Drake officially quits Kick, ending his gambling streams

Drake has stepped away from the streaming platform Kick, leaving fans in confusion with his account’s sudden disappearance after years of regular streaming of his gambling sessions and gambling nights.

Many noticed that searching for Drake’s page now leads to a “channel not found” error. The rapper was one of Kick’s biggest names, and his streams often drew huge audiences, partly because of his connection to Stake, the online gambling site connected to Kick. Drake’s betting wins and losses became viral moments, fuelling the infamous “Drake curse” among fans.

Earlier, in June 2025, Drake shared an Instagram story and showed the other side of gambling, citing his loss of $8 million in just one month.

Popular streamer Adin Ross, who often appeared with Drake on Kick, said the rapper no longer plans to stream. According to Ross, Drake told him directly that he’s done, aside from possible appearances in Brand Risk events or future collabs with Ross himself.

The decision comes shortly after Drake voiced frustration with Stake’s founder, Ed Craven. He accused Craven of disrespecting his fans and complained that streamers were never allowed to properly use affiliate links, despite helping to build Kick’s popularity.

Drake’s sudden exit left many people in shock, especially his influence on Kick’s growth. For now, fans won’t be seeing Drake’s gambling adventures live on Kick anymore.
