Roberto Escanio (born 22 August 1997), known as Fanum, is an American livestreamer and content creator. A founding member of the AMP (Any Means Possible) collective, he is associated with viral slang such as “Fanum tax” and collaborative challenge / roleplay content with peers including Kai Cenat.[1]
Career[edit]
Escanio began Twitch streaming in November 2016 and launched YouTube channel JustFanum in 2017, moving from NBA 2K toward IRL New York vlogs and Just Chatting / GTA Online formats. He won Streamy “Breakout Streamer of the Year” and Streamer Awards “Best Roleplay Streamer” (2022 and 2023).[1]
He invited Kai Cenat into AMP; both were involved in the August 2023 Union Square meet-and-greet that led to Cenat’s arrest (Fanum was not charged). In February 2025 he played in the Match for Hope charity soccer event in Doha on the AboFlah & KSI side opposite a team featuring IShowSpeed.[1]
