A viral moment from ComplexCon 2025 in Los Angeles has taken over the internet, and it all started with Ray Lee, better known as rayasianboy, calling out DJ Akademiks in front of a stunned crowd. What began as a casual conversation quickly turned into a now-famous exchange involving two of Twitch’s biggest streamers, Kai Cenat and xQc, and one unexpected line that broke the internet.
Ray Lee lashes out at DJ Akademiks at ComplexCon 2025 when asked about Kai Cenat and xQc's beefOn October 26, 2025, Ray Lee was approached by DJ Akademiks (Livingston Allen) during a public segment at ComplexCon, where creators were casually meeting fans. Things seemed friendly until Akademiks started “pocket watching” Ray and brought up the ongoing beef between Kai Cenat and xQc.
That’s when Ray’s calm tone flipped. Looking Akademiks straight in the eye, he asked, “Why do you tryna be messy all the time?” When Akademiks tried to twist the question, Ray doubled down, saying, “B*tch, you messy.”*
The crowd immediately erupted in laughter as Ray followed up with, “I know what you’re trying to do. You’re trying to make me say some crazy sh*t.”
Within minutes, the moment spread like wildfire. Clips flooded TikTok, Instagram, and X (Twitter), with fans calling it the boldest and funniest moment of the entire ComplexCon weekend.
Later that evening, Akademiks laughed off the exchange during his stream, telling viewers he was “just chilling.” But by then, the internet had already decided that Ray Lee had won the moment.
What is the beef between Kai Cenat and xQc that set off this viral confrontation?The question that sparked Ray Lee’s reaction traces back to one of Twitch’s biggest rivalries in recent months: Kai Cenat vs. xQc.
The tension began when Canadian streamer xQc (Félix Lengyel) made controversial comments about Kai’s success during a Fortnite stream. When viewers joked about donating subs, xQc quipped, “The Kai Cenat strat, wow, really, dude?” before adding, “When does he not [beg for subs]?”
Fans of xQc defended it as a harmless joke. But Kai’s supporters saw it as an insult, especially since Kai had recently broken Twitch records, earning over 728,000 subscribers during Mafiathon 2, doubling xQc’s count.
Kai responded emotionally in a Just Chatting stream, accusing xQc of hypocrisy and disrespect. He reminded viewers that xQc once supported his content, even donating during Kai’s viral Elden Ring stream. Still, the “crying for subs” remark crossed a line.
As of now, xQc hasn’t responded, but fans are split down the middle. Some say xQc was “just being xQc.” Others think Kai had every right to call him out. Either way, it’s one of Twitch’s most-watched dramas, and the reason Akademiks’ question hit such a nerve with Ray Lee.
