Ahead of his debut album dropping in May this year, YouTube superstar KSI has released a new single Houdini which features UK rappers Swarmz and Tion Wayne. Check it out below;
Houdini comes after a string of popular releases which feature high-profile artists such as Rick Ross, Lil Pump, Trippie Redd and Lil Baby. These have also found him chart success with two of the three placing in the top 20.

Love him or loathe him, you can’t deny KSI isn’t going from strength to strength right now. Still riding high on a wave of success from the groundbreaking boxing match with Logan Paul, KSI (real name Olajide Olatunji) has chart success in his sights.
Though his previous EP’s have not been received the best critically, you can’t deny that this is all very impressive from someone who started recording FIFA videos in his room. The singles have grown on me, finding myself growing to like them more and more with every listen.
Despite all this new found success, people still found it hard to take the YouTuber turned musician seriously. This all changed earlier this year when he was booked to play high profile festivals such as Reading and Leeds and Parklife. I’m sure he’ll be just as disappointed as we are that they’ll be postponed to next year.
The next few years are looking bright for KSI with his YouTube figures not looking like slowing down and his music going from strength to strength, the sky’s the limit. All this from FIFA, who’d have thought it?
