Rapper Quavo is facing allegations of taking a $300,000 deposit from popular streamer Vitaly and failing to appear on his "Catch a Child Predator" series. According to Vitaly, the former Migos member was scheduled to participate in the 10-night takedown series but never showed up. “So, Quavo is not coming,” Vitaly said. “He’s not coming. He took our deposit right? Yep, of course.”

The incident has sparked significant discussion on social media, with reactions divided. One user on X (formerly Twitter) criticized Vitaly's remark, “Black people thing,” calling it racist. The user wrote, “Glad Quavo didn’t show up prolly realized Vitaly a racist who hides in the closet. Could’ve called Quavo ignorant or something else but blamed all black people calling it black people is insane.” Another user commented on the situation, saying, “Bro these streamers really think rappers wanna come act like retards on their stream so bad lmfao of course they gettin scammed.”

Despite the controversy, Vitaly does not appear overly concerned. He has already featured several other celebrities, including Tee Grizzley, Ty Dolla $ign, SteveWillDoIt, and Bobby Shmurder, in his series.

Quavo has not confirmed or denied the allegations. Recently, he has been showcasing his bartending skills, sharing a video of himself making a drink called “Huncho Season.” In the clip, Quavo mixes White X cognac, ice, and cranberry juice, rimming the glass with Lawry’s seasoning salt instead of Tajin, which drew attention on social media for its unique twist.

The details surrounding Quavo's absence from the stream remain unclear. The situation continues to unfold, and fans are waiting to see if Quavo will address the allegations.
