Kyle Broflovski has purchased video games to play with his brother
Ike. However, Ike is more interested in
PewDiePie's
Let's Play videos, much to Kyle's disdain. The popularity of LP is noticed by
Eric Cartman, who begins his own commentaries on his classmates. Ike has subscribed to Cartman's CartmanBrah channel, which annoys Kyle. Kyle later invites Ike's friends over to play video games, but they all watch Let's Plays in Ike's bedroom. The children dismiss Kyle, along with
Stan Marsh, as out-of-touch "grandpas", and Kyle perceives his living room to be "dying".
Randy Marsh learns of an upcoming benefit concert that will feature a roster of popular musicians, including his secret identity,
Lorde. Randy is reluctant to perform due to his reliance on
pitch correction software, but his producer reminds Randy that he needs the money due to his son Stan's spending on freemium gaming. Randy relents when his daughter,
Shelley, expresses a desire to see Lorde perform, unaware of the truth. At the concert, Randy has second thoughts, but his producer insists that the audience does not care about the performance, telling Randy to "just go out there and pump your hips and rub your clit." Randy notices
Iggy Azalea performing with a hologram of
Michael Jackson and feels like something is "lost". When Randy's performance begins, his off-key singing and poor live performance disillusion the audience. Randy accidentally sets the Michael Jackson hologram free and then rubs his groin in an attempt to win the audience back, but this only further enrages them and later causes Shelley to tear down her Lorde poster. Randy calls his producer, who says that fame has never been about music, but the publicity generated by performers' antics, Randy being a recent example. The Jackson hologram boards a bus heading toward South Park, as he needs to "take care of some important business". The Syntech Hologram Company, in response, activates a
Tupac Shakur hologram to pursue Jackson. Randy again contacts his producer, resolving to publicly reveal his identity as Lorde. The producer responds that artists are merely exploited to generate revenue, and that a hologram of Lorde will appear on
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, exposing her anus to create more publicity. Seeing Randy as an obstacle to this plan, the producer's henchmen attempt to restrain Randy, who escapes. When Randy informs his wife Sharon of the plan, she is incredulous that she slept with a hologram, which is revealed to be Tupac. Meanwhile, Randy's producer conspires with Cartman to install him as the leader in an upcoming social media revolution involving holograms. ==Production==
