Cuffem (born April 30, 2002) is an American internet personality, online streamer, and rapper. He gained recognition through his participation in the streaming community for streaming himself playing video games, such as games in the NBA 2K franchise and Grand Theft Auto V. Cuffem is also known for songwriting and rapping and has uploaded songs on platforms like YouTube and Spotify. In addition, he is also known for being close to Adin Ross and has frequently collaborated with him.
In early 2023, Cuffem and other live streamers would shift from Twitch to a then-new live-streaming platform called Kick due to the streaming service having remunerative financial offers, and now primarily streams there.
Streaming career
Twitch (2018–2023)
Cuffem would start his streaming career on Twitch, where he created his channel on October 7, 2018.[4] He would start his first-ever stream in 2019, which consisted of him playing NBA 2K19. Over time in 2020, he wouldn't stream but play with an online friend named Cheesur on NBA 2K who did stream. Sometimes, while playing with Cheesur while he streamed, Cheesur's live chat would compliment Cuffem on his humor, his professionalism at NBA 2K; and convince him to stream. Due to that, he began streaming himself playing the game and came across another streamer named Adin Ross who he would often collaborate with. Months later going into 2021, he would move on to streaming himself in the "Just Chatting" category of Twitch, which included him playing Grand Theft Auto Roleplay which was gaining popularity among streamers at the time, and participating in "E-Date's" which were a series of dating competitions hosted online on Discord.[5]
In early 2023, Cuffem and other streamers like Trainwreckstv and Adin Ross decided to switch to a new live streaming platform called Kick. The reasons that caused some streamers like Cuffem to switch from Twitch to Kick were due to the platform having a generous revenue split, more flexible content guidelines, and its ability for streamers to host gambling content. Before switching to Kick, he would average about 2,000 live viewers while streaming on Twitch.[6][7]
Kick (2023–present)
During early 2023, around the same time that Cuffem started to stream on Kick, he would get into a heated online altercation with Twitch streamer HasanAbi due to Hasan having a conflict with his close friend Adin Ross as a result of Ross falsely copyrighting YouTube videos and spreading misinformation about who the person he falsely copyrighted is. While in a live stream, Cuffem stated that he was going to harm Hasan due to his online conflict with Ross.[8][9]
On October 3, 2023, during a livestream at a house party hosted by Heelmike; Cuffem, and other individuals, would get into a physical fight with him due to rising tensions between them earlier in the stream. As a result, Heelmike and one other streamer were temporarily suspended off Kick.[10]
In early March 2024, Cuffem went viral on social media after a clip from a livestream showed him getting matched with two women on the Monkey app. Seconds later, one of the women would call him "the ugliest thing in the world." Soon after the incident, he would click off Monkey and end his whole stream without acknowledging his live audience. As a result, the video would be shared on social media, with users posting mixed reactions on Twitter stemming from bullying to showing empathy.[11]
In August 2024, Cuffem along with Adin Ross, announced that they would be moving to Toronto, Canada, to do different sorts of content, including playing the then-new released NBA 2K game, NBA 2K25.[12]

Cuffem's music is uploaded on platforms like YouTube and Spotify, with all of his songs made into music videos.[6]
