Kai Cenat Explains His Viral Reaction To Hearing Drake On Lil Yachty’s Collaboration
Kai Cenat recently reflected on his premiere of Lil Yachty and Drake’s unreleased collaboration, “Super Soak,” during which he was elated about Drake’s verse as soon as the Toronto rapper began performing. Speaking about the drama surrounding his reaction, Cenat explained that he didn’t know Drake was featured on the track beforehand.
“The clip doesn’t explain the full story so dumbass idiots see sh*t and run with it,” he began. “So, when Yachty sent me the track with him and Drake on it, they was coming at Drake and saying that he sent me it to play it. Then on top of that, they was on my ass for the way I was reacting because I was yelling because I didn’t know that Drake was on the track. Word to my mother, Yachty sent it to me live. I asked him live, ‘Can I leak the whole thing?’ He said, ‘Yeah, f*ck it.’ I played it. I didn’t even know Drake was on the track. You know what I could’ve did with that? I could’ve took the unreleased and ran up a million with that motherf*cker bro. That’s why I reacted the way I did.”

Kanye West & Bianca Censori Take North To See “Deadpool & Wolverine” In LA
It’s been an undoubtedly hectic few months for both Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori. The high-profile pair have been making headlines for their overseas excursions, the Australian model’s scandalous outfits, and more. In recent days, however, they appear to have opted to enjoy their summer with a few more relaxing outings. Earlier this weekend, for example, they were spotted taking in the nice weather by the pool in Santa Barbara.
Now, they’ve been seen with Ye’s daughter North, spending an evening at the movies. Reportedly, the trio went to see Deadpool & Wolverine at a theater in LA last night, enjoying some wholesome family fun. While parts of the film may be a bit over the 11-year-old’s head, as it was the biggest R-rated opening in history, they appeared to have a blast.

It seems like they enjoyed the movie, as they stayed for the whole thing. The same can’t be said for Fly Me to the Moon, however, which the couple sat through just about half of last week.
