After Silento put out "Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)," he was everywhere, like every party and TikTok video for months. But, honestly, it kind of seemed like overnight everyone moved on, and he pretty much disappeared from the charts. I remember hearing that after the hype, he struggled to put out music that people actually cared about. He didn't really have another big hit after that.

Things apparently got way worse for him personally. Silento started having some serious mental health issues, and it made the news a few times. People said he got arrested more than once, and there was a lot of drama. It all led up to that whole tragedy with his cousin, which is just heartbreaking.

So yeah, his career crashed pretty hard after that one song, and then his personal life got super messy. I can't even imagine how tough it must've been to go from being famous like that to ending up in such a bad spot. It just shows fame isn't everything, and things can go wrong really quick if you don't have support, especially with mental health.
