Kingsley, 27, known for his comical rants and biting pop culture commentary, counts roughly 3 million subscribers. He formerly hosted a Defy Media-produced talk show called Drama King, as well as a podcast called Overexposed. Twenty three-year-old Stammer, meanwhile, who hails from Japan, counts more than 5 million subscribers across two channels and has partnered with the likes of Hollister and Crest, while The Funk Bros have amassed more than 3.8 million subscribers in just two years.

At the same time, Awesomeness tells Tubefilter
