It all started when Ace began doing musicals in middle school, he would often be casted as the comedic character and it was the laughter he received from the audience that gave him the idea and courage to begin creating his own comedy content videos. By his sophomore year of high school Ace began his path as an influencer and 5 years later, his hard work has paid off. When we asked Ace why he creates the content that he does, he simply replied “to make people smile, everyone deserves to laugh”. In episode 7 of Next Influencer Ace talked about the hardships he and his siblings endured and how hard life became for him when he shared with the world his sexuality. Losing many people in his life at this time due to their inability to accept him for the person he was becoming was hard as he lost the bulk of people who he thought he could trust and lean on as a support system. Calling his influencership a “good escape” from the world he was living in, he used social media to create a world that would not only accept him, but accept everyone without judgment...and he’s doing just that. Ace’s fans know him to be their light in a dark place as he often encourages them to “be you”. Building this one of a kind brand has been no easy feat for Ace, but when asked if he would change anything about the process he’s taking he stated “ I would tell my younger self to be me, from the very beginning”.

Since his first time going viral Ace has been on a mission to show the world he is not “just a TikToker” but a full-fledged entertainer. He signed to SOSANI Agency in 2020 where him and his management team led by CEO, Tinashe Chaponda, have been working to grow Ace outside of social media by utilizing many of his other talents with current projects being worked on for his music, public speaking, modeling and of course more reality to TV opportunities.

When it was revealed that AceBKing was the winner and in fact AwesomenessTV’s Next Influencer, Ace was overcome with emotions as were the other influencers in the house. It was clear to see Ace’s game plan worked….all he had to do was be himself. While Ace made this victory look easy, it didn’t come without drama, of course, but what’s a house full of influencers without some influencer drama? There were lies, secrets, shade and all the tea, but Ace stayed to his script and let his authenticity speak.
