Tylil James Using Racial Slurs Against Asians

During Kai Cenat’s Mafiathon 2 subathon, Tylil James featured as a recurring guest during his live streams. On the 18th day, Kai, along with Tylil, Rayasianboy, and Rakai, noticed that he was receiving 25 gifted subscribers from a user named after Jaylin Williams, an NBA player. To which Kai said,

“Wait NBA Player? Jaylin Williams? OKC? Nah, if that’s Jaylin Williams, gift a 100 gifted right now.”

Moreover, Tylil James claimed that Jaylin would have enough to give Kai 100 gifted subscribers, during which he also talked about the player’s profile and used slurs to describe his eyes. Their aim was to get the Twitch user to get Kai 100 gifted subscribers by using reverse psychology, but instead it ended up differently.

Later, Kai also confirmed that the Twitch user was in fact not the NBA player in question.
