After blowing off some steam in Asia, he went back to work, and after around a year, when his YouTube income became stable, he quit his job to focus on making videos and hosting podcasts as an all-time job.

He even tried out making music, and it proved to be very well: “I was making fun of Jake Paul’s song in a video two years ago. And I was like, ‘I think I can make a better song than this.’ It was kind of like a challenge. So, I made this awful beat and I brought Noel over to rap over it. So, we made this really stupid song. And it wasn’t better than Jake’s song. But it was the first beat I made and it was really cool. I always wanted to make music from scratch. And I just got more and more into it. It’s something that I’ve been pursuing, in the background, for a while.”
