Matt Watson was born in Charleston, South Carolina on February 5th, 1996 (currently 27). Watson started his YouTube career in early 2008, with his channel formatt24. He made comedic skit videos with his friends, and occasionally a song parody. In college, Watson and his friends began a new channel, Kids w/ Problems. This channel featured comedic skits, akin to his older content. In 2014, Watson moved to Los Angeles. He would then join Cyndago, a popular sketch/music comedy show starring Daniel Kyre and Ryan Magee. The channel had several cameos from other famous YouTubers such as Markiplier and Danny Sexbang (of Ninja Sex Party). From then on he would continue to make sketches until Daniel Kyre's death in 2015. The channel was closed after Kyre's death, with Watson and Magee forming a new lets play channel, SuperMega. The channel gained popularity after collaborating with another lets play channel, GameGrumps. However, in 2019, they would leave to pursue their own path. In November of 2019, Watson put out No Nut November, quickly gaining a million views, and has over 3.3 million now (as of January, 2021). He later put out Covid-19 Type Beat in May of 2020. Later that year in August, Watson would tease an EP, titled OUCH!. Watson performed, mixed, and mastered the album in his room during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was released on September 4th, 2020.
