XQC and Sneako Get Into It Over the Ex-Rumble Streamers Alleged Contract: Will Sneako Fit Well on Kick?

News
XQC and Sneako Fight Over Alleged Kick Deal
Icon date 18 October 2024

On a recent Adin Ross stream featuring the controversial internet personality Sneako, it was announced that he would switch from streaming on Rumble to Kick. Upon hearing the news, Adin and his crew popped off, welcoming him to Kick.

However, some streamers seemed quite upset with him joining the platform, especially considering he was getting paid a rumored $30 million. Popular streamer XQC was one of the upset parties, claiming he would quit streaming on Kick if Sneako got the alleged deal.

“I’m putting it all on the line, all of it. If this is actually true. I quit. I kick myself off the platform; I’m outie… Because I know it’s not true.”

Despite the complaints and questions surrounding his deal, Sneako went live for the very first time on October 15, 2024, amassing a sizable audience.

In response to XQC’s claim, Sneako snapped back, stating:

“They don’t even watch you. You’re saying you’re going to quit as if it’s a threat. They don’t want you on Kick, if you wanna leave bro, I don’t think anyone’s like, ‘Oh no! I can’t see him click fruit anymore”.

However, he did give some clarification right after dissing XQC, admitting that the $30 million deal was purely clickbait from different news sources. He also claimed he knew that XQC was talking about his deal but still questioned why he cared.

“Why do you care how much money I’m making? Why do you care if I’m on this website? Why does that bother you? I do my thing; you do your thing. If you don’t wanna squash it, if you want to be angry, that’s fine. You don’t need to gamble on me.”

Sneako and the “Manosphere” Making Its Way to Kick

Sneako has had his fair share of controversial takes and opinions over the years, ranging from highly misogynistic beliefs to openly criticizing the LGBT community. Due to the polarizing nature of this content, he has inevitably developed a large and highly loyal fanbase that will follow him to Kick.

These fans will likely bleed out to other parts of the platform, influencing communities and likely shifting the makeup of Kick overall.

That being said, Sneako is probably just the beginning, as allowing a creator of his size from the manosphere to set up shop on the platform will bring many others. Rumble has housed many of these creators for years, but this could drive even YouTubers to Kick.

The Redpill community has absolutely exploded over the last decade, with no signs of stopping, and Kick looks like it might be welcoming them with open arms.

Kick CEO Ed Craven has proven time and time again he’s willing to make controversial moves if it means growing the platform and overall revenue, and it looks like this is his newest venture. But seeing as Kick’s audience is already overwhelmingly male, this really does make sense; it’s just a shame that some of the female creators will likely start receiving more hate in response to this.
