The first time I met Olajide was on Youtube (duh) – back then I thought his FIFA commentaries were hilarious, I couldn’t help watching all of his videos on Youtube. Now Olajide Olatunji a British-born Nigerian also known as KSI, is a millionaire with his own penthouse apartment in London and he got it all from playing video games (Especially FIFA) in his bedroom.
According to Wikipedia, Olajide “JJ” Olatunji, better known by his YouTube username Ksiolajidebt, is an English YouTuber, video game commentator, comedian and rapper. He is also referred to as simply KSI.
Recently, In a new documentary series on e-sports, Vice reporter Matt Shea met with the young millionaire at his home. He had this to say – “Essentially, I’m a 21-year-old who’s a millionaire through gaming, vlogging, and my online experience,” KSI says on camera. “Yo, I’ll take it!”
He stopped making videos at first in 2006 when his account got banned for uploading family guy on youtube. It was only in 2010 that he started making videos again. He loved FIFA, and He loved doing skills (I mean really really really loved doing skills), which He thought was cool enough to show people on the Internet – and that was when it all started. His breakthrough with commentary came from him complaining about how slow defenders were in FIFA 11 and obliterating the FIFA 12 trailer to shreds with his sarcasm – now his videos have millions of views.
