Social media is split after streamer Rakai went viral for reading The Cat in the Hat live on stream, a moment he said was inspired by Kai Cenat’s recent focus on self-growth. While some viewers saw the clip as lighthearted and supportive, others questioned whether Rakai was subtly mocking Kai’s personal journey.
Kai Cenat has recently been open about prioritizing his mental health and personal growth. The streamer shared that he stepped back from streaming to focus on new creative pursuits, including launching a fashion brand.
He has also documented building new habits, such as taking sewing lessons and reading daily, to improve his public speaking. In a series of YouTube videos, Kai reads aloud, looks up unfamiliar words, and tracks his progress, a move that even earned praise from Merriam-Webster online.
Inspired by Kai’s journey, his 17-year-old streamer protégé Rakai went live Thursday and told viewers he plans to start each stream by reading to improve his speech. He then pulled out Dr. Seuss’ The Cat in the Hat and read it aloud to his chat. The moment quickly circulated online, with social media users split on whether Rakai was being supportive or mocking Kai’s self-improvement efforts.
Reactions poured in across Instagram, with users divided in The Shade Room Teens comment section. Here’s what they are saying:
While many fans have praised Kai Cenat’s shift toward fashion and self-discipline, not everyone seems to understand the change. On Thursday evening, Soulja Boy took to X, writing, “The jig is up wtf happened to Kai Cenat 😳.” The post comes as Kai continues to document his new routines, including reading, sewing, working out, and building his clothing brand, Vivet. Soulja Boy’s tweet quickly gained traction, pulling in more than 600,000 views and sparking mixed reactions from social media users.
