UK YouTuber KSI Faces Mixed Reactions Over New Song Snippet

KSI, a popular YouTuber, Sidemen member, and rapper, has been at the center of a recent controversy. The creator faced backlash after being accused of launching a series of tirades against DanTDM, a fellow YouTuber, following DanTDM’s criticism of Lunchly, a pre-cooked box meal created by KSI, MrBeast, and Logan Paul. However, the online frenzy doesn’t end there.

KSI has now shared a snippet of his upcoming song with Trippie Redd, titled "Thick Of It." The popular X.com account FearBuck shared the snippet, which garnered several reactions online. Some users panned the song, with one quipping, "Who listens to this?" Another user joked, "WHO LET THIS NI**A THINK HE MADE GOOD MUSIC???."

Not all comments were negative, however. One user praised KSI’s vocals, saying, "He has shades of SPECIAL." Another fan wrote, "I can’t wait to hear the rest of this song, the tone sounds so good bro."

KSI’s music career has been diverse, spanning over a decade. He started on YouTube in 2009 and has gained experience in content creation, boxing, and music. His early songs were known for their high-energy beats and humorous lyrics, with his 2013 single "Lamborghini" remaining a fan favorite to this day.

In 2017, KSI showcased a different side of his musical talents during a heated exchange of diss tracks with fellow Sidemen members. His most popular track from this period was "Little Boy," which was aimed at Harry "W2S."

KSI has released two studio albums to date – "Dissimulation" in 2020 and "All Over the Place" in 2021. Both albums sold over 100,000 copies and charted in the UK at number 2 and 1, respectively. The YouTuber is set to release two new singles in the coming days, including "Thick Of It" featuring Trippie Redd and a second single titled "Low."

While KSI’s music has had its fair share of detractors, his dedicated fan base remains enthusiastic about his upcoming releases.
