21 Savage has compensated Adin Ross after the rapper’s gambling earnings on the latter’s channel turned out to be dishonest.
On Friday (February 2), Kai Cenat went live and hopped on a phone call with his peer, who said that the controversy traces back to someone on the rapper’s team.

“[21 Savage] spoke to me last night on camera,” Ross told Cenat. “It was somebody around him that he said he should have cut off and shit, and I’m like, ‘Yeah,’ and he sent the money — he sent me $250K.
“We’re playing dice and cards, bro. Just don’t cheat.”

The Atlanta rapper allegedly tried to scam Ross for $120,000 over a high-stakes contest on the streamer’s Kick channel. Not long before the above phone call, the American Dream rapper was caught using what appeared to be marked cards after his opponent gambled $120,000 and lost.
When Ross noticed that he had been scammed while inspecting the cards they played with, 21 Savage denied having any prior knowledge of the markings.

Ross addressed the chat after showing the rap star the marked cards, saying: “Listen, I’ma be honest, chat, they’re not his cards. I know he’s not gonna do that to me.”
The two then shifted their focus and discussed how they should move forward, eventually agreeing to play each other at NBA 2K so that the streamer could have an opportunity to win back his money.
Soon after, social media users tried breaking down exactly how 21 Savage might have used marked cards to scam Adin. In a clip shared on Twitter, the British-American rapper could be seen opening a new pack of traditional red playing cards in front of the streamer.
However, when Adin wasn’t paying attention, he passed the cards to one of his friends in the background, who in turn passed back a deck of marked cards and pointed out exactly where the marked cards were in the mixed-up pile.

These details, of course, are speculation.
