- This is part of a brand new series for this channel called "Minutes With...".
In each episode we'll sit down and talk to someone who has an interesting story to tell.
In this episode we talk to British TH-camr/Musician/Boxer @KSI. JJ walks us through his journey from starting his first TH-cam channel right up to the present day where he's releasing music with Craig David. We also learn about what life was like behind the scenes for this young entertainer and how everything changed for him in 2017. @JJ Olatunji has had an incredibly varied career from fighting Joe Weller and Logan Paul (and fighting online with his brother Jake Paul) to becoming a media empire and releasing top ten music tracks. This is a wide ranging interview with an incredibly interesting individual.
KSI’s single ‘Really Love’ ft. Craig David and Digital Farm Animals is out now.

Thanks 😊, awesome interview
Hk
I was thinking his voice sounded kinda weird, then I realised he was talking at an acceptable volume lol
Same lol
feels weird not having my eardrums being blown out when watching a ksi video
Dude u funny 😄
Bout he is a introvert🤣🤣
Lmao facts
We make fun of him, but he's a really humble and genuine person, and seeing him grow is great.
@Jaleel Og I feel like a few of the American dons would handle it well like imdontai or berleezy
yup, been watching this guy since 2013 and i really cant do anything but be so overly proud of him that sometimes when he expresses all his new milestones i kinda get a bit teary-eyed, knowing that ive been so lucky to watch and support this guy all the way through his impeccable journey.

At first I thought he was really arrogant and has a big ego and after watching him for the last 6 months I still think he is arrogant and has a big ego but I love him
This is my 🐐. There is not a person alive that inspires me more than him and I don't think there ever will be.
ME TOO MAN HES A GOAT 🐐
Reading this, I imagine you collabing with him in the future
You literally transformed my thoughts into a banging ass comment. I hope I meet this man one day, and tell him all about how much he meant to me growing up, and how much he inspires me as a person.
I love him bro so humble and inspirational, people can say what they want about him but he proved so many people wrong and got so far by just pushing the boundaries.
bcs we actually saw his progress thats why we proud of him

KSI was such a big part of my childhood and teenage years, and I’m still a big fan today. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t find him inspirational, to see how he’s grown and proved people wrong time and time again, it’s something I can relate too. JJ is the greatest TH-camr of all time, hands down.
yup, couldnt agree with u more, been watching this guy since 2013 and i really cant do anything but be so overly proud of him that sometimes when he expresses all his new milestones i kinda get a bit teary-eyed, knowing that ive been so lucky to watch and support this guy all the way through his impeccable journey
Agree.
@@notnova1 same man but you know it is kinda overhyped, if you look at my playlists you can easily tell my idol is Mike Tyson because he’s had resistance and something to overcome. him and his trainer and adoptive father, Cus D’Amato is literally the inspiration for rocky. Ksi hasn’t really proved anyone wrong everyone knew he would beat Logan and Joe Weller and he hasn’t had anything to overcome really in his fights.
@@Joshua-jd1de ksi hasn't proved anything?!! Mate he was a nerd back then he was just a gamer and when the joe weller fight happened everyone was like you can never beat joe he is very big he is an athlete while you are a gamer he proved that wrong to the whole world and with music at first people made fun of him they always said that his music career is dead and he will never be good at music and again he proved everyone wrong
@@muhammadabdullah4871 joe Weller isn’t big at all, he’s 5’7 has a tiny frame, and KSI is 6 feet. What are you on about? Everyone knew KSI would beat joe Weller and Logan Paul. And big deal he proved to people that he can make DECENT music
Such a sound geezer, fair play to him and wish him all the best.

Man, KSI man, truly truly really such an inspiration. Look what he's doing in life he's an absolute legend. His mindset hardwork personality and overall humbleness just everything about him is legendary!! Hes not like any other successful person. Bieng a youtuber you can really see his personality. You can joke with him. Interact with him, more connected then any other mainstream famous person. And I like that the most that I feel closer to the person I idol. Love you KSI❤️

The problem with either of the Paul brothers is everytime there is a camera, you get the act. You get the persona. You will never know what they are behind closed doors as they will never show it

On camera he is a persona, a character. But this is the real JJ, how he would be IRL, without the camera's

AYE WHO CAME FROM HIS STORY
Me lol

Wassup 😂
It was on my recomended
🙋🏽♂️
From watching this guy in 2012 when I was in year 7, been a huge supporter to him. To then seeing him topping charts in the music history, creating history in the TH-cam scene with boxing, having one of the biggest fanbase in the world. JJ has honestly shown passion and love to people and inspired so many people to do what they love no matter what. I have mad respect and love for this Legend. Proud of you JJ!👌
More humbling to hear that he just enjoyed making vids and never thought he would be in the position he's in just shows anything is possible
I dont care what anybody says, KSI is as humble as they come. What an inspiration, a man of his word and hes also got a brilliant mindset for anything that comes his way.
What a man. Props to you JJ. I’ve seen you grow and i feel like I’ve grown with you
It’s seriously amazing to see how far he’s come. I’m so proud of him 🤩
I'm soo happy on far he has come. He's a true inspiration.
Protect this man at all costs. I mean it. We’ve lost too many legends in the past year
Amen 🙏🏾
Kinda brings tears into your eyes when u started watching him back in the days and seeing how far he has come now.
Remember this:
everyone starts from somewhere. look your idols aren't magically famous. If they can do it I believe you can do it. You will do it :)))
Yeah, your right.. They sell their souls, so they do start somewhere and so can you.

@@j4ret221 why do ppl always think everybody sold they soul? cant SOME ppl work hard?

