Kevin Gates loses his cool after a prank by YouTuber Wayon at a mall. Here’s how it unfolded:
- Wayon spots Gates shopping and decides to prank him.
- He approaches Gates with a camera, calling him out by name.
- A crude joke by Wayon pushes the rapper over the edge.
- Gates responds with a punch, leaving Wayon in shock.
Kevin Gates wasn’t in the mood for jokes when YouTube prankster Wayon approached him at Westfield Topanga Mall. Wayon, spotting Gates shopping, decided to film a prank.
With his camera rolling, Wayon walked up to Gates and said, ‘You look like Kevin Gates. That is Kevin Gates!’ Gates, clearly unamused, replied, ‘Look, stop playing with me, bro. Get the fuck out the door,’ and began to usher Wayon towards the exit.
Wayon apologized but moments later made an explicit request, asking Gates to say, ‘dick in that pussy’ for him. This crude remark proved too much for Gates.
In response, Gates hit Wayon on the back of the head and casually walked away. Shocked, Wayon exclaimed, ‘Ahhh, Kevin Gates! What the fuck, Kevin Gates?! Come on, man. Ow, that hurt. What the heck, Kevin? I didn’t appreciate that, Kevin. That hurt a lot.’
Wayon added, ‘Kevin Gates just assaulted me. Damn, ouch. N-gga, I just got punched by Kevin Gates. That’s lowkey a dub.’
Meanwhile, other celebrities have had different reactions to pranksters. Flavor Flav took a prank from Gerard Huston in stride, jokingly claiming to be Lil Boosie’s father amidst laughter.
However, not all pranks are received well. E-40 was far from amused when mistaken for Fat Joe by Huston, snapping back at the prankster and telling him to ‘do your homework.’
Gates has yet to comment on the incident, but the encounter has left fans buzzing.
