"He is huge": Billie Eilish crowns Kai Cenat the GOAT of streaming

In a recent interview with Complex, Billie Eilish and Quenlin Blackwell named Kai Cenat the greatest of all time (GOAT) in streaming. With over 16.5 million followers on Twitch, Cenat is one of the most popular live streamers in the world. He frequently collaborates with high-profile celebrities, including SZA, Offset, and many others.

Cenat's influence on the hip-hop world has also been recognized, as evidenced by his ranking as number one on Complex's recent list of top hip-hop streamers. The Twitch star was also one of the two content creators invited to the recent Grammys, where he livestreamed from the red carpet.

When Billie Eilish was asked to name the GOAT streamer in the Complex interview, she said:

"Goat streamer? I know of some, but I don't what's good or bad about any of them. All I can think is, one."

Quenlin Blackwell immediately knew who she was referring to and responded:

"Kai?"

Eilish replied in the affirmative:

"Yeah."
