On February 9, 2024, Kick star Adin Ross collaborated with Mexican band Fuerza Regida's lead vocalist, Jesús Ortíz Paz, also known as "JOP." During the livestream, JOP expressed an interest in joining the Stake-backed platform and asked Adin Ross how much Kick would pay if he broadcasted once per week. He stated:
"So if I say, I stream once a week, how much can you give me? How much are you going to put in my pockets? I heard you have pieces or something like that, right?"
Adin Ross was taken aback after hearing the musician's interest in joining Kick and explained how the platform operated. While not naming the content creator, Adin stated that Kick was compelled to implement measures because someone "came and f**ked a lot of s**t up."

"S**t, on Kick? Yeah, so look - on Kick, how it works now because a lot of motherf**kers got f**ked up, and they think they can just come and make all this money. But, we know what happened. Someone came and f**ked a lot of s**t up."
According to Adin Ross, if JOP brings his community to Kick, then he would "get a bag." He also stated that he was unable to discuss the monetary figures live on the stream and added:
"If you bring your core to Kick and you develop, like, a real community, you get a bag, for sure! A bag. (JOP says, 'You can't say a number, though?') Can't talk numbers. I'm on the CEO s**t now. Off-camera, yeah, yeah, yeah!"
