Rashed is not the only child in his family – he has the older brothers, Abdulla Saif and Mayed Saif. However, he is the most popular rich kid in his family. The reason of Rashed’s popularity is that despite his parents being incredibly wealthy and able to afford everything, he did not want to be famous just for their money. He decided to start making videos on YouTube, and this is how he gained his own fans, who watch and love his productions.
The growth and development of Rashed Belhasa’s YouTube channel
Originally, the thing that inspired Rashed’s YouTube career was the sneakers. He once saw how much people liked the trendy limited edition sneakers of his older brother, and got influenced. He began ordering sneakers from all over the world, and eventually, he created his own sneakers collection, where he had many different types of these shoes. Rashed decided to show his collection on the Internet, and he posted a video, where he proudly showcased all the sneakers that he had.
The video called “Legendary Sneakers Collection” was posted on November 3rd, 2015. At the time, Rashed was only 13 years old, and he did not expect his little video to gain such a huge popularity. The demonstration of his sneakers gained him about 4,000 new subscribers. In the next few days, the numbers blew up, and Rashed’s channel, which he named “Money Kicks”, reached the proud mark of 50,000 subscribers.
Just a few weeks later, the young boy posted a video, which would later become a breakthrough and bring him even bigger popularity among the worldwide audiences. In this video, he was showing the famous rapper Young Thug his collection of sneakers. People were in total awe after watching young Rashed proudly demonstrating the collection to the rapper, and this is how his channel became super-popular, and the boy unexpectedly for himself became an internet sensation. In the next couple of months, Rashed’s fame came to him in larger quantities.
