YouTube streamer Darren "IShowSpeed" is no stranger to opening his wallet wide for those he holds in high regard. During his recent IRL stream in Miami, he stumbled upon an elderly street artist who offered to sketch Darren with his beloved American shepherd dog for $30; however, impressed by the art, he went the extra mile and forked over a whopping $1000 as a token of appreciation.
But, true to the nature of an IShowSpeed stream, there had to be a hiccup. Despite Darren's generosity, he inadvertently leaked the old man's phone number on the live stream. This prompted viewers to call him, much to the artist's confusion.

However, in a regrettable slip of the tongue, the streamer accidentally revealed the elderly artist's contact details live on stream. This allowed viewers to easily reach out to him, causing unforeseen complications for the artist.
The streamer reacted to this by stating:
IShowSpeed's IRL stream yesterday was not without its share of peculiar moments. For those unfamiliar, the streamer has named his dog "Ni**a."
Unfortunately, during yesterday's stream, after revealing the dog's name to a stranger, the individual unknowingly uttered the N-word live on stream, leading to an uncomfortable situation.
