I've never seen this before, what does "hyped" mean?

Apologies if I'm being stupid, but I've just seen this little symbol for the first time. It's a shooting start icon with the word "hyped" next to it under a video. I assume it just means it's being watched a lot. But it was the only video in the entire recommended column. Any ideas?

No bad reviews yet.

Only been doing Uber for 4 weeks (Liverpool, UK)

I've had 1 rider throw up, 3 get arsey about adding stops in the app, about 5 fall asleep and about 1 in 10 riders are casual racists ("Oh finally a British Uber driver")

Only 3 airport jobs. I don't tend to turn off my own music. It's a mix of rock, pop rock and country and most don't mind. I can work out pretty quickly, within 20 seconds or so if a rider is a talker or not.

The only filter I use is turning off cash jobs. I rarely work past 2am. When I say I've only been doing Uber for a few weeks, grumpy passengers tend to soften a little bit.

Not sure how much longer I can use the "I just started" line, but at the moment, even after a big fallout in Chester last night, stopping the ride and having all 4 passengers get out, still haven't had anything less than 5 stars.

This isn't me trying to be big headed, I'm just wondering how lucky I am? Or if I'm just being TOO nice. I average around £24/h driving time with 80% acceptance rate. Done 433 trips in total.

Now I've said this, I'll probably start getting bad ratings 😆