Watched this lad from the start mad to see how far he has come, 100% deserves everything he’s worked for!
Our FatNeek always doing us proud
It's honestly mad to see how far jj has come we might make fun of him and make jokes but in all seriousness we would never have expected him to come this far and be in the position he is in today we love you JJ
Started watching JJ back when he was doing Fifa Funnies videos. Great respect for what he built, and the loyalty he has with his friends.
It's unreal what he has achieved! Iv got nothing but admiration for the guy. Big respect KSI keep it rolling brother👊
Anyone who says Jake Paul's a tw*t is definitely a friend of mine, never liked KSI before this video, great to see an honest and humble guy. peace KSI.
You should watch some of his interviews or when he got invited to a podcast called "Happy Hour". I'll link a video:th-cam.com/video/pfNkiujruG8/w-d-xo.html
Its a good watch because this video was made by someone that hated KSI before.
It is kinda sad when neutral people get to judge someone just for being related to someone that you dislike, or to his mistakes.
Wtf are you ok
This man is an absolute legend I’m so happy for him.
This is my 🐐 on TH-cam! I have been a fan of him since the early start of his TH-cam career and I am SO proud of JJ man. He is such an inspiration to me and is that little bit of my day that makes me forget about depression.
You deserve everything you have got!
I love you JJ
JJ is sitting on top of the mountain because of his pure hard work and determination. Nobody can take that away from him. When it comes to GOAT of TH-cam, he is definitely in the mix. This man raised the bar for the whole TH-cam community multiple times. Absolute legend. We are so proud and happy for you JJ. Now back to reddit my G!
Ksi is impossible to dislike such a genuine down to earth bloke

Idk but I felt it you worked so hard helped many who doesn’t know yet what you did for them
all the very best of luck for upcoming albums #KingTheNightmareKSI
KSI is so humble and down to earth,a true inspiration 👏👏👏
Lol I love how he says he will never be friends with Logan but look at them now ahahah
Bro you’re such an inspiration! I do karate and want to eventually do amateur boxing when this whole pandemic is over. I am also currently getting into the music scene. I want to thrive with hard work just like you man! I promise one day I’ll make a collab with you my guy!
Ima screenshot this to show you in the future
18 now and grew up watching JJ seeing his growth acc makes me so proud.
nah jj u have amde all of use so so happy and now seeing you make vidose reddit on question go everything is the best thing ever STAY STRONG JJ!!!!
I REALLY like how he didn't want to call his state of mind at that time a depression.
Because I feel like a lot of people use that term too loosely, while not realizing what an actual depression really is. Just being unhappy for a while doesn't mean you're depressed most of the time. An actual depression is like a life long curse, a dark cloud, you carry with you. You can learn to live with it, you can take medication and go to therapy, but the depression will always be with you and you have to work hard to keep it at bay. An actual depression is something non-depressed people struggle to understand.
Yea I do that aswell because I feel it is disrespectful. As someone with autism I hate it when people describe one minor thing as autistic.
@@samalass466 yeah totally get it. I had this classmate that always kept telling me that she was autistic because she's a perfectionist. Truly ignorant.
Saying that you can think you don't have depression or be told you don't have it but the thing that caused it stays around you all your life.
You can go through a depressive period, whilst not being depressed.
He's come so far man, so proud of him
Proud to say I've been a supporter since day 1, and to see the heights he's reached. KSI is truly a legend 🙌🏻
It's so great to see how well he's done for himself. From watching the race to division 1 vids, to where he is now. Well done! 👏👏
Its crazy how alot of these singers left youtube to do music respect for jj for not leaving youtube and doing music and hes humble respect man 15,000 respect gained
On screen hes just so funny, and in person hes so humble and so down to earth and such a nice person I dont understand how he gets hate.
I mean when you do youtube for so long and being so succesful for so long obviously you are gonna get hate from jelouse people not matter what you do.
Your videos got me thru a lot my man, thanks for lighting up the world with your humour 💯
I remember fifa and Q&A Ksi it’s so crazy how far he’s come and how long we’ve all been watching him grow couldn’t be more prouder!
U gotta love how he has changed through the years and the same with the whole group

@@t21swordz37 yup true
Throughout this video...I remembered the first time I ever clicked on a ksi video..and it hit me hard... I've been following him since i was in my mid teens.. he's truly an inspiration man! One day I'll meet him and tell him i love him🙏❤️much respect
the questions asked are excellent, props to whoever wrote them
He is a GOAT. Really proud of him. He has accomplished a lot. Respect.
He was right, it is really interesting what hardwork can do for you....He put work into youtube and is now one of the top youtubers. He put work into youtube rapping and is now one of the top at it, and is now a mainstream rapper, working with a lot of big name people. And he is also the TH-cam boxing champion, The dude's come so far, but still remains humble and entertains his audience.....he is the example of hardwork
This man can smile through anything thats why he is a legend
Wow. Very genuine video!! Good luck, KSI
Sad that he gets such a bad rep, he’s genuinely a good guy.. I hope he continues to climb high an high in his career
I love JJ, but it’s sad to hear he’ll never be true friend with Joe, they well like so good friends back in the day
i know man, if they became friends again after all their issues that would be mental
Joe's a spiteful, untrustworthy person.
Joe Weller took things too far. He tried to get Jj cancelled, literally attempted to ruin his career. This is something deep to over come.
@@noribu6941 But JJ was also hating on Joe, and it wasn’t because of that
His mindset is truly inspiring... If he wants it he gets it. Jj is a real guy and if you think like him your going to get far...
aside from the memes jj is a really genuine guy he deserves everything and is just a great inspiration for a lot of people including me
whos here after prime has launched and JJ and logan are best mates
This man now has a company with Logan. Crazy to see how things and opinions can change
One of the greatest youtubers!!!! He deserve everything he had
JJ has always been a person i look up to, he really deserves more credit 🙌🏾
