N3ON, born Rangesh Mutama on August 13, 2004, is an American live streamer and internet personality. He began making gaming content on YouTube in May 2016, at about age eleven, concentrating on NBA 2K and Fortnite, and later moved into live streaming on Twitch and then Kick, where he became one of the platform's most-watched IRL streamers; a 2026 industry profile credits him with roughly 765,000 Kick followers and 1.17 million YouTube subscribers. His rise was powered in part by a paid clipping network that distributes short clips of his streams across social platforms, a model reported to have cost about $1.4 million over five weeks. His career has also drawn documented controversy, reported neutrally here: a 2024 detention in Dubai over filming without permission, a 2024 Kick ban, and a September 2024 Twitch suspension. In August 2026 the crypto casino JACK.com announced signing him to lead its United States creator push, and Business Insider has described him as one of Kick's top stars.

Notes

Staged 2026-10-16 under CTL-GOV-006 (Fill 500 Lists Wave 4, Tier 1 — 747 Program). Gate A (2026-10-16): no N3ON / Rangesh Mutama entity in the live graph at 3,409 entities (exact/normalized/alias + token containment, checked under both the stage name and the legal name); ID CTL-E-5723 free. Supply: 747 Supply Ledger, Fill 500 Comedians gap #29 — a streamer on the mixed civic list (the bucket's influencer tail), stated openly. TIER: Provisional — the identification is solid, but the sourcing is trade-press and aggregator grade with no authoritative record located, and a material conflict is unresolved (below); the record stages Provisional rather than borrowing certainty. Vital status: LIVING — verified by the August 2026 JACK.com signing coverage. CONFLICT shown, not blended (GOV-004): birthplace. WIN.gg's profile gives Houston, Texas; low-weight biography pages give Chicago, Illinois, or “grew up in Chicago.” The description therefore asserts NO birthplace; the Chicago connection that presumably put him on a Chicago list is itself UNRESOLVED in the sources consulted. STATISTICS (sourced, dated): Kick 765k followers, YouTube 1.17M subscribers — WIN.gg profile figures, accessed 2026-10-16; peak concurrent viewers 153,406, January 2024 — Gambling News, August 2026. Net-worth figures are EXCLUDED entirely (series rule from Shorts Gap Wave 3). The Dubai matter is carried as a detention reported by WIN.gg; a separate aggregator claim of a one-year sentence is explicitly marked unclear by its own source and is NOT carried. MEDIA: photo HELD (candidate named in the packet); chart FILLED; video HELD (no CTL Short — the Link Map check covers the stage name and “Neon”); audio HELD. Blocked edges documented in the packet: Adin Ross collaborated_with (documented association; no graph entity for Ross); Kick (no platform entity). MEDIA LAYER (staged 2026-10-16; full per-asset PHOTO-001 records + embed specs in the packet's staged JSON, Drive packet folder): map = N/A (Persons receive no maps (media-layer rule carried from the CULTGRAPH packets).) | visual_assets = HELD: No Commons file page could be read at file-page level in this pass, so the slot is HELD rather than cleared on | chart = FILLED (Built only from this record's own sourced, dated facts; data table printed in the packet.) | video = HELD (No CTL Short for this subject — checked against the CTL Shorts Link Map catalog (2026-10-15) by full name and ) | audio = HELD (No matching-entity audio with a verified rights basis located in this pass (no CTL-owned audio; third-party st)
