In early 2020 IShowSpeed started uploading a bunch of NBA 2K streams and this time his channel took off. By the middle of June 2020, he was averaging around 150 subscribers weekly and in no time he was up to 1000 new subscribers a week.

He also released his debut album called ‘What Else Ishow Speed’. He gained more recognition after he moved to LA with popular Twitch streamer Adin Ross.
Speed’s channel now features a lot of music videos that have got over 10 million views and one of his videos ‘Shake’ got a whopping 126 million views. His channel is one of the fastest growing channels in the world.
