Last week, KSI retained his newfound fame in the UK charts with his new release of Patience, collaborating with Yungblud and Polo G...
We all know KSI from everyone’s favourite YouTube group, the Sidemen. However, over the last few years, his fame has grown after that boxing triumph against Logan Paul, and now we are recognising him as a recording artist.
This new single with Yungblud and Polo G gives us a different sound from KSI, as in this song we do not actually hear him rap but hear him sing. I must say, I am a fan of his normal singing voice and this song. I will admit, I only know a few of KSI’s past songs, but this is definitely my favourite out of the ones I have heard.
Its catchy tune and tempo make it a hit that could not only be a great song to hear on the radio but also the clubs (when they eventually open again), it is definitely one you will be able to jump to and sing along to. The chorus in particular, which features more lyrics from Yungblud is definitely the catchiest, and even after only listening to a few times, you will become familiar with the lyrics.
Looking at Genius Lyrics, it was interesting to look behind some of the meaning behind the song as “I need a little bit of patience/’Cause we been goin’ through changes”, I didn’t realise these were a reference to the pandemic. It shows us how much our lives have changed in a year, and we need to be patience because things will be great again! I feel like knowing this definitely makes me feel more upbeat and optimistic when listening to this song now.
Ultimately, this was a new release I am a fan of at the moment, and the combination of KSI and Yungblud together is something I am a fan of.
