%%* CoolHat: Scarfman.

* NiceHat: Hip-Hop's.

** Indie comes off as this sometimes as well.

** Among Hip-Hop's suggestions for the new My Music show while a part of Metal Town were: [[Series/GameOfThrones Game of Booties]], [[Series/PrettyLittleLiars Pretty Little Booties]] and [[MyLittlePony My Little Booty]].

* ThoseTwoGuys: Techno and Dubstep.

* XRaySparks: Pops up during "The Jolt" music video.

* MulticoloredHair: Scene's.

** Dubstep delivers one to convince ROTFL:BRBTTYL:) to stay at [=My=]Music and stop everyone fighting. It works but hardly anyone understood it, even though ROTFL:BRBTTYL:) did.

* InsaneTrollLogic: Metal eventually starts [[NonSequiturFallacy making absurd leaps in logic]] during his "argument" with Intern 2 about Rayna:

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: InUniverse. Intern 2 points out that The Jolt music video inspires kids to electrocute themselves for fun. Everyone else yells to him "Shut up Intern 2!"

* TooSoon: Invoked word-for-word with one of ROTFL:BRBTTYL:)'s past dances, [[BlackComedy "The Katrina"]].

** [[Film/TheNuttyProfessor Hip-Hop's actor portrays every member of his family.]] There's even a DirtyOldWoman grandma!

* {{Hipster}}: [[CaptainObvious Indie, of course]].

* BigDamnKiss: Parodied in season 1 with [[spoiler:Intern 2 and Metal]]. Then played straight at the end of season 2 with [[spoiler:Scene and Intern 2]], only to be parodied again with [[spoiler:Techno and Dubstep.]]

** If you follow ''WebVideo/TeensReact'', Jourdan mentioned having a twin about three months before they both appear here.

* EvenEvilHasStandards / ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Satan fled along with Shaman the moment they heard [=MyMusic=] got involved with 4chan.

** Old Metal is called a poser due to his liking of Papa Roach and stereotypical lack of knowledge about "real" metal.

** [[WebVideo/KidsReact Athena's]] character is named [[Manga/DragonBall Lunch]].

** "My spidey senses are tingling Intern 2"

* TheCameo: Creator/{{Tobuscus}} as Satan appears several times, but very briefly.
** Rebecca Black gets one in episode 6.
** A flashback of Intern 2's childhood (sans TimeShiftedActor for some reason) involves [[ThemeNaming Sydney, Paris,]] Troy and Everhet from ''WebVideo/KidsReact''.

** And Steve Greene Comedy as the News Anchor in episode #17
** Harley Morestein as Jesus

* FelonyMisdemeanor: When Tina is asked about what her greatest lie, it's that she claimed lemon bars are low calorie when they aren't.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler:[[WebVideo/TeensReact Lia Marie Johnson]]]]'s photo has been in Metal's title card since ep. 1.

* {{Jerkass}}: Indie but he grows to be a JerkWithAHeartOfGold.
* [[spoiler: JerkassFacade: Hip-Hop]].

--> '''Intern 2''': ''[stutters]'' No, you look perfectly fine, Metal.

* [[spoiler: JerkassFacade: Hip-Hop]]

--> '''Country''': "Wow! That's almost as big as the porn star James Dean's pe… pe… piece that I got when I met him at the County Fair"

---> '''Nancy Spackman''': "Its as if you all just exist in this series of cyclical interwoven plotlines in which you do nothing but bicker and almost get fired and then burn down whatever building that you happen to be working in, all the while inserting inane and pithy references to contemporary music."

* MediumAwareness: When seeing the flashback of what happened to the last poser (the former Metal), Intern 2 questions how they could see it, noting they didn't have the cameras back then. Hip-Hop then reveals they have a flashback cam which was made by Creator/JamesCameron and Creator/GeorgeLucas.

* MundaneUtility: Satan's trident makes a good fork. Metal's sword makes a good knife.

** Idol. Her nickname seems to refer more to her status as a social media idol/icon than her mainstream music taste.

--> '''Intern 2''': [stutters] No, you look perfectly fine, Metal.

* OverprotectiveDad: Metal. [[spoiler: He flip-flops being mad at Intern 2 for rejecting Rayna one moment then being mad because he thinks Intern 2's trying to get with her the next]].

* PlatonicLifePartners: Techno and Dubstep. Though it wouldn't be surprising if they were a couple. [[FanPreferredCouple Fans hope they are]].
** [[spoiler:Zig-zagged]] in the final episode of Season 2; [[spoiler:after seeing the kiss between Scene and Flowchart, they wonder if they would be better suited as a romantic couple. They share a long and passionate kiss before realising that neither of them are actually interested in a relationship and go back to being friends, and the trope is played straight once again.]]
** [[spoiler: Scene goes into one briefly after Straight Edge takes her first kiss from her.]]

* RunningGag: Intern 2's constant abuse, Scene pining over Indie.

