Ryland Adams' TikTok is actually pretty funny! But, he does have one problem with the app.

TikTok has become the viral new trend that has captivated more than just Gen Z. While it initially started off as a teen-centric app, the short-form clips have become popular for celebs and adults. Many YouTube stars have begun creating videos on TikTok, participating in dances, challenges, and even lip-syncing to their favorite songs. 

Ryland started his TikTok journey on April 9 and has continued to grow his following on the app. But, in his new YouTube video he explained the one big problem that he has with it. 

"I have a lot of issues with TikTok being problematic to begin with. There's a lot of trends that really offend me," he stated. Though he briefly mentioned the offensive trend of making fun of handicap people "that don't have hands," he did not go into further details.
