About FIVEblackgUys

FIVEblackguys is an English-language YouTube collaboration channel created in 2008. Its description says it is a channel where five Black men make entertaining videos and challenges, billed as the first Black male collaboration channel on YouTube. Videos follow a weekly topic and challenge format, with parody sketches and opinion pieces such as a discussion of Tyler Perry's work.

The channel has about 2,560 subscribers, 659 videos and roughly 1.1 million lifetime views. The median video draws about 470 views and runs around four and a half minutes. The last upload was in October 2012, so there is no current posting pace. Starbooked estimates audience demographics only; they are not measured data.

No sponsorships or affiliate links appear in the dossier. Using Starbooked's rate rule of $20 to $35 per 1,000 median views, the calculation falls below the minimum, so a sponsored video is listed at $150 to $250. That is a CPM of $20 to $35, against $10 to $30 typical for paid ads. Brands should treat this as an archive channel, not an active booking.
