Canadian rapper Aubrey Drake Graham, popularly known as Drake, has recently been making headlines for reasons other than music. The rapper has reportedly been in a clash with two major companies, including Universal Music Group and the gambling company, Stake. In a recent update, fans and followers noticed that the rapper's Kick account had reportedly disappeared on August 21, 2025.

According to Dexerto, Drake is one of the most popular celebrities associated with Kick and Stake. However, the news outlet reported that on August 17, the One Dance singer allegedly went on a rant against Kick's CEO, Eddie Craven, describing him as a "goof" in streamer Trainwreck's chat. While there had been rumours about Graham's beef with Kick and Stake, his recent messages added fuel to the fire.

X user Feared Buck posted a screenshot of an error popping up when searching for Graham's account on Kick.

Users took to the comment section and dropped mixed reactions about the account's disappearance following his alleged crashout.

One user (@Mrlaylow66) indicated the potential fallout with the streaming channel and noted,

"Drake wasted no time cutting times."

Another user (@suayrez) shared a clip of streamer Adin Ross reportedly confirming that Drake won't be streaming anymore.

Another user speculated about the reason and linked it to the recent passing of French streamer Jean Pormanove. They wrote (@Agtesnx),

"He saw a man got k***ed on that platform and couldn’t let the money take control of him so he deleted that shit my respect for him has just gone over the roof."

Fans continued to speculate on the reasons, with one user (@rebelmind) noting,

"Maybe because he got a deal with YouTube to stream ICEMAN episodes and KICK/Stake didn't like that. It was odd that he streamed on YouTube vs KICK."

They added,

"Also, He currently has a merch collaboration going on with Amazon, which owns Twitch. A lot of brands with competing products/services creating conflicts of interest."

After Drake's account disappeared on Kick, netizens spiralled into a series of speculations. While the exact reasons are unclear, and it is also unknown if the account is permanently deleted, many linked the move to his alleged beef against the streaming channel. The rapper has reportedly spoken against Kick's contracts and wrote among multiple messages,

“We built this s*it, and they treat us like s*it still. I was never allowed to push affiliate."

Amid controversies and legal battles, the singer has reportedly pledged to cover the funeral costs of French streamer Jean Pormanove, who recently passed away during a livestream marathon, per Billboard.


Graham's Kick account disappearance caused a wave of speculation on the internet. However, the rapper hasn't clarified if this is temporary or a permanent exit from the streaming channel.
