KSI, whose real name is Olajide Olatunji, quits the YouTube collective Sidemen after 13 years, according to multiple reports. He says he has been “pulled in a lot more directions” in recent years and that he feels he has been “running at full speed” with growing commitments. The BBC reports that KSI has been part of the Sidemen group since 2013. NME also links the decision to his increased workload and the pressures of taking on more projects. Both outlets frame the departure as a personal choice rather than attributing it to a specific dispute or external trigger. The Sidemen collective remains active without KSI, but details about his next plans and whether other members will change their involvement are not provided in the reports. The announcement marks the end of his long-running role within the group, which he helped build over more than a decade of online content.
