Previously Encountered Controversies with Streamers
In a notable incident from February 2024, Playboi Carti’s interaction with streamer Adin Ross took an unexpected turn during a livestream on Kick. The session spiraled out of control when Carti walked away after Ross presented him with a duffle bag purportedly filled with $2 million in cash.
The scenario quickly captured attention on various social media platforms, where streamer Ludwig remarked on the event’s shock value:
“Just witnessed the biggest scam in live streaming history $2 mill gone.”
A month later, Adin Ross provided insights into the unfolding drama, mentioning:
“We just went back and forth. Carti was like, ‘What do we got to do?’ And then Will got outside. Will was getting pissed off too. Will was like, ‘Nah bro, you’re not going to do Adin like that. This is his s**t.’ They were asking for the other half of the money. Will was like, ‘We are not giving out s**t.’ He wanted to press me right here, the British guy (Carti’s team member). He started getting at my face, basically like, ‘What are we doing?’ and I said, ‘There’s no reason to put your hand on my face.’
Despite many streamers receiving positive messages from Playboi Carti, Adin Ross has not disclosed whether he has reestablished communication with the rapper following their controversy.
