Maddie Ziegler’s summer is about to be filled with love after taking her relationship with Daniel Hackett, who goes by Kid Culture, public on June 4, 2024. The Dance Moms alum shared PDA-filled photos with her new beau, and fans want to learn more about him!

What Is Kid Culture’s Job?

Kid Culture is a songwriter and producer who achieved immense success as a teen. He has collaborated with A-list artists including Cardi B, Usher and Ed Sheeran. Fun fact: Kid Culture co-wrote and produced Justin Bieber’s 2021 Grammy-nominated song “Yummy” and it only took him 20 minutes to create the beat.

“I’ve always been around music since a young age because my dad is an amazing producer and songwriter,” the ​music mogul previously told CNN. “I remember I started playing drums at like two years old in church, that’s when I first picked up some drumsticks. I just remember that feeling of like, ‘Wow, this feels amazing. I need to keep doing this.’”

Kid Culture also revealed that his parents supported his career at five years old and uprooted to Los Angeles.
