KSI vs Deji: Family Feud, Diss Tracks, Abuse Allegations and Reconciliation
KSI and his younger brother Deji were long-time collaborators who publicly presented themselves as a family team, including on the 2018 KSI vs Logan Paul boxing card. Their feud grew out of Deji's November 2018 dispute with KSI's friend Randolph. After Randolph joked that Deji's YouTube channel was dead, the two exchanged diss tracks. Deji's RAN displayed private banking information belonging to KSI while attempting to show that KSI had financially supported Randolph. KSI objected, and Deji interpreted KSI's criticism as proof that he prioritized friends over family. The brothers blocked and criticized one another publicly, Deji released my brother KSI, KSI attempted a conciliatory response and Deji then released the KSI diss track Unforgivable. Deji also discussed the family conflict on Logan Paul's Impaulsive. A Christmas Day attempt to resolve the dispute ended in another confrontation at the family home, with both brothers giving competing accounts. Deji apologized in January 2019 and made Unforgivable private, but reopened the dispute in May. In bye, Deji made his most serious allegations, accusing KSI of years of mental and physical mistreatment and describing severe emotional distress. KSI disputed most of those claims in the eighty-minute Ending it all while apologizing for several specific actions. Public declarations that the feud was over in June 2019 did not fully hold, and KSI was still describing the relationship as unresolved in May 2020. Deji gave a more reflective apology in December 2020. On June 20, 2021, the brothers appeared together in Reunion With My Brother, openly discussed their history and presented the feud as resolved, with Deji acknowledging significant fault in the original falling out. KSI said in 2023 that they were still repairing the relationship but were in a much better place. Joint media appearances and collaborations continued through 2025 and 2026, providing strong evidence that the old feud remained resolved.
