‘Release the votes’: B Lou questions Streamer Awards as QTCinderella reveals winning margin
Felix “xQc” Lengyel had a blunt response to Daryl “DDG”’s idea of starting a BET-style award show for streamers after the 2026 Streamer Awards. During his November 13 livestream, xQc reviewed reactions to the ceremony and questioned why DDG linked his four losses to the need for a separate award show. He pointed out that Black creators, including Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed, won several awards. xQc then suggested that DDG’s results might be a “skill issue,” while making it clear that he respected his streams and music.
DDG Goes 0 for 4 at the Streamer Awards 2026 and Talks About His Own Award Show
DDG had two nominations at the November 12 ceremony, but neither resulted in a win. He was nominated for Best Music Streamer and Best Marathon Stream for his Hit-A-Thon series. However, AriAtHome won the music category, while Jynxzi, Stable Ronaldo and LosPollosTV took the marathon award for their Chained Together stream.This meant DDG finished the ceremony without a trophy across his four nominations in the Streamer Awards so far. He later went live on Twitch to talk about the result. Although he said he enjoyed the event and praised its organizer QTCinderella, he also admitted that he did not plan to attend another ceremony.DDG said:”Shoutout to QT, still an amazing event. Even though I’m 0 for 4. I’m not gonna sit here and swear up and down that I ain’t finna go to no more Streamer Awards. I think it’s a dope event. I think it’s cool; we don’t have anything else. One thing I did gain from this is that… It inspired me to do my own award show.”He then explained what kind of show he had in mind. DDG said he did not want to turn the idea into a race issue, but felt there was room for an award show focused mainly on Black streamers.”I think it needs to be an award show that’s, like, primarily for… and I don’t wanna make it a race thing at all… but I think, like, a BET type of thing for streamers, I think that’ll be dope.”
xQc Says DDG Has a “Skill Issue” as B Lou
Also Questions the Streamer Awards Results
xQc did not agree with DDG’s suggestion. While reacting to the comments, he brought up other Black creators who won awards at the same ceremony. He specifically mentioned IShowSpeed and Kai Cenat, arguing that their success showed that Black streamers were already receiving recognition at the event.xQc said:”Okay, well, Black creators are dominating a bunch of other categories… Buddy, you say you don’t wanna make it about race, but you make it about race? The other black creators are winning other categories. So maybe it’s more about… Perhaps it’s maybe a skill issue? Respect, respect, I like the streams. I like the music. I like the energy. I like all that… But, yeah, the folks are going hard.”Meanwhile, DDG was not the only creator unhappy with the results. B Lou also questioned the voting after losing the Best Stream Duo award with his longtime collaborator Zias. Katie B and VanillaMace won the category ahead of them.B Lou took to X and called the result rigged. He also asked QTCinderella to share the voting numbers and suggested that creators needed a separate community award show.He wrote:”RIGGED. ***** how much more rigged can this **** get?? Release the votes. WE NEED A W/L COMMUNITY AWARD SHOW.”
