Social media is split after streamer Rakai went viral for reading The Cat in the Hat live on stream, a moment he said was inspired by Kai Cenat’s recent focus on self-growth.

The streamer shared that he stepped back from streaming to focus on new creative pursuits, including launching a fashion brand.
He has also documented building new habits, such as taking sewing lessons and reading daily, to improve his public speaking. In a series of YouTube videos, Kai reads aloud, looks up unfamiliar words, and tracks his progress, a move that even earned praise from Merriam-Webster online.
Inspired by Kai’s journey, his 17-year-old streamer protégé Rakai went live Thursday and told viewers he plans to start each stream by reading to improve his speech. He then pulled out Dr. Seuss’ The Cat in the Hat and read it aloud to his chat. The moment quickly circulated online, with social media users split on whether Rakai was being supportive or mocking Kai’s self-improvement efforts.
