IShowSpeed livestream in Jamaica amasses over 2.8 million views

KINGSTON, Jamaica — American streamer IShowSpeed’s livestream from Kingston, Jamaica on Friday amassed more than 2.8 million views, with a peak of 194,805 live viewers.

The broadcast also generated 696,349 live chat messages and brought in 34,692 new subscribers.

His cameraman shared the numbers via X on Friday, shortly after the stream, with the caption: “Good stream”.

As part of the Jamaican leg of his Caribbean tour, the streamer visited several iconic locations across Kingston, including Emancipation Park, the Bob Marley Museum, Devon House, and the National Stadium.

The tour kicked off at Emancipation Park with a history session led by former Miss Jamaica Universe Yendi Phillipps. Known simply as “Speed”, the streamer received a brief lesson on Jamaica’s national heroes and took part in a traditional Kumina dance alongside a group of local students.

Speed also engaged with Culture Minister Olivia Grange and prominent Jamaican artists such as Jesse Royal, Sean Paul, Beenie Man, Shenseea, Ding Dong, Naomi Cowan and Gyptian, further connecting with the island’s vibrant music and culture.
