Kick Streamer Vitaly Zdorovetskiy Addresses Racism Allegations Following Controversial Quavo Comments.
Controversial Kick streamer Vitaly Zdorovetskiy has found himself at the center of a heated debate following allegations of racism. During a livestream on the Stake-backed platform on July 29, 2024, Zdorovetskiy addressed the controversy surrounding his recent comments about American rapper and singer Quavo.

This isn’t the first time Vitaly Zdorovetskiy has faced backlash from the online community.
