Entheos’ Chaney Crabb Dropped One Hell of a Motivational Speech on Kai Cenat’s Livestream
I don’t know if you’re aware of this or not, but livestreamers carry a lot of fucking clout these days. Content creators like Kai Cenat, Amouranth, and Hasan Piker all generate millions upon millions of views just by sitting at their computer and providing various forms of entertainment. (If you know the names I listed, you know how very different they are.) They’re so big that major politicians and presidential hopefuls use their platforms to reach a wide audience.
Love him or hate him, Cenat has one of — if not the — biggest livestreams online these days, with an average of nearly 113,000 viewers and 14.3 million followers. That’s fucking bonkers. So it’s pretty sick to learn that Entheos vocalist Chaney Crabb landed on Kai Cenat’s livestream last night to hang out and perform one of the band’s songs live.
And while all that is cool to see, what really stood out to me was the way she signed off. Rather than give some pithy bullshit little statement, she put a message of positivity out there that not only needs to be said these days, but really helped put metal in a great light.
You can check out a clip of her speech over on Twitter, but we also transcribed her closing statement below. It’s great that she got to share such a positive moment with so many people last night. It’s good for metal in the long run, so hell yeah, Chaney! Thanks for doing all of us proud!
“So everyone out there I just want to say there was once a time when I was in a place where I wasn’t happy doing what I was doing I was denying myself of being a vocalist. I was lying to myself saying that I was like really stoked to be what I to be doing what I was doing and I like denied this entire part of my life and I know that a lot of you out there are probably in that place right now where you may be doing something that you’re not passionate about that your heart is not in. And I want to encourage all of you out there to find the thing that is meaningful in your heart.
“Find what you love and chase that shit. It’s going to take dedication. It’s going to take sacrifice. It’s going to take a lot of struggle. And you’re never really going to see where you’re at until you can step back and look at the full picture.
“But it’s worth it to chase your dreams you guys like it’s it’s the most fulfilling thing in the entire world and it doesn’t matter if your dream is weird like mine like being a metal vocalist. It’s like people will tell you that you can’t do it that you’re not going to make anything of yourself but believe me dreams come true.
“And if you just keep pushing to be the person that you want to be then that’s who you’re going to become point blank. So I hope that all of you out there can find something that you love as much as all of us love this genre metal like we look we wear black we look scary but dude we’re passionate that’s all that it is we’re good people just like you.
“We all should be friends support your community support each other support your friends and make something of your fucking life dude don’t live in regret that is what life is about.”
