KSI, YouTube \/ Wikimedia CommonsYouTube star and music artist KSI has incurred the wrath of K-pop boyband BTS\u2019 fanbase, who seemingly took offense to his pleas for listeners to stop streaming his new album, Dissimulation. KSI\u2019s first-ever solo album, Dissimulation, dropped on May 22, featuring a slew of tracks with features from top names in the rap industry, including the Migos\u2019 Offset, Trippie Redd and even Jeremih. As a potential reward for getting his album to the top spot on the charts, KSI promised that he would shave his head completely bald \u2014 but it seems that the YouTuber is attempting to walk back his words, seemingly distraught at the thought of having to shave off three years of hair growth. KSI\u2019s Dissimulation wasn\u2019t the only one vying for first place, by far, with BTS\u2019 Suga dropping a solo mixed tape and The 1975 having also released a new album; but once KSI\u2019s threat of shaving his head went viral on Twitter, he saw his music overtake both groups in a shocking development. Panicked, the YouTuber took to social media to beg BTS\u2019 fanbase (who call themselves the \u2018Army\u2019) to push Suga\u2019s mixtape to the top \u2014 a feat he may have achieved with a unique strategy. \u201cThis is getting long now,\u201d KSI Tweeted. \u201cYou 1975 and Agust D fans ain\u2019t real fans smh. Please rile up your army and do better please.\u201d This is getting long now. You 1975 and Agust D fans aint real fans smh. Please rile up your army and do better please. pic.twitter.com\/KYekWX3IOd \u2014 ksi (@KSI) May 25, 2020 Needless to say, the British music star was instantly met with backlash from the Army, who were quick to roast him for his previous \u2018New Age\u2019 live tour. \u201cWhen you sell out Wembley stadium twice, then you can chat about \u2018real fans,\u2019\u201d one BTS fan wrote. \u201cTake a seat.\u201d when you sell out wembley stadium twice, then u can chat about \u2018real fans\u2019 take a seat ? \u2014 ???\u2077 ? (@peachychjm) May 25, 2020 \u201cCan this KSI s**t stop using BTS for clout?\u201d another chimed in. \u201cLike just go bald already no one gives a f**k, at least we don\u2019t stop posting about Yoongi.\u201d Can this ksi shit stop using BTS for clout?

For now, though, it seems like KSI is in the clear \u2014 but the war rages on between BTS stans and KSI\u2019s own fans and friends, who seem bent on him making good on his promise that has now become a meme across the YouTube scene.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why is the BTS Army feuding with KSI over his new album?