** And after he became Hip-Hop's secret keeper, Intern 2 would be constantly shot or hurt by him in front of Indie to avoid being seen as a poser. He then follows with the line delivering it with the most feminine voice possible:
--> '''Hip-Hop:''' I'm so sorry. I had to.
** It seems that a lot of characters have powers that they can only use every ten years. Said characters include Idol, Rayna, Indie, [[spoiler:Techno and Dubstep.]]

* ScaryBlackMan: Hip-Hop. [[spoiler: It's an act. However, he is willing to shoot someone in the limb to keep his act up.]]

* SecurityCling: Techno to Dubstep when they are confronted by Hip-Hop and Indie ([[MyFriendsAndZoidberg and that guy]]), when Hip-Hop is being threatening.

* AbhorrentAdmirer:
** Scene towards Indie at first. It's downplayed because of it being mostly [[PlayedForLaughs used for short jokes]] and Indie's stoicness; he usually just ignores her instead of displaying any kind of strong reaction. Later subverted when it's shown Indie non-romantically cares for Scene to an extent, restoring her back to her original personality during her identity crisis after learning she fell in love with him because of his authenticity.

* ImCryingButIDontKnowWhy: Scene always cries at exactly 2 o'clock for no particular reason except that it has something to do with Tumblr. She instantly stops when it's 2:01.

* AbhorrentAdmirer: Scene is sort of this towards Indie, if Indie in fact knows how she feels.

* [[AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents Amazingly Embarrassing Family]]: Metal's. He cringes at the idea of bringing them to work.
--> '''Metal''' (When asked what his favorite part of his job is): Getting away from my [[LastSecondWordSwap fam- neighbors]].
** Rayna thinks her dad is an [[AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents Amazingly Embarrassing Parent]].

** Episode 18 has Indie state "What have we done?" in a sad and sombre tone after he sees the news report on The Jolt endangering kids. The opening theme qucikly follows and then we see that he's actually celebrating [=My=]Music's new fame.
** Just when it sounds like we're going to find out what Intern 2's real name is

--> [[spoiler:'''Acid Factory Employee''']]:"Employee 41512"
* BerserkButton: Don't ever call Techno [[InterchangeableAsianCultures J-Pop]].

* BoltOfDivineRetribution: Rayna can summon a lightning bolt every ten years. [[BrickJoke Maybe she should have saved that...]]

* BrickJoke: Intern 2 says that he doesn't have it as bad as the Rat Protector who is shown being more or less eaten by large rats. Later the same episode Indie threatens to feed Idol to the giant rats.
** Lunch confronting Hip-Hop while pulling out a megaphone. It's not from some {{Hammerspace}}, it's actually part of ''My Music'' inventory, intended to replace the fire owls.

* ButtMonkey: Intern 2 is used as a footstool, [[ItMakesSenseInContext is offered as a meal by Indie]], told to shut up even when he's not speaking, is slapped, has stuff shoved off his desk and his laptop smashed, is yelled at by Metal for picking up Rayna's lipgloss, beaten up and stuffed into a trashcan by Metal and is generally treated as if he is unimportant. Indie even tells Metal that Intern 2 can be ignored (along with Scene, who didn't seem to mind).

** Scene is arguably this too, as the others as constantly commenting on how annoying she is, is totally to shut the[[SoundEffectBleep *BLEEP*]] up twice, and Indie even shoves her into a wall at one point simply for wanting to talk to him when he wanted to speak to Hip Hop.
** Neither has it as bad as the Rat Protector, but Indie yells at Intern 2 to go protect the rats.
** Seems to be subverted [[spoiler: in Intern 2's case when [[CharacterDevelopment Hip Hop saves him from being fired and Indie starts to show him some respect]].]]

** Idol mentions this trope by name during a sign-off.

** Hip-Hop's "They scary!" (Ghosts) and "Ass".

** Techno's "PLUR"

* GeniusDitz: Mental's [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} odd way of thinking]] seems legitimate, but he's one of the most competent employees. He not only runs everything related to production, but he also [[spoiler: fixed the entire company himself when he took over. Well, until Indie [[ResetButton reset all of his hard work]]]].

* {{Goth}}: Gorgol

* HilariousInHindsight: In Season 2, Country stereotypically says "Do what?" or "Do what now?", a phrase associated with southerners and more-or-less equivalent to "Huh?". Way back in Season 1 Episode 1 ("It Begins Again"), Intern 2 says the same thing in response to Indie naming Scene and him as Metal's production assistants:

* HollywoodToneDeaf: Idol

* KnownOnlyByTheirNickname: Most of the staff members are never called by their real names in the main show.
--> '''Indie:''' Broad stereotypes are ''way'' easier to remember than names.

* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Frequently
--> '''Techno''': "Good idea Dubstep, lets lighten things up with some dancing, that's a great way to end the episode!... Oh, did I say episode? I meant day. Great way to end the day!"

