Kylie Cox (born 1998 or 1999)[4][1], better known as Sketch or TheSketchReal, is an American Twitch streamer, YouTuber, and player of Madden NFL 24, an American football sports video game series.[5] He is well known for his catchphrase, "What's up, brother?", which went viral and became a trend on the short-form video platform TikTok.[4]

Early life

Cox was born around 1998–1999 in Houston, Texas, United States.[4][1]

Cox attended The Woodlands Christian Academy and played for the school linebacker football team. He went to Mississippi State University, then transferred to the University of Oklahoma, Texas State University, and, eventually, Lone Star College before deciding to leave academics.[1]

From 2020 up until 2023, Cox worked in real estate, buying and selling land, before his career in gaming.[1]

Career

2023: Early career

Cox started streaming on TikTok playing Madden NFL 24, an American football sports video game series.[5][6] He then later began dual-streaming on both TikTok and Twitch in July 2023.[7][6] Later in November 2023, he began publishing his content on YouTube, posting Madden NFL 24 gameplay and vlog videos.[8]

2024–present: TikTok viral and collaborations

What's up, brother?

"What's up, brother?" was Cox's catchphrase, first seen during a FaceTime call with fellow Twitch streamer, content creator, and friend, Nicholas Stewart, known as Jynxzi. Stewart called him during a stream, to which Cox's replied by saying the line with his index finger point up.[9]

Cox went viral on TikTok after a trend in which women say Cox's catchphrase, "What's up, brother?" to their boyfriends, along with pointing their index finger up to see if they recognized it. The men would either be confused, or respond in Cox's voice, "What's up, brother!"[5][4] or wave their arms and say “Tuesday, Tuesday.”[5][10]

The trend has been adopted by lots of pro sports teams, such as the Dallas Mavericks, the Tennessee Titans, the Final Four teams in March Madness, and the NFL.[4] Some professional sports players were seen doing the sketch's celebration, such as Bryce Harper, Johan Rojas, Bo Naylor, Kyle Tucker, and many more.[5]

2024 NFL Draft

On April 24, 2024, the Houston Texans revealed on Twitter that Cox will announce one of their 2024 NFL draft picks.[11][12] Later on April 27, 2024, Cox announced the Houston Texans fourth-round pick, as the Texans selected Ohio State's Cade Stover with pick No. 123.[13][14][15]

Personal life

Cox currently resides in Houston, Texas[1] and is a supporter of Houston Texans.[15][12][13]
