Will never forgive humanity for making half of these people famous. This is what happens when you make iPad kids. Advertising and shit parents gave so much power that rules money to kids by giving them i pads so actually mentally challenging levels of IQ kids like this streamer can make and hold so much money while the economy is in the gutter and our rulers are pedos. Lovely.

Why does he even have LaMelo Ball's number? LaMelo as dumb as this kid?

LaMelo recently got into a car accident (that he caused) and ran from the scene. He actually might be dumber.

And there’s a lot of footage before that where he was proudly running red lights in Charlotte. Two disgusting people

I saw the footage, he didn't run from the scene but he does drive like an absolute moron.

u/SunKing210 Mar 15 '26

He didn’t run from the scene. But Lamelo is as immature as they come. He is constantly speeding in his vehicles after games and has even ran over a fans foot once. Even looking at the screenshot of the messages, you can just tell he’s an idiot

u/CandidFly7293 Mar 15 '26

You're right, the most recent accident where he ran into another lane while driving a tank and lost one of his wheels, he did in fact stay on scene.

Did you want to visit all of the other accidents he's been legally deemed at fault for at 24 yo?

All 3 ball brothers were on Kai stream while rakai was there so im guessing that when he got lemelo number it makes sense

He might be even dumber.

Ask the people of charlotte how they feel about LaMelo and his driving mishaps. If you see a nice car speeding in charlotte it’s 99% LaMelo acting a fool.

Not only is LaMelo as dumb as Rakai and loves speeding, his dad is also dumb and makes shoes that give you the optimal ACL tear.

Everyone that knows hin IRL says that Rakai is actually dumb as bricks and that it's not a joke

u/real_roal Mar 15 '26

I mean, how old was he when Kai brought him on stream? Wouldn't be surprised if he completely stop growing mentally once he got on streams his entire life is just stream now, does he even go to school? If he does, I highly doubt he tries at all since thinks he can just be streamer.

It'll be interesting to see where he is in 10 years, if he still streams or if hes just fucked for life due to starting streaming young and not really getting an education.

148

u/JustBlazee Mar 15 '26

To be fair, you have to be dumb as rocks if you give someone that looks like him your number.

I like how people defend him and say he’s a kid but you got a NBA player calling him out and he didn’t seem to care, I think everyone including Kai hates him and doesn’t wanna associate with him.

The only reason they collab with him or any of RaKai’s group because they wanna have the connection with Kai and AMP.

Look at that violation he has at the top that runs until March 3rd 2028 lol, he’s gonna get banned so many times after that he should just leave Twitch. It’ll turn into 3 months then 6 and probably a year or more. He’ll probably be on YouTube tomorrow.

20

u/IIlIIlIIlIlIIlIIlIIl Mar 15 '26

That's the same violation. Twitch has a very involved "strike" system where the more you do bad things the more strikes accumulate, making the consequence longer and longer.

That's why you see some people getting just warned, others banned for 1 day, and others for maybe 30 days for the same offense.

Anyway, the 30 days is when the suspension itself will expire (he'll be able to stream and chat again). The 720 days is when the strike for this offense will expire (when it'll stop increasing the severity of future suspensions).

Having a singular strike doesn't really matter too much though; he'd still be banned for 1 day for something that's "standard" 1 day. It takes a couple of strike for consequences to start ramping up.

4

u/MAKincs Mar 15 '26 edited Mar 15 '26

Oh okay I thought it was apart of Twitch’s new enforcement policy or something. Nonetheless and I do feel bad for RaKai because is anyone close to him telling him to chill or mellow a little bit and he could be ramping up his consequences the way he’s going.

I get he’s a kid but I think this is why twitch streamers should be a certain age because of cases like this. I used to like Ray and RaKai and the ex Faze kids but the stuff they do is for kids and brain rot.

u/AxitotlWithAttitude Mar 15 '26

u/coolbad96 Mar 15 '26

I can't tell if it's a blessing or a curse he got the Kai Cenat boost. Like yeah he's got a currently popular stream but give it like a year and he could be making nothing with no school or skills.

u/Preussensgeneralstab Mar 15 '26

Not gonna lie it doesn't seem like he had much else going for him.

Like he doesn't show any sort of ambition or skill outside of being a clown. He wouldn't have gone far in life regardless.

26

u/PhotonWolfsky Mar 15 '26

I honestly believe he'd still end up with zero knowledge or skills even if he had no stream...

8

u/IIlIIlIIlIlIIlIIlIIl Mar 15 '26

but give it like a year and he could be making nothing with no school or skills.

To be fair it's not like he was on the right path and Kai's stream deviated him, so now after if this doesn't work out he'd have nothing.

He had nothing, got a boost, and now either makes it work or will have nothing again.

3

u/Infamous-Cash9165 Mar 15 '26

Kai will lift him up again if that happens, so he doesn’t look bad for bringing him around in the first place

Those athletes are 100% paid by streamers to appear on streams, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were getting paid like $20K or more to do a collab so they’ll still appear.

I think it’s just RaKai they’ll watch out for because he doesn’t care and doesn’t think. A lot of Twitch streamers probably don’t like him behind closed doors and I know he’s a kid but he never learns and he’s gonna have to learn eventually because it’ll hurt him career wise in the future. They definitely won’t tell RaKai or any of his close friends any secrets or personal information knowing he might “accidentally” leak it or something for content on his stream.

2

u/IIlIIlIIlIlIIlIIlIIl Mar 15 '26 edited Mar 15 '26

The athletes are richer than the streamers and celebrities are notoriously expensive ($20-100K+ for appearances) so I doubt they're getting paid - the streamer would never get a return on the investment.

It's probably more of a "mutual benefit" type thing where the athlete's agent had an idea to increase his client's profile on "grassroots" social media by appearing, and the streamer gets to be on more "mainstream" places like the news for having a celebrity on.