* NuMetal / RapMetal: Old Metal is called a poser due to his like of Papa Roach and stereotypical lack of knowledge about "real" metal.
** Although Metal named his daughter after a member of Coal Chamber, a nu metal band. Plus, his favorite song lyric is from System of a Down, another nu metal band.
* ObliviousToLove: Indie doesn't seem to realize how much of a crush Scene has on him, or else he ignores her.
** Come season 2, it obvious he is just ignoring her.

* OddNameOut: Intern 2 wasn't nicknamed by Indie, because he enjoys music from many genres.

* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: All of the staff (except for Intern 2) are exclusively called by the name of their favourite style of music. This leads to character names such as Metal, Scene, Indie, Hip Hop, Techno, Dubstep, and Idol.
** [[spoiler:Intern 2 later gets the nickname Flow Chart]]

** In Season 2, it happens again with Hip Hop and Intern 2.

* ShowWithinAShow: A rather interesting and unique example in that all the shows produced by the My Music staff are actually made in real life and uploaded to Website/YouTube for the general public.

* SpeakOfTheDevil: Scene ends up name dropping Website/FourChan's name during an interview which summons them. There are consequences for summoning them publicly like the company losing all their guests and being forced to listen to Daughtry. The name is treated so seriously that the 'chan' part gets bleeped out.

* StatusQuoIsGod
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: The season 2 credits list the Female Cop as played by 'Definitely probably not Lee Newton'

** Just the idea of Satan being involved in television production.
* TeensAreMonsters: Invoked in season 2 with the bulk of Scene's classmates.
* ThemeNaming: Every is named after the type of music they like.[[note]][[RunningGag Except Intern 2.]][[/note]]

* TonightSomeoneKisses: Episode #12 is called "THEY FINALLY KISS!" Turns out "they" are [[spoiler: Intern #2 and Metal]]. Yes, really.

* TrainingMontage: During Episode # 6, Indie's father trains Indie to revert back to his HipSter ways.

* YouLookFamiliar: Lee Newton goes from a cameo as a cop in season 1 to regular status as Idol's SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute Country in season 2.
** Becomes ActingForTwo when Newton plays the cop again in season 2 ep 23. It's never explained why both characters look the same.
--> '''Indie''': "Do you have a twin sister"

--> '''Female Cop''': "I'm positive"

* HilariousInHindsight: In Season 2, Country says "Do what?" or "Do what now?" almost to the point of being her CatchPhrase, a phrase associated with southerners and more-or-less equivalent to "Huh?". Way back in Season 1, Episode 1, Intern 2 says the same thing in response to Indie naming Scene and him as Metal's production assistants:

* InMemoriam: PlayedForLaughs. Hip-Hop comments on hos Website/FourChan had killed a friend of his sometime before the show. While talking about it to the audience, a memorial picture comes up for his friend.

* KnownOnlyByTheirNickname

--> '''Hip-Hop:'''... and making everything less funny by pointing out the reality behind our jokes.

* OddFriendship: Much of the show revolves around the developing relationships among the vastly different cast of characters. The biggest example would be Indie and Hip Hop.

* PrisonRape: While not explicitly stated, Hip Hop drops his soap and tells Metal to pick it up, which Metal remarks is a bit much.

* RousingSpeech: Dubstep delivers one to convince ROTFL:BRBTTYL:) to stay at [=My=]Music and stop everyone fighting. It works but hardly anyone understood it, even though ROTFL:BRBTTYL:) did.

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Hip Hop when he sees the members of ROTFL:BRBTTYL:) because after watching Series/{{Lost}} he's somehow convinced that all children are ghosts.
** [[spoiler: He later turned out to be lying since he used to teach a member of the group chello and was afraid his secret would get out. But he is still afraid of ghosts.]]

''[=MyMusic=]'' is a series created by Creator/TheFineBrothers. Funded by Website/YouTube's original channel initiative, the main series is released every Sunday on the [=MyMusicShow=] channel, with the company's other shows being released throughout the week. The other shows include a weekly hour-long live series, a news show and an interactive question and answer series. [[WordOfGod Benny Fine]] stated during an interview with New Media Rockstars that ''[=MyMusic=]'' "was developed first as a television property." It was later adapted for the internet, and with the help of Website/YouTube, the Fine Bros created a premium channel on which they created ''[=MyMusic=]''.

[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPcOaz3_MCk Season 2 is confirmed for summer 2013]] and is being uploaded on the Fine Bros' main channel instead of the ''My Music'' channel.

!!Tropes applying to My Music:

** When Janet Varney appears on the show, the information in the lower third reads "Favourite elements; Water, fire and earth, but growing to love air too."

** Hip-Hop claims to have six nipples, but the actual count (5 makeup ones and 2 real ones) is [[FistOfTheNorthStar seven.]]

* IRememberItLikeItWasYesterday: Idol's second date with [[ShaneDawson Chip]], complete with reminder that [[AnalogyBackfire it was in fact the previous day.]]
