In a recent twist in the ongoing drama between some of hip-hop’s biggest names, popular Twitch streamer Kai Cenat addressed rumors that he had been blocked by Drake. On his May 7 stream, Cenat clarified that the confusion arose from him accidentally using an old number. “He didn’t block me,” Cenat explained to his viewers. “That’s his old number. He just got a new number, I just never got his new number.”
The clarification comes after a tense few days that saw Drake issuing a direct message to Cenat on Instagram, urging him to stay tuned into his stream. This was shortly before Drake released “Family Matters,” a diss track aimed at Kendrick Lamar, on the evening of May 3.
However, the situation escalated quickly as Kendrick Lamar responded with two diss tracks within 24 hours, heating up the feud. Drake’s subsequent release, “The Heart Part 6,” seemed to sway public opinion in favor of Lamar, at least among the fans and including Cenat himself. On Twitch, Cenat expressed his admiration for both artists but conceded, “I love Drake, I love his music, but [Kendrick] is cooking, bro… This is me being completely honest.”
As the hip-hop community watches this feud unfold, it remains to be seen whether Cenat will manage to reconnect with Drake’s new contact details. Meanwhile, the music and drama continue to captivate fans, blurring the lines between personal biases and musical preferences in what could be described as a parasocial paradox.
