drake publicly complained that kai cenat did not send him a vivet backpack
the backpack costs $550. drake is worth approximately several hundred million dollars. he still wanted the backpack.
so drake went on the internet and called out kai cenat for not sending him a vivet streaming backpack.
the backpack retails for $550. per reporting from ndtv sports, drake made clear, publicly, that he had not received one. this is apparently a grievance worth airing.
for context, chat: vivet is kai cenat's brand, the one he allegedly slept in factories to produce, the one that got a full nyfw moment, the one the college newspapers are still arguing about. the streaming backpack is a core product. drake wants it. drake allegedly does not have it.
the callout landed on september 29th, the same morning that rakai was also on the internet denying reggie travers' childhood abuse allegations and saying he "never got touched in any way growing up," per the times of india. kai cenat has still not publicly addressed the reggie situation. so he is currently being called out by both a grammy-winning rapper over a backpack and a streamer over something considerably heavier, and his public response to either is approximately zero.
the backpack angle is, objectively, the funnier corner of this.
drake asking for free merch from a 23-year-old twitch streamer is a certain kind of lore moment. it suggests drake is either a genuine kai cenat fan, is doing a bit, or saw the vivet press cycle and simply wanted in. per the available signal, no explanation has been offered. just the callout. just the absence of the backpack.
kai has spent the last week descending into a volcano in iceland, announcing a seven wonders streaming tour, and doing press rounds about sleeping in factories for his brand. the brand, to be clear, that he did not send to one of the most famous people on earth who was apparently asking for it.
this is so real it feels made up.
there is no word yet on whether drake will receive the backpack, whether kai is aware of the callout, or whether a $550 streaming backpack is something drake actually intends to use or simply wished to possess. all three possibilities are equally plausible and none of them matter.
what matters is that vivet has officially entered the phase of its press cycle where celebrities are publicly requesting it. whether that was the plan or not, the lore grows.
anyway. the backpack did not send itself.
