[table id=275 /]Early Life
Jakob Swaerden aka FaZe Teeqo was born on October 24th, 1993 in Sweden. He rarely discussed about his childhood so there is not much information about his early life. While growing up, Teeqo enjoyed everyday teenage athletics like football and hockey.
In fact, at one point in his life, he decided on becoming a professional football player. As a teenager, he began playing the video game series “Tomb Raider” on his old desktop. From that point on, video games became the passion of his life.
Career
After playing video games for several years, Teeqo’s love for gaming crossed over with an organization known as “FaZe Clan”. FaZe is initially a gaming group that was founded in 2010 and is renowned for its impressive “Call Of Duty” gameplay streams.
In 2011, Teeqo joined the collective “FaZe Clan” which was more than one year old. FaZe Teeqo’s official YouTube channel was created in March 2014, titled “FaZe Teeqo Jakob” but later renamed to simply “Teeqo”.
About two years earlier, Teeqo had arrived in the United States for the first time from Sweden. He moved directly into the FaZe Clan house which at that time was located in Long Island, New York. Teeqo spent the next couple of years gaming for the group and appearing in content under the banner.
Breakthrough
Later in 2014, Teeqo switched his focus to his own channel. His first individual upload was a video titled “The Return of FaZe Teeqo”. He continued to share a wide variety of content with his audience including pranks, challenges, cooking vlogs, and gameplay montages.
Another popular series of his became his ongoing fitness chronicle that documented his multi-month intensive body transformation. That series went on to accumulate over a million views in total. As of today, Teeqo has over 850 videos on his main YouTube channel.
Gradually, he’s moved away from focusing so much on gaming to allow more of his personality to shine through. He uploaded some popular videos like the trap roommate prank or the sticky notes car prank.
Other Ventures
In 2021 Teeqo and other members of the FaZe Clan took to promoting a digital currency known as “Save the Kids”. Not long after, the news came out that the members who were involved in the promotion, have been paid to do so while also pumping their own funds and investments into the token.
As a result, all of these four members were suspended from the FaZe Clan group. However, Teeqo always maintained that he never invested his own money into the currency and he played no role in its creation either. Thus, a few months later, Teeqo would be welcomed back into FaZe Clan in September 2021.
Personal Life
In 2023, Teeqo and a number of content creators from the FaZe Clan’s group began speaking out against the team for many reasons. In March of that year, he took particular issue with the fake promises that management had been making for him for a long time.
Teeqo claimed that throughout his 12 years as a member of FaZe, he had only signed one contract with them. He ended his initial series of revelations by demanding FaZe let him know his official status within the organization. Following that, Teeqo decided to leave both FaZe Clan and the United States behind and returned to Sweden.
