His last vlog was a glimpse into their new home, which he bought for his mother. “Magre-retire na iyong nanay ko and I want her to experience na may sarili na kaming bahay,” he said.
Cadena first began his YouTube channel back in 2010.
He had more than 8 million subscribers combined over two YouTube channels, and was best known for his hilarious antics and candid vlogs about his daily life. He had more than 5 million followers on Facebook.
In 2018, he released a book with ABS-CBN Publishing, “Ex-Rated: ex – (noun) lubak, wrong turn, mistake, hayop,” a compilation of funny takes “on the right way to be unloved.”

Fans and fellow social media stars were quick to mourn Cadena’s death, resulting in his name becoming the top trending topic on Twitter in the Philippines.
The news came as a blow to a community still reeling from the death of one of its content creators, Emman Nimedez, who passed away mid-August after a battle with acute myeloid leukemia.
