Max YouTube Cover Star

Max Schneider sings a lot of cover songs. He can carry a tune, any tune. He sings a lot of songs with angst. 7 years after, he still sings covers, thanks to collaborating with genius musician Kurt Hugo Schneider KHS and fellow vocalists Sam Tsui and Victoria Justice.

His channel Max has a base of over 1.7 million subscribers. Posts have been viewed by billions of YouTube visitors. At age 27, his net worth is estimated to be over $1M. (Kurt at age 29 in 2017 net worth is over $5M).

How he reached that stature is through YouTube.
What can’t Max, the incredible, young and talented singer not sing? What KHS can not play?


In USA Today article published 2014, singing covers paid off for actor Max Schneider "LOS ANGELES — Singing his version of pop hits by Justin Timberlake and Bruno Mars has paid off for actor Max Schneider. His YouTube channel has more than 700,000 subscribers and helped get his name out there. He co-stars in NBC's Crisis TV show, and is about to embark on a 24-city tour singing his own material, thanks to his growing online fan base. He told us about why so many folks start off singing other people's hits in a recent interview at USA TODAY's L.A. offices."



Here are some of his cover songs posted 5-7 years ago many of which are among my favorites.

Max in his Sugar post gives tips on how aspiring musicians can build a career in pop music.

Manila has both talentented vocalists and musicians. Online infrastructure is in place though unstable at times (internet speed of at least 50 Mbps to support 4K quality. 4K LED TVs available at local appliance stores). Studios can be built.

The template for success has been decoded and deconstructed. Can Manila replicate Max's story? Abangan.
