00:00What's up, GQ? This is Phantom, and today I'm going undercover on the internet,
00:04and this is actually me. Geez.
00:08I know you don't think it is, but it's actually me.
00:13Reddit.
00:16What are Phantom's top five streams? Okay, my top five streams. Okay, first of all,
00:20nine to five stream, tough. Phantom x Biggie collab in New York City, wavy. When Curry Goat
00:26came on stream, that was one of my favorite streams of all time. It was so wholesome and
00:29funny, and it was a goat on stream. All Mugbangs. I don't have a favorite one,
00:32just all of them together. All Mugbangs is my favorite streams. And then number five, I would
00:36say the first ever VHS camera on stream, while live, having a VHS cam in New York City, that was
00:42tough. Those are my top five. ResponsibleBell4742. Bro, why does Phantom turn everything into a
00:49motivational moment? Because why not? Literally, why not? Why can't I? You know what I'm saying?
00:55Why can't you just be better than you was yesterday? Why can't I just excel and just be
00:59the best version that I can be? Why not? Why not fully just go hard at what you're doing,
01:04at your creative path? Why not just be number one if you could be number one? You want to be number
01:08two and three all the time? No, let's go for number one. Let's be the best. Let's be a boss.
01:11Let's be that. Let's be Timothy. You know what I'm saying? Let's keep it going. Don't let them
01:15doubt you. Don't let them play with you. You already know you number one. You already know
01:19what you got to do. Show them. Prove them wrong. Be the best version of you. Let's do it, baby.
01:25Imagine this being the first Phantom stream you see. That's Curry Goat on stream. We got an ice
01:30cold bathtub in the back. We got a seven foot Christmas tree. We got Black Santa in the cut.
01:34It's a lot going on. Kind of like Family Guy moments. It's a lot of random things going on
01:38at all times. Instagram. Where the fuck did... Wait, you want me to curse or not?
01:43Yeah, you first.
01:44Where the fuck did he get a Batmobile from? Okay, listen, I'm Shane Moptize, all right?
01:50This is a legendary picture, by the way, on IG. I mean, we went crazy. Over a million likes on
01:53Instagram. Shot by Vinny. I mean, wow. Movie. Listen, don't ask me how I got it. Just know that
01:58we got it, all right? Let's just keep it there, you know what I'm saying? Sometimes it's better
02:00not to ask too many questions. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? Shh, quiet.
02:06Why do New Yorkers take deli sandwiches so seriously? Okay,
02:11it's just a way of life. You know what I'm saying? I feel like I've said this multiple times,
02:14and for some reason, y'all just don't want to accept it. It's just a way of life. It's New York,
02:18you know what I'm saying? Early in the morning, get a sandwich. Midday, you could also get a
02:21sandwich. Dinner, sandwich. You know what I'm saying? It don't matter. You want to eat good,
02:25go to the corner store and get something nice, you know what I'm saying? It's just part of it.
02:32I'm not going to lie. Yo, Vinny, how many tries?
02:36Like six or seven? It took one try. It took one time. One time, it was instant. Boom,
02:40that's it, all right? You see what I'm saying? You see what's going on. Hello. Everybody spam
02:43hello in chat. All right, let's see some YouTube comments. Cool Grandpa1942. That's not a...
02:521942, you texting me? All right. Still to this day, trying to figure out how and why
02:56Fandom pulled up to GQ with this big ass fridge. First of all, why not? You know what I'm saying?
03:01Just be different, you know what I'm saying? That's like, you've never seen that before.
03:04Big old fridge, everything I like in there. It's a fridge on the go. I could bring a fridge right
03:08now if I want, so I'm not going to do it though, but I could though. Why not? X.
03:15Can we see Fandom in movies? What's next for this guy? Take my money, please. Okay,
03:19short films coming, movie roles. I can't say too much, literally. I literally legally can't say
03:25a lot. Fandom says that he wants to keep his eight kids off the internet and only the people around
03:29him should know about his private life. Bro, last time he said there was three,
03:32since when the fuck is there eight now?
