\n\tDoes Kai Cenat<\/a> not know who Wale<\/a> is?<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring Monday night\u2019s 2025 BET Awards<\/a>, the two crossed paths in what looked like a parking garage while Cenat was doing a livestream of his night. They greeted each other as Wale was playing Nintendo Switch, and when he told the popular streamer that he was playing Super Smash Bros.<\/em>, Cenat replied that he would beat him. However, when Kai got in the backseat of his black SUV, he realized everyone in his chat recognized Wale while he didn\u2019t have a clue.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tIs Kai Cenat Music\u2019s Most Powerful\u00a0Influencer?\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\tThis apparently bothered the D.C. rapper enough to later politely confront Cenat while he was sitting next to Snoop Dogg<\/a> at the show. \u201cThat sh\u2013 making me look crazy now, just so you know,\u201d Wale told an oblivious Cenat. \u201cThey running with it, but we\u2019ll talk later.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBoth interactions went viral, and when it made The Shade Room, Wale commented<\/a> that he didn\u2019t realize that Kai had a livestream going. \u201cThis is crazy,\u201d Wale wrote when he stepped into The Shade Room. \u201cI didn\u2019t know we was bein filmed both times..we played in a celebrity football game last year \u2026I was reallly confused.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThen on Tuesday morning (June 10), Wale poked fun at himself and posted their first interaction in the form of an ad for the Nintendo Switch on his X account. \u201cYall not on smash fr,\u201d he tweeted.<\/p>\n
