TikTok-er Tayler Holder is one of the platform’s biggest stars. Since rising to fame, he has explored his musical talents including releasing a song titled, “Human” earlier this year.

Holder recently sat down with uInterview founder Erik Meers to discuss the inspiration behind the relatable song.

“This year didn’t start off in the most ideal way,” Holder revealed. “I was going through relationship problems, breakups, family issues and it didn’t really have anything to do with the song, but I lost my best friend. I was just at my all time low. [This song] was just to let people know that there’s so many people who are also lonely, sad and depressed. People hold us to high standards because we have this platform and we have this image that we’re supposed to carry on. It’s just letting people know that I’m human just like everyone else. I make mistakes, I mess up, I fall, I’m broken just like everybody else. There are a lot of people that look up to us and want what we have. It just lets them know it’s really not as great as it seems. It’s not cool. There’s money with it and there’s followers and fame with it, but what is that at the end of the day if you’re losing yourself trying to find something you thought was so great? It’s a lot lonelier than you would think.”

Holder recently crossed over to the country genre in a collaboration with singer Reyna Roberts.

“We’re headed more into middle America,” he said. “We’re headed more into the country wave. I’ve known Reyna since I was like 16 years old, so it’s been seven or eight years. She has this amazing song called ‘Another Round.’ She already dropped it actually, but we ended up doing another version together.”

“Another Round” is available to stream exclusively on Amazon Music.