03:39Homie, I'm drooling on my screen, laughing my ass off. What's your favorite food? It just
03:43depends the day. I don't really have a specific plate. Good ass food, that's it. You feel me?
03:47I just want to eat good all the time, so I don't have a favorite food. It just depends on my day.
03:51Will the Troop ever get a subathon from Random? I mean, do we need a Troopathon? You know what I'm
03:57saying? Do y'all want to see a Troopathon? We can do that. We can cook that up, you know what I'm
04:00saying? I ain't gonna lie, we might be in the works. I don't want to say too much though.
04:0330 days, who knows? Maybe even 60 days, who knows? I ain't gonna lie, I ain't gonna say too much
04:06though. Now it's time for Quora. I know what this is. Which NBA 2K is the gold, the greatest of all
04:12time, the best 2K of all time? In my personal opinion, it's 2K16. 17 is close to me too. I
04:17love 17 as well, but 16 was like River City, step back, doing, oh man, ankle breakers. It was just
04:25fun. It was just chain nuts. It was simple, simple sales, you know? Why is my son constantly
04:30saying something about a skibbity-gat phantom sex? What does it mean? It means your son is
04:35in tune, updated with the world. He knows what's going on. See, you on the other hand,
04:40I have a problem with you. You don't know what's going on and your son does, okay? I need you to
04:44have that conversation with him. Take him outside because he knows this because he's online all
04:47damn day and it's because he hears us talking and shit like that. It's all your shit.
04:52Where do I go for the best Dominican food? In New York City, I would say anywhere in the Bronx
04:56or Brooklyn, or even Spanish Harlem. It don't really matter. I don't have a specific restaurant
05:00that you need to go to. Just go around, just try shit. Stop being scary, bro. Just go around and
05:04try shit.
05:07Phantom needs to open his own deli in New York City. That place would be so lit. Food would be
05:11bossing. I'm glad you know that. Facts. It would be amazing. I always wanted to have a deli in New
05:16York. It'd be like the Phantom special, the nine o'clock special, you know what I'm saying?
05:19Mix and match things. Chips, get the combo. You can get these three things together. You might
05:23get a discount. In my store, we're not doing $12 chopped cheese. We're doing $5 chopped cheese.
05:28I don't even care if we profit or not. We won't keep it, you know what I'm saying, where the hood
05:31speaks. We won't keep it where, you know what I'm saying, where the hood speaks at. But I be
05:34wavy. I hope that if I do do that, you pull up and, you know what I'm saying, get you a chopped
05:38cheese and a little bag, you know what I'm saying, and enjoy your time. It's time for Wikipedia.
05:44Phantom began streaming on Twitch in November of 2016 and made his YouTube channel Just Phantom
05:48in May of 2017. My first YouTube channel was not in 2017 though. It was like 2013. It was called
05:54PlayStation Rob. That was my first official name. And he posted his first video in February of 2019.
05:59He streamed NBA 2K and later expanded to IRL vlogs, which often drew upon his experiences
06:04in New York. Facts. I did New York story times. I did New York slang. I just explained it to New
06:10York, not just New Yorkers, just people outside of New York, how New Yorkers talk. It was dope.
06:14It went viral in a lot of places and people loved it. We didn't really have a New York content
06:17creator. I was one of the first ever to actually take it there in terms of what part of New York
06:22I'm from, which is the Bronx, and just making it long-form content. It was dope.
06:28If A&P members were superheroes, who would they be? Okay. This is a little tough. Chris would be
06:34the Riddler. You know what I'm saying? Because I don't know what's going on at the time. I think
06:39Davis would be Green Lantern for some reason. I don't know. He is Green Lantern. Or maybe even
06:43Static Shock. AJ would be Magneto. Yeah, he'd be Magneto. I feel like Duke would be Black Panther.
