Kai Cenat is one of the biggest names in all of live-streamed entertainment. But it's his very name that is apparently tripping people up. During a recent conversation, he was asked about people pronouncing his name wrong and gave an enthusiastic response. Clearly the mistakes bother him as he explained the incorrect was people pronounce the a in Cenat. In particular, there's one person whose mistake bothers him the most, Drake.

It's not hard to see why he would be hung up on Drake mispronouncing his name given how many people are paying attention every time Drake talks. It's unclear if the interview comments are intended to eventually get Drake to say it right or just more joking excitement from Kai. The two interviewers in the clip seem to be in on the joke as they parlay it directly into a full conversation about the rapper. In particular, they touch on his recent beef with Kendrick Lamar. Though they're more concerned with who has more aura between the two rappers. Check out the interview clip where they discuss Drake below.
