Who is Kindly Keyin?
Kindly Keyin was born on the 14th September 1987, in California USA, of part-Irish descent. He is now a 31 year-old YouTuber, and an internet star. Kindly Keyin became famous for his family friendly videos that often feature comedic gaming related content. His videos combine comedy and educational content, and are intended mainly for younger audiences. He uploaded his first video in 2016, and has since become one of the most popular gamers on the platform.
Start on YouTube
Speaking in an interview about the inspiration for starting his YouTube channel, Kindly said that as a kid growing up in California he fell in love with video production. He and his friends would often go skateboarding, and would record videos of themselves which he later edited. In addition, he enjoyed video games as soon as he was introduced to SEGA and Nintendo gaming consoles. He initially saw YouTube as a perfect platform where he could combine his two passions.
Kindly also shared with his fans that the first game he fell in love with was “Mega Man X” – he was only eight years old when his parents bought him the game, which remains one of his favorite games to this day. As a matter of fact, the first video he uploaded on his channel was actually a gameplay video of that game, entitled “Jumpin’ and Shootin’ – Let’s Play Mega Man X Episode 1”. However, even though Kindly enthusiastically interacts with his fans which extend across several age groups, he is not keen on sharing many other details about his personal life. Therefore, there is a lack of information which can be found surrounding his life prior to his YouTube days.
Rise to Prominence on YouTube
Even though he uploaded his first video on YouTube only three years ago, Kindly Keyin managed to secure himself as one of the YouTube icons, and most popular family-friendly gaming content creators in the world. Being an avid fan of both PC and console games, Kindly was always certain about what kind of content he wanted to create and upload onto his channel. His channel now features gameplay videos of more than 100 games, some of the most popular being “Mario Kart”, “Hello Neighbors”, “Minecraft” and “Mega Man X”.
When his channel was still in its early days, Kindly noticed that there was a lack of video gaming channels which offered family friendly content, suitable for all ages; luckily, it was exactly the type of content he enjoyed creating the most. Speaking about his channel, Kindly stated that his main goal was to create a fun and friendly environment, and to put a strong emphasis on “edutainment” games – those that combine learning with fun game-like activities, such as math quizzes, memory tests etc. As his popularity rose, Kindly was able to leave his job of 12 years, and commit fully to creating videos on YouTube.
Social Media
Keyin’s official YouTube channel has garnered more than 1.4 million subscribers over the last three years, and has amassed more than 460 million views, with several of his videos hitting the multi-million views mark. Considering the fact that he has only been active on YouTube for the past three years, his quick rise in popularity is all the more impressive. Kindly is also known for his friendly online persona and his interaction with his fans. Besides YouTube, he also owns an Instagram account with nearly 4000 followers, a Twitter account with more than 2000 followers, and a profile on Facebook as well.
Personal Life
Regarding his personal life, Kindly Keyin is married and has a son named Seth. Even though he’s posted several pictures with his wife on Instagram, we do not know her name or profession. On the other hand, Seth is often featured in his father’s videos – the duo often play various edutainment games together. Keyin has stated that the best thing about being a full-time YouTuber is that he is able to spend most of his time with his family, which he wasn’t able to do while working his regular job.
