Black creators need to curate and promote Twitch to its viewership
A big problem is too many black creators either don't know about, or feel like they're above using Twitch. I've seen YouTube's and podcasters reaction to moving to Twitch and so many times it's
like many of the replies in this threadTwitch is largely a place where nikkas section off into their own shyt and don't care about much else besides that
Black creators gotta cultivate an audience or leverage the audience they already have into using the platform

If kevin samuels had sense he would be simulcasting on youtube, twitch and parker.
All streams ate revenue streams to be exploited.
Hell he could do live broadcasts on twitch package thag shyt up and post on youtube and get revenue off those views for work he already did on twitch.

Some of the young Black streamers getting numbers tho and their crowd is almost all Black too
Now ofc it's going to be less because there are less Black people, but they're making good money off of it

Kids are giving their pocket money to these dudes or stealing their parent's credit cards and adults are giving their own money.
Can you imagine giving money to some weirdo just to watch him play a dumb ass game.
This shyt is digital heroin.

The irony is Kevin has a lot of young followers he could clean the fukk up on Twitch
It's not black peoples' fault. Black people on that platform but the platform gives no service to them. the highest grass roots black streamer maybe get 500 people watching on a good day, when they get placed front page, 3/10x as much access.

I tried to tell those two, black people are trying it's like the tech industry it's hard for us to get into streaming because most of the views can't relate to us... And the ones they listed build their following on other platforms before moving to twitch.

Most of the black streamers I know about are in the fighting game community and unfortunately they don't stream that often. There's one brother that I know named TasteySteve, he the hype Bruh in the White Power Ranger in the hood video on YouTube. I think he's funny af and genuinely a good dude but he doesn't stream much

You could always c00n like some KSI characterIt's hard as a black man or woman to get into the streaming game.. most of the popular ones were either around from the early days or are on someshyt... You earn your money from cacs kids and males and most of them can't relate to a black man like they can to someone that is their color.
No wonder Summit forever fukked up on his streams. Dude has enough to game and smoke that loud while kicking back in the gaming chair.
Yes it is, you have to promote your shyt.
That means going on other people's platforms to get your name out, to people outside of your current audience.
If you want fame and attention you have to put just as much work into that as into the product itself.
