Popular internet personality and streamer IShowSpeed has embarked on one of his most ambitious projects to date: a massive 28-day, real-life (IRL) tour across the African continent. Dubbed 'Speed Does Africa', the tour promises to be one of the largest creator-led travel livestreams ever attempted.

According to the official tour trailer and reports, the countries on the itinerary include:
- Algeria
- Angola
- Benin
- Botswana
- Egypt
- Eswatini
- Ethiopia
- Ghana
- Ivory Coast
- Kenya
- Liberia
- Morocco
- Mozambique
- Namibia
- Nigeria
- Rwanda
- Senegal
- South Africa
- Zambia
- Zimbabwe
While the exact order might see adjustments due to travel logistics, this list has been consistently confirmed.
Viral Start and Fan Engagement in Angola
The tour kicked off with Angola as the first stop, and it immediately generated viral moments that highlighted the unique nature of the project. True to his interactive style, Speed's streams have been heavily focused on fan engagement and cultural immersion.
In a memorable instance during his Angola visit, a fan recreated Speed's iconic 'my mom is kinda homeless' meme by drawing the facial features on sand. The streamer was visibly surprised and amused, laughing with his viewers and questioning if the drawing actually resembled him. This moment underscored how his online persona and inside jokes have found resonance across the globe.
What Viewers Can Expect Going Forward
Backed by major sponsors and a structured schedule, the 'Speed Does Africa' tour is positioned as a landmark event in digital content creation. The stream promises to deliver a mix of unpredictable moments, football-related content—a known passion of the streamer—and raw, unfiltered experiences of diverse African cultures.
With the tour just beginning, viewers can anticipate a near month-long series of daily streams filled with spontaneous interactions, potential celebrity or footballer cameos, and the unique charm that defines IShowSpeed's content. If the initial days in Angola are any indication, the journey across the continent is set to produce a continuous stream of engaging and shareable content for his massive online following.
