A comedic twist in the world of streaming ensues as Joe Budden’s son, Trey, boldly applies for a spot in Kai Cenat’s upcoming Streamer University! This initiative is designed for aspiring streamers and is set to return in 2026 for its second edition, and Trey is eager to join this vibrant learning community.
Trey Budden, the son of podcast host and rapper Joe Budden, is throwing his hat into the ring by submitting his application for the highly anticipated next edition of Kai Cenat’s Streamer University. This program is generating excitement and is scheduled to kick off next year, although the exact starting date is yet to be confirmed. The announcement of Streamer University’s return came to light during the first day of Mafiathon 3, much to the delight of fans, as reported by Sportskeeda.
"Yes, you heard that right! The much-loved Streamer University 2026 is back in the pipeline. It’s a place where future streamers can pursue majors in chat studies while minoring in the fine art of nodding off mid-stream! Rumors suggest that students might even graduate with a cap equipped with headphones and a complimentary Prime Sub. If you’re dreaming of being part of this legendary institution, now’s the time to ramp up your content creation efforts, as the application process appears to be in full swing!"
In a humorous video, Trey counts down from three before passionately explaining why he feels he should be accepted at Streamer University. "I believe my application deserves consideration because I’m fun, charismatic, and have a solid work ethic..." However, his friend, who is also his sound engineer, amusingly interrupts him to share a joke. "We’ve been working together, making music! We’ve tried recording this about 40 times," Trey acknowledges, adding a layer of humor to his pitch.
He finishes his application with an invitation for Kai to take his positive energy into account, alongside the fact that he’s wearing a formal tie. Some commenters from XXL had mixed reactions to his light-hearted approach, suggesting that Trey’s peculiar brand of humor may not resonate with everyone.
"Someone reach out to @kaicenat for me," he cheekily added as the caption to his submission, showcasing his playful personality.
In another interesting development surrounding Joe Budden’s podcast, it appears there may have been a change in his team, as Melyssa Ford has seemingly stepped away from her role on the show. The exact circumstances behind her absence remain murky, with no statements from either Ford or Budden clarifying the situation.
The dynamic between the two has been strained recently, especially after Drake made a pointed jab at Joe during his track "$ome $exy $ongs 4 U" while simultaneously giving a shout-out to Ford. Despite this mixed message, Ford was seen reveling in the attention, raising eyebrows about her professional relationships.
