Pewdiepie disses Cocomelon youtube channel. YouTube took it down.
After dissing Indian Music company T-Series a couple of years ago, Youtuber PewDiePie is back with another diss called “Coco” towards another youtube channel which is about to surpass him in subscribers count. The children’s nursery rhyme Youtube channel ‘Cocomelon‘ has nearly 105 million subscribers, compared to Pewdiepie’s 109 million.
PewDiePie, YouTube’s most popular creator, has had one of his videos pulled down for breaking the platform’s regulations on child safety and harassment.PewDiePie, whose real name is Felix Kjellberg, had directed a diss track – a music video including playground insults — at a children’s nursery rhyme channel named Cocomelon.
Cocomelon had been creeping up on Kjellberg’s 109 million subscribers — it now stands at 105 million — which allowed for a diss track called “Coco.” The video featured several children and contained scenes such as the destruction of watermelon and lines like “f— everything you love, and most of all, f— you,” and “your audience is just a bunch of motherf—ing virgins.”
YouTube took the video down claiming it violates the YouTube Policy.
(1/2) To clarify, this violated two policies 1) Child safety: by looking like it was made for kids but containing inappropriate content (incl violence) 2) Harassment: we allow criticism & also diss tracks in some cases, but w/ both policies in mind, this video crossed the line. pic.twitter.com/PmEqkQXhAu

Although it is a comedic diss track, still it includes a lot of swearing and he also takes shots at controversial Brooklyn rapper 6ix9ine.
Some observers are relieved that the video has been deleted since they believe the song is improper. Many followers of Kjellberg, on the other hand, perceive it as illogical and hypocritical of YouTube, which expressly excludes diss recordings from its standards, claiming them as “scripted satire.”
“Don’t tell your mama, don’t be a f**king snitch
Don’t be like 6ix9ine, that rainbow f**kin’ b*tch”
Don’t tell your mama, don’t be a f**king snitch<br> Don’t be like 6ix9ine, that rainbow f**kin’ bi**h

He ends the track with a famous Eminem sequence of ending many songs in his career, including Machine Gun Kelly’s diss “Killshot“. Check out the Genius annotation of it below.
I’m just playin’ Coco, you know I love you
