"Very soon": IShowSpeed says the upcoming Africa tour will be "hell of a lot"

Initially going viral for his gaming content, IShowSpeed has seen a huge rise in popularity over the last couple of years. He is also fairly athletic and is obsessed with soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo, helping him connect with fans of the sport from around the world. In fact, his international travel streams started with him visiting other countries in Europe and Asia to watch soccer matches.

While he has been on solo country tours, IRL streaming from the streets of India and Brazil before, his first major international stint was when he traveled across numerous countries in Europe earlier this year during the Euros in Germany. While he attended a couple of matches in the tournament, he spent most of his summer IRL streaming from countries like Albania, Italy, and Norway.

IShowSpeed's more recent stream was in Southeast Asia, where he visited several countries, including Singapore, Indonesia, and Thailand within a span of a few days. Naturally, African fans waiting to see him will be delighted to learn that he has officially confirmed plans to come to the continent "very soon."

In a clip that has since gone viral, IShowSpeed states:

"Speed is the Africa tour coming soon? Yes, we are just, we're just, yes. The Africa tour is coming very soon actually. And that's going to be one hell of a tour, chat."

The YouTube streamer also noted that the stream would probably be a month-long one, considering the size of Africa:

"We are going to probably be in Africa for like a month. A full month. Because Africa is so big, we have to travel. It's going to be a lot."

IShowSpeed, who is currently nominated for Streamer of the Year at the Streamer Awards 2024, did not release further information about the possible Africa stream. So, fans will need to wait for the YouTuber's announcement which according to him should come sooner rather than later.
