British rapper, YouTuber, and boxer Ksi has apologized for using a slur for Pakistani and Southeast Asian people in a recent video, adding that he will “take a break from social media for a while.”
The incident occurred Sunday, April 2, with a video uploaded by the YouTube group Ksi helped found, called the Sidemen. The clip was a spoof of the long-running U.K. game show, Countdown, with the players tasked at one point with trying to form the longest word they could out of a random set of nine letters.

Ksi, the British YouTuber with more than 24M subscribers, has apologized and said he is taking a social media break after using a racial slur during his latest video.
Ksi has become known for being at the forefront of the YouTube boxing craze, but on Sunday evening appeared with his Sidemen friends in a video based on the UK game show Countdown.
In the letters and numbers game, players must create the longest word possible from a string of random vowels and consonants within a 30-second time limit.
Ksi, real name JJ Olatunji, created the word “p–i” from his selection of letters, an offensive abbreviation of Pakistan used to describe south Asians.
His Sidemen friends can be seen giggling at his word choice, but others were not amused after a clip Ksi’s slur went viral on Twitter, where users voiced outrage.
Nah @ksi you’re not funny man...
