"Imagine having your biggest moment..": SoLLUMINATI clarifies Kick deal rumors after sudden Twitch unban

Javontay Baynes, popularly known as the YouTuber SoLLUMINATI, recently addressed rumors about him signing with another streaming platform, Kick, after he was banned and unbanned by Twitch. The reason behind his ban is that he criticized fellow streamer Zoe Spencer for getting emotional because she was not selected for Kai Cenat's Streamer University.

To address the rumors, SoLLUMINATI uploaded an 11:16-minute video to talk about Twitch banning and unbanning him, what Twitch's actions made him feel, and what he plans to do moving forward. He titled the video, THEY LIED, and the cover image included a picture of the YouTuber along with a Twitch and Kick logo on the left and right sides. Baynes said in the video:

"I drop a video, telling ya'll, Kick was good. Bro, thirty minutes later, they unbanned me, and told me, I'm sorry, it was an error. Imagine having your biggest moment... and the next day you get banned for no reason. N***a, it kills your momentum."

During his 11-minute video, SoLLUMINATI told his viewers that he wants to be honest with them after dropping one of his biggest videos of all him. He said:

"Let me just say this right now. Imma go live to break some sh*t down for ya'll cause I gotta update ya'll. It's been a lot of stuff taking place behind the scenes... I was having a conversation with my lawyer like two days ago. I've been speaking with my brother-in-law about certain sh*t. Man, what Twitch did to me, it don't sit right with me, and I was very f**ked up when they unbanned me."

He continued:

"30 minutes after I dropped my recent vid. They just threw it right on my face. They don't give a f**k about me... They just want you to keep growing their platform. Bring all your biggest moments to Twitch. They ain't giving you sh*t. Straight slaves on that b**ch. It's like working at a 9 to 5," Baynes compared.

He further elaborated that Twitch was being hard on streamers, and compared the streaming platform to a boss who couldn't fire you without a reason and hence made things harder for the "workers," who in this case were the streamers.

He shed some more light on how he got unbanned, saying that it messed with his momentum, and it also messed with him spiritually. He continued to say:

"Twitch has opened up them doors. Say goodbye! My n***a, I'm coming straight for ya'll. Street, listen. Ya'll have opened up some doors ya'll never gonna be able to close again. Ya'll was perfectly fine. Trust me, a shift is about to happen b**ch. Simple."

SoLLUMINATI also told his followers that he would be going live on Monday to "break everything down" because there was not too much he could say on the video. He also mentioned his call with Adin and cleared up the fact that he did not sign any new deal with Kick, but at the same time, he is not in a rush to return to Twitch.
