On August 19, Nigerian TikTok sensation Habeeb Hamzat, known as Peller, joined forces with Michael Babatunde Adeyinka, better known as DJ Tunez, for a YouTube livestream that quickly captured global attention.
Streaming live at 5 p.m. WAT on Peller’s official channel, the broadcast combined Afrobeats music, playful banter, and unscripted viral moments that drew thousands of viewers and generated lively discussion across social media.
At just 19, Peller has become one of Nigeria’s fastest-rising content creators, previously holding Africa’s most-viewed TikTok livestream record with 260,000 concurrent viewers.

Peller also joked about renting a private jet for ₦15 million to convince Wizkid to appear on a livestream, only to laugh off the idea, citing “tax issues with Lagos State.”
The livestream was more than comedy it also spotlighted DJ Tunez’s latest single, “One Condition,” featuring Wizkid and Fola. During the session, the track climbed to No. 1 on Apple Music Nigeria, a milestone Tunez jokingly credited to the “Peller effect.”
Peller congratulated Tunez on the achievement, creating a rare heartfelt moment amid the humor.
Unscripted comedy fueled the stream’s shareability. In one widely circulated moment, Peller suggested kissing DJ Tunez, prompting a quick and witty shutdown from the DJ that had viewers laughing across platforms.
