One thing that struck me is you're from Detroit but your banner seems to be of NYC.
As for the content, your editing and read certainly came off as professional. But a few notes, the tone felt very somber which could make it hard to really get an audience. You also tend to do very short edits that you really didn't elaborate enough on your ideas. It felt like the beginning of a documentary then turning off before you really made your points.

Set your channel up so it has the tabs, the Uploads/Playlist/About/Discussion tabs. Not to sound like a *****, but I almost turned away when I didn't see those. You HAVE to have them, they're essential to making your channel navigable.
Your videos were fine, I thought the editing was spot-on, but the one issue was the camera was a tad bit shaky. Maybe working on steadying your hand, some of the videos (the Detroit one in particular) could use work in that regard. But overall, I enjoyed your videos, as you upload more, you'll get better, and it's smart to keep these video types short. I think you're doing good with your channel so far!

Some issues
1. Music gets too loud.
2. Don't show borders. Record in 1080p or 720p
Suggestion: Put more emotion in your voice.

Like the video format but the black borders are turns off for general quality. Looks like your recording is not in HD, your video editing software may be able to stretch it but not sure.

Overall, your channel has a real personal touch and vibe. My recommendations really depend on what you want to get out of YouTube if anything at all. Are you trying to build an audience or are you just using it as an outlet for your thoughts and content and don't really care about growing. Let us know what your goals are and we can give the right advice

Hey man thank you for the honest opinions and I never really noticed about the whole documentary thing till you pointed it out so I will try and make my videos kinda more filling....if that makes any sense at all haha and my banner is of the Detroit skyline I can assure you of that!
Now after watching your videos and laughing a few times, I gotta say I really enjoy the content that you are making and your voice reminds me from the voice of Cinema Sins, but the big drawback I felt was like your banner and your thumbnails I didnt know what to truly expect when I first clicked onto your channel. I think your channel has really good quality videos, but I just think the banner could be cleaned up a bit.
Again thank you for the review means a lot[DOUBLEPOST=1443714469,1443713949][/DOUBLEPOST]
Thanks A lot man and the Detroit footage was really me trying out a GoPro for the first time and I have to be a lot more steady with it then my other camera that I use so that was just a learning curve I am still getting the hang of
I really enjoyed your channel I felt like the review of older games is a nice twist to the same gaming videos of Call of Duty/Minecraft that everyone is trying to do and like just the oldschool feel on your channel + Some like indie games was nice compared to the usual. Your voice is also very good for YouTube it was very energetic but not like too energetic where it is scary. Just keep uploading and I can see you going places
Thank you for the feedback once again[DOUBLEPOST=1443714546][/DOUBLEPOST]
In what video did the music get to loud?[DOUBLEPOST=1443714636][/DOUBLEPOST]
I record in HD all the time I just put the borders there because I figured it gave it a more cinematic effect imo, I didnt realize people didnt like it so I will definitely not put those into my next video[DOUBLEPOST=1443714766][/DOUBLEPOST]
To be honest idk where I want to go with YouTube, Im gonna do my best to just create nice content and make my next video better than my last. If I was to build an audience I would be fine with that, but I guess it isnt my main goal as of right now

Okay well in that case do as you please whatever makes you happy. Changing your banner and branding or content to appeal to others isn't your goal. Just as long as you enjoy it

Thanks man, I think my main goal is to just improve on my content and just make higher quality videos and if a fanbase was to follow then I would be happy and appreciate that. Also I find your channel to be super clean just by your channel trailer and how it was setup and really just grabbed my attention and everything was just really really really solid, like i think you should have 1 mil not 1k i mean the amount of work you put in your videos really show and I think you are doing a great job
