#SiR Apologizes For Misogynist Kai Cenat Post
The Top Dawg Entertainment singer wrote a tweet to the popular streamer on Sunday (February 25) that said: “@KaiCenat a real one. Got a n-gga a whole new Bitch on Twitch [crying face emoji].”
His post came after Cenat hosted an online dating competition for a newly-single man who went viral when his now-ex-girlfriend engaged in some steamy dancing with Nigerian singer Omah Lay during a recent concert.
SiR later deleted the post, but not without catching flak on social media over his use of the word “bitch.”
“He is 37 talking like this @inglewoodSiR. 37,” one critic wrote on X, while another said: “Damn n-gga you forgot your target audience AND the fact you independent w an album otw.”
Someone else wrote: “This is not the same man who recorded ‘John Redcorn,’” referencing the singer’s tender ballad about being in love with the right person at the wrong time.
After the backlash, SiR issued an apology on X that read: “Let me start by saying I hear everyone, and I am sincerely sorry. Women deserve respect and I see using ‘bitch’ doesn’t do that.”
He added: “Please accept my apology and allowing me this teaching moment. With nothing but love, SiR.”

The controversy comes shortly after the release of SiR’s latest single, “Karma,” a collaboration with fellow TDE representative Isaiah Rashad.
It’s the second song from the Inglewood, California native’s upcoming album Heavy (out March 22) following “No Evil.”
In the video for that track, SiR pays tribute to D’Angelo by recreating the neo-soul singer’s iconic visuals for “Untitled (How Does It Feel).”
While showcasing his muscular physique in the video, he sings: “What’s your superpower?/ Show me what you’re made of/ I been lonely for days and days/ But we’re one and the same.”
Heavy serves as the crooner’s fourth studio album and first since 2019’s Chasing Summer, which boasted appearances from Kendrick Lamar, Lil Wayne, Jill Scott, Smino and Sabrina Claudio, among others.
The project marked a new commercial peak for SiR, reaching No. 64 on the Billboard 200.
