The most incredible collaboration with the iconic rapper and hip hop artist Drake was hosted by famous Twitch streamer Richard Tyler Blevins, aka Ninja. Back in 2018, the duo jumped into the game of Fortnite, and it forever changed the gaming landscape. Fortnite had finally made it to the big time in gaming, and this stream helped it soar to new heights. A total of 600,000 people tuned in at the same time to watch the stream.
Ninja’s popularity and viewership have been declining, but he remains one of Twitch’s most popular personalities. With such a large fan base and subscriber base, everything appears to be in good shape.
In 2018, the streamer sat down with WEIRD to answer some of the most frequently asked questions about him on the internet. Including how he met Drake and collaborated with him on their groundbreaking project.
It is, according to the now 30-year-old streamer, one of his favorite stories to tell. His chat informed him that the famous rapper had followed him on Instagram during his usual 10-hour streaming session, and the rest is history.
The duo came together after a single conversation on the social media app to host the first of its kind collaboration.
