During a livestream on October 17, 2023, Adin Ross reacted to a viral video featuring Lil Yachty. According to the American rapper and singer-songwriter, popular streamers such as the Kick ambassador and Twitch star Kai Cenat have more money than "90% of rappers." Lil Yachty was heard saying:
"The young ones, they going crazy! Kai, for sure, (has) got more money than, I think, 90% of rappers. 90% of the rappers, I think got... (Lil Yachty's associate mentions Adin Ross) Adin too! For sure! Happy belated birthday, Adin."
Adin Ross agreed with Lil Yachty's assertions. However, he upped the figures, saying he and Kai Cenat have more money than "95% of rappers." Admitting he is not the "richest streamer of all time," the Florida native asserted that he was not being egotistic and was simply laying down "facts."

Ross went on to comment on rappers who have embodied a "cool image," calling them "cringe and corny":
"A lot of rappers and a lot of people that want to f**k with people because... a lot of rappers love this 'cool image,' bro. It's so cringe and corny to me! And, I'm not saying you have to be friends with me or Kai to not fit that 'image.' But there are a lot of rappers that just try so hard to be cool and not who they are, just to look cool on the internet."
