and he was not enunciating when he introduced Ike, which caused me to replay the intro a few times to make out what he said. Aside from that feedback, the show was enjoyable, especially with Ike (Trackz) as the host!
The second guy was so fine, loved the fit, skin poppin, hair was cute. Third guy was a cutie, loved the fit and skin tone. Coming on balloon pop with colored contacts is BRAVE, but he got a match so hey. SHOCKED Tony didn’t pop for Survivor pants, and 23 is WILD. Lastly, wtf does Slim need a personal assistant for ?? 😂
As a black man. I’m attracted to ever is attracted to me regardless of what race. The first guy i don’t find him attractive and he probably wouldn’t find me attractive.
A) I loved the diversity shown in this video !! Like all I’m 1000% here for my African men finding love but just to see more inclusion with everyone shows the integrity of this channel❤ B) yo these bachelor’s are something else. The amount of will it took for trackz not to laugh is insane 😂😭 good laugh tho
Throughout the first two contestants I was thinking to myself "I guess I have to accept that the show won't be quite as dramatic as the original because we simply aren't as messy as the heteros." And then CONTESTANT NUMBER THREE CAME OUT
Babbbbbyyyy I am screaming at contestant #2!!! Baby he ain't even care for them questions, it didn't matter. Tracks "I see a few popped balloons" nah you see all the balloons popped bolll
RE:racial preference pushback..Tracks, I think it depends on how deep you want to go and what values you want uplifted as part of your personal brand as it relates to your (you and your team’s) show. My recommendation would be to ask why and push for a deeper answer than “I just don’t” cause there is often a deeper one “I would worry about being micro aggressed by their family” or “I would have a hard time with connection because I fear we have lived in two different worlds” or “I desire a certain level of commonality or relatability with my lived experience that most same raced folks have”. Depending on how you want to grow your channel you may pocket off or have an offshoot episode on somethings that come up. (Like a debrief and reflections episode with the team) Some thoughts.
This. Either coach them to explain deeper reasons for why they reject someone outside of their race if that’s a deciding factor, or just have them leave it be. Because the Devin rejection moments were awkward & uncomfortable, and even a bit offensive: because they don’t spell out the deeper reasons for the rejection, so the language winds up sounding like the same language we hear from people who are operating in bigotry. If this were a white-majority show, and a white contestant rejected a Black contestant and simply said “I don’t date Black guys”, we would be up in arms. Let’s not be the same way. Especially since our motivations for why we don’t always date outside our race isn’t the same as there’s - as you say, it’s often rooted in fear of microaggressions or just full-on aggression and bigotry. Communicate that and have the deeper conversations, the same way we’re having deeper conversations around LGBTQ lifestyle. Especially, if you’re going to have a selection of people who are of different races. Either make sure the contestants who is selecting from the group is comfortable with interracial dating, or can intelligently explain why they aren’t in a way that doesn’t just sound like bigotry or ignorance.
I don’t think white individuals should be on here period. Gay white men fetishize and demean black queer folk enough. The white boy’s balloon would’ve been popped immediately for me.
@@allegroaffettuoso9012I understand your point of view, however this is not a majority show, and most people tend to stick with their own regardless of how interracial relationships are normalized. I think it would be too awkward having to explain the specifics of why you aren’t interested in someone.
It’s amazing how it’s okay for someone to say that “I am not into white guys” but if it was the other way around hell would break loose 😂😂😂😂 the double standards
Its good to be old. I mean i watch because of Trax . Great spirit and host. When you old the top bottom thing is out the window. These kids need ten or so years to wake up.
@@dariusthurston2167 you're never too old to get you some young thang. Just gotta pay for a Scat and rent. You know what the boys like pops, you ain't got it.
Thanks for a great episode! I usually have a few complaints after each one of these but I have no bad comments! Good line up! I guess I didn’t like Yoni attitude but the guys handled it well.
Two things why pop your balloon and then ask all these Questions cause you presume the hair stylist are wh0res? Second JUSTICE FOR SLIMM’S ASSISTANT! But I truly like that he came on and tried and didn’t sway even though they kept popping his balloon. Team CONFIDENCE ♥️♥️♥️
Enjoying the episodes. I know you must grow and include others, but I sure enjoy an exclusive show for gay and bi men. Nevertheless, I want you to grow, and I will continue to watch all of the shows featuring the fellas. Love the multi-racial component as well. I agree with the other commentary, make sure people are cool with a multiracial line-up to prevent it from being cringy. I felt bad for the white and Hispanic looking guys. Great job, Ike! 😀
Kudos my guy on another good episode! Why did this feel like speed dating though? I like the deeper question you asked later on. I wish these guys could be held accountable to express their “type” and when they pop, do it for more than someone’s shoes. I liked when the nose ring came out, proving the point that clothes and jewelry come off.
The videos are so short...i need mor gay love. I know it takes times to make these videos and organization. I am hoping your channel grow and we can get more content.
On the appication, the guys should state their femininity from 1-10 and if they are bottom or top so if the guy who comes out to match with a guy from a line up is fem and bottom he could select from the line up who likes to be on top and vice versa.
Contestant 1 energy is great vibe is very positive and energetic do you watch the show Tamar ?🥴 the question of goals was so fresh from last episode however we see why he is a hairstylist Contestant 2 energy shifting very much 360 just because he felt rejected " nothing next " His facial expressions were teaaa😭 Yo he was mad Contestant 3 well episode of the best hairstyle I see lol Very defensive in his first response you can tell he felt attacked by the smoking reasoning behind the pop but later become more clear " you a hypocrite " " you heard I do hair you just assumed I was a hoe " OMMGGG😭😂 " hold my hand real quick “ 😭😭 he is HILARIOUS He deserve that match ngl Contestant 4 very strict like Damm 😂 The height was definitely his handicap unfortunately But his energy was good very positive and brightening the room ! " I ain't going pop no balloons " 😭 Contestant 5 " IF YOU GOT THAT GOOD GOOD YOU GOT THAT GOOD " " Can I speed this up ? " Baby he came very secure very much I know what I want and left with his match OKAYYY✨ The question the host asked>>>>>> Ps: the lineup is very fiery love the energy “ head his way” 😭 Toni was so articulate but baby he has STANDARDS he was poping balloon in a heartbeat but when that last contestant came he was in child Shawn was very unsure at first you can tell he is an over thinker Malick key word TRIM
That white man should of known in a room full of Black men that he wouldn't be chosen. It would have been same if all of them were white and there was one Black men. With that said they didnt have to be rude to him. He seemed nice
The guy that was a flight attendant shouldn’t have taken his nose ring out. If I have a nose ring or tattoos, this is who I am. I’m not changing that to fit someone else standards.
