What today's YouTube board reveals

Film and game marketing replaced yesterday's GTA 6 pile-up. Yeshanagula at 1 is a same-day digital single for a September 24 theatrical. Lanterns at 2 is timed to an August 30 HBO hour. Brawl Talk at 6 and Blox Fruits at 9 are Saturday developer videos.

Rod Wave falling 1 to 7 is normal post-release fade, not a takedown. Only CaseOh at 8 remains from the GTA 6 cluster even though YouTube search growth on GTA 6 is still +221.43 percent over 7 days. That gap is the board versus the keyword series.
