KEEMSTAR calls out Deji’s fanbase following Twitter feud
KEEMSTAR, Twitter / Deji, YouTubeDrama Alert host Daniel ‘KEEMSTAR’ Keem is calling out the fanbase of popular YouTuber Deji Olatunji, after the two exchanged verbal blows in a brief Twitter feud on January 1.
KEEMSTAR uploaded a video to Twitter on January 2, where he addressed fans who were accusing him of milking Deji’s feud with his older brother, KSI, for views.
KEEMSTAR decried these claims, stating that he covered the story on Drama Alert due to the demands of his own fanbase, and reminded those critical of his coverage that he regularly discusses YouTube drama on the show – including the likes of Jake Paul, among other popular YouTubers.

“I’m a YouTuber, and people are subbing to my channel for content,” KEEM explained. “…they’re subbing to me because they want me to cover the story, so of course I’m going to continue to cover the story.”
He went on to encourage those who enjoy his coverage of Deji to like his Tweet, in an effort to showcase fan interest. Thus far, his Tweet has over 7,900 likes as of January 2.

KEEM’s latest callout follows his short spat with Deji the day prior, when Deji accused the host of directing hate toward his parents after they appeared in one of his videos, where they claimed that their home was being targeted and even vandalized by angry fans.
KEEMSTAR cautioned Deji to delete his Tweet, warning him that he would “fail miserably” if he attempted to create a video over the subject. Deji has yet to respond to KEEM’s video.
