A TikToker claimed there is a new UK 'influencer voice'- and many have accused GK Barry of having it. English singer-songwriter Cassy Brooking, from Chelmsford, who is known by her stage name Cassyette, took to her TikTok to question the new influencer inflection.
In a video, which got over 880,000 views, the Disease singer said: 'No shade am I missing a trick?'. In the clip she went onto say: 'Serious question is it just me or is there this new influencer voice, that English influencers specifically use.'. Showcasing the style of voice she's been noticing online, Cassyette started speaking slowly, in short sentences.
She made sure to drag out certain syllables and took exaggerated pauses between each word. She claimed influencers are 'going up' at the end of every sentence, as if each statement is a question. She added: 'It sounds like I'm asking you a question, which might be really confusing, but I'm actually not, I'm just going up at the end of every sentence. Like what? what is this voice?'.

One person wrote: 'It irritates me so much.' Another added: 'It's they're •making a list... •but it's not really a list... •it's just neverending bullet points...'. Someone else said: 'It's called Uptalk and actually a very common selling technique. I remember an old director teaching me it. It makes you feel more engaged with the speaker.'.
