"Unlucky" - KSI pokes fun at Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed's viral song having fewer streams than his

On May 22, 2023, internet star Olajide "JJ," popularly known as "KSI," took to his personal YouTube channel to upload a new video. In one of the segments of the 15-minute feature, the content creator discussed popular streamers Kai Cenat and Darren "IShowSpeed's" recently released music video, Dogs. The former compared the statistics of his song, Easy, to those of the aforementioned song on Spotify.

When the Briton noticed that Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed's track had fewer streams than his, he poked fun at them by saying:

"Why have they only got 887,033 streams? Unlucky, guys. Well, be sure to keep streaming Dogs and my song as well!"

"I have more streams in a week" - KSI throws shade at Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed's song having fewer streams than his

At the 13-minute mark of his YouTube video, JJ decided to check out how Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed's recently released song was doing on Spotify. He then compared it to his own track, saying:

"I'm just saying, Easy is on what? 954,032 streams on Spotify. Let's see (IShow) Speed's new song with Kai Cenat. Let's have a look. (In a sarcastic tone) Oh, they have less streams. There's no way! Wait, but their song came out April the 27th! Bro, it's almost been out for a month, and I have more streams in a week. There is no way! I'm pretty sure the music video got views, though. Bro, 6.3 million views! That makes no sense."

After suggesting that the streamers were "unlucky" in not attracting Spotify streams, the 29-year-old personality apologized for being a "d*ck head":

"I don't know what I'm doing. I'm being a d*ck head. I'm sorry. I'm sorry!"

JJ went on to "blame" the content creators' fans for his sentiments, saying:

"I blame his f**king fans. You know...a lot of times, they're like, 'Oh, my god! Speed has more monthly listeners than KSI, and KSI is a full-time musician.' It's like...I've been boxing for a year plus, at this point. But anyway."
