While talking to Adin Ross, an interviewer asked if Adin Ross believed that he does not get enough "credit" for pushing IShowSpeed into the limelight during his early days:

"He's absolutely smashed it, going viral every stream. Do you sort of feel that sometimes for Speed, you don't get that credit you deserve for sort of, kind of pushing him back in the day when he wasn't as well known, and now he's big?"

To this, Adin Ross responded:

"Not at all, man. Everyone's where they're at in life, and you can't question it. You gotta look, like God has purpose for everyone. God has something for everyone. Speed is the biggest streamer ever. I don't think anyone... I was having an argument, I think he's the biggest influence in the world."
