"I don't know what Rumble offered. But... I don't know maybe it's more than that. So, that just goes to show you, bro, motherf**kers are... f**king... it's NBA money, bro! NBA f**king money! You know what I'm saying? So... this s**t is crazy, bro! This s**t's crazy as f**k!"Continuing further, the 22-year-old personality praised Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed for "sticking to their roots" and jokingly referred to himself as a "sellout":
"One thing I respect about Kai and Speed, they stick to their f**king roots. Twitch and YouTube. And that is what's it all about. You know what I'm saying? Me? I'm a sellout, bro! I'm a sellout."Fans react to the streamer's revelation
