Rakai accused his longtime friend and fellow streamer 2xCeej of stealing money from him over the past two years in a series of Instagram posts on Wednesday, November 4. The allegation emerged suddenly, with Rakai sharing a photo of the two of them alongside a caption that said, “Last night I found my day 1 friend been stealing money from me since 2024.”
Following the initial post, Rakai uploaded additional content to his Instagram Story to provide context. One clip showed Rakai confronting 2xCeej with another individual, while another featured 2xCeej apologizing. “I apologize for everything. I didn’t intentionally do that. I apologize. I didn’t know… I am going to make it right for using the card. I didn’t know,” 2xCeej said in the video.
The dispute has drawn swift reactions on social media. Users in The Shade Room Teens comment section expressed mixed opinions. Instagram user @___unfazed.e suggested the issue could have been resolved privately in a family group chat. Another, @rayyy.diorrr, questioned why 2xCeej would use a card that wasn’t his. Some commenters, like @mona3lisaaa, noted the betrayal felt deeper because it came from someone close. Others, such as @_simplyr0ro, argued that exposing the conflict publicly was unnecessary and encouraged private resolution.
Rakai’s posts came a day after he mentioned dealing with personal matters following a court appearance on Tuesday, November 3. He did not specify the case but addressed it on X, writing, “Y’all, I dead been taking care of real life shi. I just left court, and I have to take care of something else I can’t speak on. Pls be patient.” The court proceedings referenced by social media users concern a widely publicized case involving Reggie and Kai Cenat, in which Reggie accused Kai Cenat of grooming Rakai.
There has been no public statement linking Rakai’s allegations against 2xCeej to the court case, but the timing adds complexity to ongoing discussions among supporters and fans.
2xCeej, who was once considered a close friend and “day 1” companion by Rakai, has not responded to public inquiries beyond the apology video shared by Rakai. The specific financial details and amounts allegedly taken have not been disclosed.
The incident reveals tensions behind the scenes in the streaming community and raises questions about trust and accountability among collaborators who often share both personal and professional lives.
