KSI vows to return \u201cwith a vengeance\u201d after iShowSpeed beats him on Spotify YT: KSIBritish rapper KSI has vowed to come back for his \u201cthrone\u201d after seeing fellow YouTube star iShowSpeed surpass him in terms of monthly Spotify listeners in 2022. Despite originally starting as a FIFA YouTuber, KSI\u2019s expansion into the world of boxing and music has been incredible. The success of songs like \u2018Holiday\u2019 and \u2018Summer is Over\u2019 have seen the Brit transform into an acclaimed singer on top of his many other achievements. However, during a browse-through his subreddit, KSI was somewhat humbled when he found out that iShowSpeed actually boasts more listeners on Spotify. A post showed that the young American is approaching 5.2 million monthly listeners on the music platform, compared to KSI\u2019s 5.07 million. KSI promises to \u201ctake back\u201d his throne after iShowSpeed beat him on Spotify He stated that it must have been IShowSpeed\u2019s World Cup song that gave him a push and the subsequent momentum to overtake his fellow content creator. KSI also stated that he was not active on Spotify lately, contributing to his \u201cdethroning.\u201d He didn\u2019t make any excuses, and promptly agreed that iShowSpeed has beaten him \u201cmusically at least\u201d. Timestamp: 8:50 He did, though, promise to \u201ccome\u201d for iShowSpeed and regain his throne. \u201cIt is a marathon, not a sprint,\u201d he said. \u201cSpeed I\u2019m coming to take back my throne. You might be enjoying it right now, but best believe, next year I\u2019m back. I\u2019m gonna be releasing music. I\u2019m gonna be back and I\u2019m gonna be back with a vengeance.\u201d Despite the amicable nature of KSI\u2019s challenge, it\u2019s certainly good news for fans of his music. He was not particularly active musically this year, releasing just 3 songs this year not counting remixes and instrumental versions. iShowSpeed, on the other hand, has found himself on the end of considerable criticism after an interaction with a Chinese fan at the Qatar World Cup went viral. He did apologize after the event and \u201cpromised\u201d fans it was not intended in any derogatory way. The two have gone at one another previously, no more so than when iShowSpeed flattened KSI in the Sidemen\u2019s Charity match 2022. There appears to be another friendly rivalry brewing here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
