VEVO LIFT star Labrinth sees huge growth in fan base

London: VEVO LIFT star Labrinth sees huge growth in fan base, reveals live footage of his Brighton gig.

For the past eight weeks “Earthquake” and “Pass Out” star Labrinth has been part of the emerging artist promotion VEVO LIFT, which grants unparalleled access to the platform’s huge music video viewing audience.   LIFT contributed:

50MM VEVO editorial promotion impressions deployed

5MM total LIFT video views

12MM total video views during LIFT campaign

36MM total Video Views over lifetime: (+30% increase in views of all videos)

VEVO’s viewing figures since the 6th February LIFT launch show Labrinth received over 12 million video streams.  His Facebook “likes” also increased 155% and Twitter followers 37% over the same period.

Labrinth’s promotion as a LIFT artist is the first aimed at a UK audience, following the promotion’s success breaking British artists in the United States last year.

In 2011 the US version of VEVO LIFT supercharged Jessie J and Tinie Tempah’s careers as they were watched hundreds of millions of times on the platform.

To mark the end of his successful promotion, Labrinth will be announcing the next LIFT artist in a special final video next week.
