Kanel Joseph Pressed a Streamer Walking Around in Blackface as IShowSpeed and Told Him to Make Better Content

Just Staff

Kanel Joseph pressed a streamer who was walking around cosplaying IShowSpeed in blackface and told him to make better content. The clip has pulled more than 866,000 views in under a day.

The cosplay is Speed’s signature look, the Portugal number 7 jersey, done with dark face makeup. That is the whole problem, and it is why the clip took off the way it did. The other streamer is not a known name, and he has not been identified.

Kanel is a Kick streamer who already had a viral run this fall. In October he knocked down a streamer at Ice Poseidon’s Safe Zone event in Austin after the man kept calling him the N word on camera, and that clip did numbers for a week.

Speed himself has not said anything about this one. The clip is still climbing.
