Twitch streamer Kai Cenat recently weighed in on Adin Ross not receiving any nominations at the recently concluded Streamer Awards, which was hosted by fellow streamer Blaire "QTCinderella."

Adin's absence could be due to his Twitch ban and past controversies. It's worth noting that Twitch typically doesn't allow banned streamers to appear on other creators' streams, which could have also adversely affected Adin's chances of being nominated for an award.

Twitch star Kai Cenat stated in his stream that Adin should have received "recognition" for his contribution to the streaming community. Kai Cenat noted that Adin has caused a massive shift in the industry and his impact should not be overlooked.

"No? Chat, ya'll saying, 'F this' and 'F that' or 'F**k no' but chat, y'all not remembering like the shift the ni**a like put on streaming? No matter how you were to paint the ni**a..."

What Twitterati said about the clip

The clip was shared by a verified Adin Ross fan page on Twitter, and many of the comments recognized the streamer's contribution to the growth of the W/L community on Twitch. Here are some notable reactions:


For those unaware, Adin Ross is serving yet another ban from the purple platform, his eighth ban overall as of February 26, 2023.

Although the exact reason for the ban remains unconfirmed, it was widely speculated that Adin streaming adult content on his channel from streaming platform Kick.com was what broke Twitch's Terms of Service. Another possible explanation is his unmoderated chat on Kick.com, which included hateful slurs and racial remarks.

Despite being suspended from the Amazon-owned platform, Adin signed an extravagant deal with Kick recently, which he described as the biggest ever among streamers. To read more about the story, click here.
