Currently, KSI is the man dominating the internet. Why? Thanks to his song “Thick of It” featuring Trippie Redd. The song has garnered over 11 million views in just six days and over 160,000 comments on the official YouTube video. However, the song isn’t pulling in numbers because fans love it; they’re actually roasting KSI. Despite all the criticism, JJ recently revealed that rapper Drake, unlike everyone else, loves the song and even used it in his video.
Recently, KSI spoke to the Official Charts and was asked about his reaction when he saw Drake using his song on his Reel. JJ expressed his shock, saying it felt surreal to see his track featured by Drake, and called it a major moment. He admitted that he didn’t know at first and was caught off guard when people started messaging him, telling him about it. Waking up to that news left him in disbelief, and when he finally saw it for himself, he was amazed.
KSI added that after seeing the Reel, he reached out to Drake to thank him. In response, the “God’s Plan” rapper said he really liked the song and couldn’t resist sharing it with his followers, which is why he posted the Reel featuring the track.
In his words, “I messaged him saying ‘big up, thank you for using it,’ and he was like ‘yo, I had to, it gets the people going!’. That’s sick, he’s legit. I appreciate it.”
Many thought Drake was trolling KSI, but unlike most, he genuinely loved the song and praised KSI for it despite all the criticism. This kind of support will definitely motivate him to create more music and push toward his dream of collaborating with Billie Eilish.

In his words, “It would be really cool to do a song with Billie Eilish. Yeah, I mean, that’d be really dope.”
KSI has been in the music game for a while, putting out diss tracks with the Sidemen, solo songs, and full albums. During these years, he has collaborated with artists like Offset, Trippie Redd, Lil Baby, Anne-Marie, and Craig David. After these big names, it won’t be surprising if fans see him collaborating with Eilish, considering he also has Drake’s seal of approval.
