Brazil mistakes Kai Cenat for Playboi Carti
Kai Cenat, the popular streamer known for his strong presence in the hip-hop community, recently addressed a fan's mistaken identity during a Brazil stream.
The moment occurred when an excited passerby repeatedly yelled "I am music!" at Cenat, mistakenly assuming he was Playboi Carti. Cenat, who had made a surprise appearance during Carti's recent Rolling Loud performance, responded by clarifying, "No, I'm not Playboi Carti. I'm Kai!"
The interaction unfolded as Cenat strolled through the streets of Brazil, with a crowd gathering around him. In the clip, seen circulating online over the weekend, Cenat can be seen holding a can of Coca-Cola and greeting the crowd with a friendly "Hola." At one point, a fan shouting "Carti!" followed up by repeatedly yelling "I am music!" – a phrase tied to what was speculated to be the title of Carti's recently released album MUSIC. The album, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, was originally rumored to carry the title Whole Lotta Red 2, before ultimately being released as MUSIC.
In the wake of his Rolling Loud appearance with Carti, Cenat shared how special the experience was for him, noting that being on stage in front of thousands of fans was unforgettable. "It literally doesn't get no better than this," he said in a stream.
Carti's MUSIC album, which marks his return after nearly five years, continues to dominate the charts, signaling its strong potential for a second consecutive week at No. 1.

Sabrina Carpenter roasts immature men in hilarious Manchild music video
Sabrina Carpenter is taking aim at emotionally immature partners in her new single Manchild, released June 5. The following day, the pop star unveiled a humorous and theatrical music video directed by Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia, in which she lampoons the absurdity of modern dating. Set to lyrics critiquing emotional immaturity — 'Stupid, or is it slow / Maybe it's useless / But there's a cuter word for it, I know: Manchild' — the video follows Carpenter through the American West as she attempts to escape a series of hopeless suitors. Whether she's riding on the back of a jet ski barreling down a desert highway, crammed in a shopping cart hitched to a motorcycle, or balancing on a motorized recliner, each vignette shows her failing to get anywhere with men who can't seem to grow up. The Grammy-nominated artist poked fun at the concept on Instagram, writing: 'it's exactly what i pictured in my head… no animals were harmed in the making but some men were.' Manchild is Carpenter's first new release since the deluxe edition of Short n' Sweet, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. She co-wrote the track with songwriter Amy Allen and producer Jack Antonoff. On Instagram, she said it was written after finishing the album: 'this song became to me something I can look back on that will score the mental montage to the very confusing and fun young adult years of life.' Carpenter is currently on a brief hiatus from her Short n' Sweet world tour, which resumes in July with performances in London's Hyde Park, followed by a North American leg.
