Losing was KSI of death
Nelson makes waves
IF KSI had lost his legendary boxing match with fellow Youtuber Joe Weller, he thinks it would have spelled the end of his music work. The rapper won the celebrity bout in Las Vegas and told Grounded With Louis Theroux: “It was kind of scary because it’s like, if I lose I knew this was going to be detrimental to my whole career. “Everyone would have seen me like a loser and then I would have to change the type of music that I want to make.
“I make music to try and build people and make them feel powerful in themselves. “I knew I couldn’t lose – it would ruin everything that I’ve worked for. It was literally my whole legacy.”
It worked as KSI is No2 in the charts with his Dissimulation album.