06:50Facts. Kyle would be Ant-Man. Very small man. Very small man. Ant-Man, yes. And then me,
06:58I would be Thanos. What are the various streaming communities? Okay. First of all,
07:03we got multiple streaming platforms. You got Twitch, Rumble, Kik, YouTube as well. But in
07:08terms of comms, which is communities, you got WNL, which is what I'm a part of. You got the
07:12Poggers side, which is super cool too. Then you have niche streamers who do ASMR. You got people
07:18that just paint all day. The Bob Rosses and stuff of the world. I don't know. Streamers are just so
07:22vast and big. There's a streamer for everybody. IG. FlexLoco823. How big is the crib? Y'all need
07:30to play Manhunt in that hole or Hide and Seek. Matter of fact, you know what's crazy? We even
07:34did paintball before in that crib. You know what I'm saying? We got a basketball court in the
07:37backyard. We went and did whole full-blown tournaments. We almost burnt the house down
07:41three times on three different occasions. The one time we fake burned it down with Mr. Beast
07:44after Mr. Beast. We had a horse in the house. Nicki came to the house one time. That was dope.
07:49We had a pool, like literally a real pool inside the house. You know what I'm saying?
07:54Oh, one time I had a dirt bike. I rode a dirt bike inside the house. That was cool.
07:57Oh, ATV as well too. John Cena, you can't see me. He was in the house. I taxed him too. Don't
08:02forget that. Please don't forget that. Hide and Seek is kind of hard because sometimes it takes
08:06a long time to catch somebody. I don't know. Sometimes I'm here. I can't be the only one
08:10thinking that Fendham is an underrated style icon. I just like pieces and garments. Throwing
08:14that on. You know what I'm saying? Putting that shit on, PTSR. Fashion is dope. Clothing is cool.
08:19I feel like what you throw on can speak for you without you talking. You know what I'm saying?
08:22Capturing a moment in time with pictures, fire. Put those two together, Instagram, social media.
08:28It's just showing to the world what we can do. We're from New York, so we want to throw it on.
08:32Every day is a different vibe. Sometimes I want to wear all black. Sometimes I want to be more
08:35brighter colors. Sometimes I want to go classy. You know what I'm saying? Give it that. You know
08:38what I'm saying? That poppy chulo shampoo. It depends. It just depends on my vibe. The vibe
08:42is everything. Tick tock. Yo, I'm visiting New York City for the first time. What should I do
08:47and what should I not do? Go visit a whole bunch of views. The Edge. Shout out to the Pirate State
08:52Building. I've been there like two, three times already and it's dope. Go there. Shit, Satchel
08:56Liberty. I'm going to give you all the tourist spots, all right? The Junction in Brooklyn.
08:59Yankee Stadium. You know what I'm saying? Go to Yankee Stadium and stay within a one block radius.
09:03If you go past that, whatever happens after that is on you, all right? If you want to go to Staten
09:09Island, I won't judge you. Yo, bro, there's nothing in Staten Island. What's over there?
09:13Sopranos. Why is Davis called the group leader? I don't know. I'm not going to lie. We voted him in
09:22a while ago. I don't know. I think he needs to step down already. I don't remember why we voted
09:27for him, but we did. He's the group leader. He leads the group. I don't know what he does, bro.
09:33Shout out to Davis.
09:41People like the music. People like the videos. Everybody likes the A&P Cyphers. The last one
09:44we did with Kevin Hart was in it too. It was dope. Good energy. Had a 90s flow,
09:47pro era. Shout out to Joey Badison. We should start rapping. You know what I'm saying? You
09:51should start listening. No cap. If you don't have A$AP on it, A$AP Rocky, that'd be tough.
09:55What would it take for A&P to add a new member? A&P is never adding a... Well,
09:59I don't want to say never, but right now we're not looking for no new members.
10:03So please stop giving me and telling me, please make me the seventh member,
10:06because it's not going to happen. Okay. That's it. I'm logging off. Appreciate y'all. That was
10:10actually me answering these questions and love y'all. See y'all later. Deuces.
