Canadian artist Zach Diamond was trying to put his dad on to his music and ended up putting a whole lot more people on in the process.
At the start of September, Diamond uploaded a video playing his song “Isolation” for his father in the car. His dad is shocked to learn his son made the catchy song, and the genuine reaction definitely makes for a much needed feel-good moment in these crazy times.
Unsurprisingly, the video’s gone viral – and now it’s helping push Diamond’s music. HipHopDX can confirm he’s gained over 10,000 Instagram followers since The Shade Room picked up the clip on Sunday (September 27).
“Thank you so much!” Diamond wrote in the comments on The Shade Room. “For those asking what the songs called just search up ‘Isolation Zach Diamond’ on any streaming platform.”
