Benny Soliven

Benny Soliven's channel feels like hanging out with the funniest guy in Stockton — because he is from Stockton, born January 27, 1993 (NetWorthSpot). Pranks, challenges, family vlogs, and a genuine second act as a rapper: his 'Put You On' video, uploaded February 2020, passed 11 million views (TheFamousBirthdays), and the Matt Ox diss parody 'Overwhelming' became his most-watched upload ever.

Off-camera he's a family man — partner Alondra Ortiz, son Benny Legend born June 2021 — and that warmth is all over the vlogs.[modifier]

Born and raised in Stockton, California, to separated parents — 'parents separated my whole life, but I did have both of my parents in my life,' as he put it in an interview — he lived primarily with his strict, protective mother and calls himself very sheltered as a kid. At 15 he was arrested for graffiti, a story he tells openly as part of local youth culture.

The channel launched in March 2015 with '305 squad for a double' — squats, not skits — followed in April by the gloriously confident 'Your New Favorite YouTuber!' Unpolished, ambitious, and the start of everything.[modifier]

Challenge-and-prank consistency built the base, friends and family always in frame. Then music: 'Put You On' (February 2020) broke 11 million views and made Benny a rapper, not just a vlogger who raps (PicoVlog). The 'Overwhelming' Matt Ox diss parody went further still as his biggest video ever.

2021 added an acting detour — the Dhar Mann novela 'Evil Boss mistreats his Worker' (12M views) — and fatherhood. Recent uploads keep the formula fresh: viral street foods in Mexico, 24 hours living in a Tesla. The Aguilars collabs remain a staple.[modifier]

Casual, approachable, friend-group funny — production polish nowhere near the point. The pranks land because the warmth is real: grandma cameos, girlfriend bits, dad life. Fans don't stan Benny; they hang out with him.[modifier]

Benny's fans don't need a name — they're the cousins at the cookout, liking, commenting, and quoting pranks back at him. No billboards, no charity drives, just young adults and teens who treat the vlogs like group-chat episodes. The iFANN Global Fame Engine ranks him #40,385 globally and #30,188 in his category as of October 19, 2026, outside the published Top lists. Live iFAMOUS YouTube figures: 1,160,000 subscribers and 216,942,166 total views as of October 18, 2026.[modifier]
