What Actually Happened To The Vibe Crew..??
Is Vibe crew still a thing? Did the vibe crew end? What’s going on with Vibe Crew? What happened to the Vibe Crew..? All the fans are filled with these questions and yet no one to answer. Don’t worry, I’ll put you out of your misery- Though there has never been any official announcement, the vibe crew has faded out. They haven’t met together for so long..and have not posted anything recently. Their last post on Instagram is on 9 April 2021. Since many of the members had a lot going on in their personal lives, with all their shows, movies, and events, they couldn’t take responsibility for the group. Moreover, due to a large number of members, it was becoming too difficult to handle and organize. As a result, the group gradually faded, leaving everyone, including their members, in doubt about their future. So technically, the group hasn’t split but just moved on with their lives, with many of them still being in contact with each other and some making their way into Hollywood. Elliana, when asked about the group, said,” I don’t know, we haven’t met up in two months; I have no idea if it’s still a thing. If it is, I guess I’m technically in it, but it is just like fading out… there isn’t a vibe crew anymore.” There you go, someone officially said it, well unofficially, but that’s the end of it. No one knows if any change or development will occur in the future, but if it does, you know where to look.. Yesss…!! Right here, I know.. you are my favorite too..!!!
Wrapping Up
How easily people vibed with the Vibe crew is no mystery. The group had over 2,40,000 followers on TikTok in such a short period. They succeeded in almost everything, whether it was a matter of a viral dance, competing in challenge videos, or making trendy content. From normal audience to… Singers and directors, everyone became interested in these young talents. They indeed went through a fantastic journey, and we loved every part of it. Though it’s unofficially over, we still hope for a reunion or rejuvenation with the different cast. Let’s wait and watch.
