Adin David Ross was born on October 11, 2000, in Boca Raton, Florida. He rose to prominence in the late 2010s, specifically starting his streaming journey in 2018. Ross initially gained massive popularity within the NBA 2K community, famously collaborating with Bronny James. This exposure propelled him into the mainstream, where he transitioned into variety streaming, 'Just Chatting,' and high-stakes gambling content. His career has been marked by significant platform shifts; after becoming one of Twitch's most-followed creators, he faced a permanent ban in 2023, leading to a landmark deal with the streaming service Kick. Although his Twitch ban was eventually lifted in early 2025, he maintained Kick as his primary broadcasting home. By 2026, Ross remains a polarizing figure in internet culture, often embroiled in high-profile feuds with music industry giants. Despite various controversies and the loss of several brand partnerships over the years, he continues to command a massive, loyal audience, solidifying his status as a central, albeit controversial, titan of the live-streaming era.
