In 2011, Chantarangsu was fired from his job at a California Pizza Kitchen in Long Beach for tweeting that their new uniforms were "lame".[5] [9] As a child, he developed a business plan modeled after Will Smith , which he called the "Fresh Prince Format"; the plan outlined three career objectives: get a record deal, a television show, and a movie deal.[6]
YouTube [ edit ]
His former stage name, Timothy DeLaGhetto, was inspired by an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air .[10]
Chantarangsu's main YouTube channel had over 4.2 million subscribers and over 895 million video views as of March 31, 2024[update] .[11] It features original skits , parodies, rants , and a series called Dear DeLaGhetto .[12]

His style channel, also known as The Bakery, has over 234,000 subscribers and over 16 million video views. The channel is composed of his fit-of-the-day videos, clothing collections and style videos and interviews with fellow sneaker fans called "Kickin' It".[15] One of his newest video ventures includes an animated web series named Powerhouse in which he plays himself.[16]
In 2014, Chantarangsu's YouTube Channel was listed on New Media Rockstars Top 100 Channels, ranked at #64.[17]
Chantarangsu has participated in two episodes of Epic Rap Battles of History , as Kim Jong-Il in Season 1 in 2011 and as Sun Tzu in Season 4 in 2015.
Chantarangsu began regularly uploading his dating and relationship podcast, No Chaser , onto his main YouTube channel and other podcasting platforms in February 2019. His regular co-hosts include 97.7 KWIN host Nikki Blades and YouTuber Ricky Shucks.[18]
He co-hosts the food show Send Foodz with fellow YouTuber David So . The show was picked up by Thrillist shortly after its initial debut on Chantarangsu's channel and airs every other Thursday.[19]
