Career

History

Keem's first appearance on YouTube was in a Halo 3 YouTube video from 2009, where he was recorded through the online multiplayer voice-chat.[3] His first YouTube channel, 'xDJKEEMSTAR', was created in 2009, and dedicated to reporting on news within the YouTube community. In June 2014, he registered the channel 'DramaAlert'. Keem often offers his own opinions on subjects he reports on.[4][5][6]

Conflicts and controversies

In 2008, during an argument with a moderator named Alex on the website BattleCam.com, Keem encouraged his viewers to type 'Alex is a stupid nigger' in the stream's chat; he later apologized for using the racist slur.[7]

In January 2016, Keem posted a tweet directed at TotalBiscuit, a YouTuber who had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer, saying that he couldn't wait to report on his death.[8] Keem later apologized for the tweet.[7] TotalBiscuit died in May 2018.[9]

In May 2016, Ian Carter, known as IDubbbz, released a Content Cop on Keem, which has over 30 million views on YouTube as of May 2020. In the video, he accused Keem of threatening big YouTubers with negative coverage and promoting small channels or accusing them of hiding something. Carter called Keem a 'very rash decision maker' and showed clips of Keem saying what he called 'really regrettable shit'. In response, Keem called the Content Cop video 'entertaining' and denied wanting to attack other YouTubers, saying he has 'no problem booking guests or landing exclusive interviews'. He also apologized for the comments and incidents he caused, but 'justified' saying 'nigger' by (jokingly) using a genealogical DNA test to prove he is nine percent black.[10]

In January 2019, YouTuber Jake Paul accused Keem of body-shaming Paul's then-girlfriend, Erika Costell, after Keem made a tweet comparing her body to Eugenia Cooney, a YouTuber with an eating disorder.[11][12]

In June 2019, after YouTuber Etika committed suicide, several Twitter users blamed Keem for 'egging on' the YouTuber, with much of the criticism founded in an interview earlier that year where Keem said 'If you really think about it, then why live? Just jump off a cliff. If it's just a simulation, who cares?' in response to Etika talking about how he believed he lived in a simulation.[13][14] Etika also mentioned Keem in his last video titled 'I'm sorry', saying, 'Keemstar, I wish you the best my nigga'.[15] Keem refuted these claims in a series of Tweets, claiming people were using him as a scapegoat and that nobody was talking about tweets in which he was concerned for him. He went on to say that he thought Etika's mental health issues were a publicity stunt, due to him seeming fine and wanting to guest star on DramaAlert.[16][17] Etika's mother defended Keem by texting him afterwards, stating he was not to blame for Etika's suicide and that he loved Keem and his show.[18][19]

In May 2020, YouTuber Ethan Klein released a video exposé about Keemstar, which resulted in G Fuel ending their sponsorship with him.[20]
