Tim Chantarangsu - also known as Traphik and Timothy DeLaghetto - is an asian american rapper/comedian/actor. He is best known for his YouTube Channels in which he uploads comedic skits or shorts and his raps

Tim was born on March 6, 1986 in Billings, Montana to parents who come from Thailand. They soon came to Paramount (a suburb in Los Angeles) where Tim was raised. There he attended Paramount High School where he says he started pursuing poetry and acting and met his closest friends.

Tim honed his poetry skills and started free-styling. He soon started making his own remixes and original tracks and skits and uploaded them in myspace and YouTube to share with his friends. But he started recognizing that more and more people than just his friends were watching his stuff. So naturally he uploaded more content and became a well known name among the YouTube community.

Tim's channels have brought many contents. Whether it be comedic shorts, music videos for his tracks, or parodies. And with his channel he has made a big fan-base. His main channel currently has 1,444,328 subscribers on YouTube. And although some of his content maybe mature, But it is very funny. Some of my favorites are the "Dear DeLaGhetto" videos, "No Racial", and "15 and Pregnant".

I picked TimothyDeLaGhetto as my hero because he is someone who motivates me and I'm sure most people to do what they want in life. If there is ever a time I'm down or just bored, i just go to youtube and watch his videos. He is a funny, energetic, happy person who's personality can lighten up your whole day. He also encourages people to pursue their dreams and is supportive to all his fans and even lends some advice from his personal experiences. Tim is an all around great person and he is MY HERO.
