Viral Musician and Creator RAJIV DHALL Expands Digital Empire // New App, New Show & More!

 

It’s been a game-changing year for LA-based viral sensation Rajiv Dhall. After winning “Fan Fave Vine Musician” at the iHeart Radio Much Music Video Awards, putting out his single “Tempo” and creating dozens of highly viewed cover songs, Rajiv has been hard at work readying the debut of his latest venture: his own app.

The new app serves as a home base for Rajiv’s dedicated fans, who consist of nearly 2 million Vine followers and 700,000 YouTube subscribers. The app offers fans unprecedented ways of communicating directly with Rajiv – while also connecting with each other – and houses Rajiv’s new weekly show, Truth & Dare.

“This is one of the sickest things I’ve ever been able to do,” said Rajiv. “Starting now, this is officially the best place to get exclusive content from me while also getting to meet and talk with other fans. This isn’t going to be one of those apps where I rarely log in, and then you realize it’s not really me posting, and there’s nothing cool for the fans to do. It’s really me, my fans really will love it, and I’m going to be in here every day.”

Designed to offer unique experiences with each login, fans who download the app will be thrown into a virtual playground of free and subscribed content.

Highlights of the app include:

• Truth & Dare — Each week, fans will put Rajiv through extraordinarily ridiculous Q&A sessions (“Where is the strangest place you’ve been naked?”) and vote on borderline insane dares (“Go swimming…in the Bahamas…with giant sharks…and don’t use a cage for protection…)

• Rajiv Chat — The home feed is stylized as a chat thread with curated video programming, so Rajiv can post his most embarrassing content, watch TV live with his fans, and his fans can get to know each other via the group chats as well.

• Jiv’s Jib Jab — Daily lifestyle blog written by Rajiv (while his dog, Jax, oversees the editorial calendar).

• Merchandise — Do you even know who Happy Shark is???

• Contests & Giveaways — From free autographs, to customized merch, to a month-long walkabout in the Australian Outback while ankle-cuffed to Rajiv himself, the contests and giveaways will be very OMG and LMAO and SMH.

• Jivmojis — Because you’re not a social influencer until you have your own emoji keyboard.

Coinciding with the launch of his app, Rajiv also released a new music video today. Covering Andy Grammer’s chart-climbing hit, “Fresh Eyes,” the video shows Rajiv putting his own spin on the track while previews of his app thread the lush music video together.

Rajiv Dhall’s ascent into the limelight began on E!’s original show “Opening Act” where Rajiv’s band at the time won the opportunity to open for Gym Class Heroes. A few years and countless viral YouTube videos later, Rajiv moved from his home state of Michigan to continue his passion of music, entertainment and innovation. Anchored by his talent and passion for music, Rajiv’s star power burns brighter than ever after stepping into the roles of actor, entrepreneur, lifestyle expert and social media maven.
