KSI finally released his long-awaited documentary “KSI: In Real Life” on Amazon Prime on January 26, 2023. But what many may think of as a hilarious story of his life, turns out to be a really hard-hitting, true, and emotional journey of a Nigerian boy who immigrated to the UK with his parents, becoming one of the biggest YouTubers in his country.

This trip into his life grew even more heartbreaking when KSI’s father made a comment in the documentary that made the stakes of his YouTubing success much more crucial to him. And the reason for this is that his parents stated that they did not want a kid like KSI.
