Sidemen

Sidemen (or simply SDMN, formerly The Ultimate Sidemen) is a group of seven YouTubers who posts various vlogs and challenges. The group was created on October 19, 2013. The name is an allusion to a term to refer to those who are "behind the scenes" and are much less noticed than the main people. Originally, Simon was a "side-man" to JJ, and Tobi was a "side-man" to Josh.KSI: how the YouTube millionaire, who beat Logan Paul in a celebrity boxing rematch, made his name When the Sidemen channel was announced on May 16, 2016, the channel gained over 1 million subscribers within 3 days, making it the fastest channel to achieve this feat at the time.
The Sidemen are a group of friends who began playing video games online together in the early 2010s. As the decade progressed, they branched out into more varied content and created a commercial brand from their name. Since January 2018, they have uploaded weekly videos to their group channel under the banner of "Sidemen Sunday".SIDEMEN READ MEAN TWEETS
They created a second channel called MoreSidemen in 2018, which was originally used for compilations, but evolved into a channel where multiple videos are posted a week.https://www.youtube.com/@MoreSidemen In 2020, they made a third channel called SidemenReacts, where they exclusively post "reaction videos".https://www.youtube.com/@sidemenreacts In 2021, they created a fourth channel called SidemenShorts which utilises the YouTube Shorts section of the website.https://www.youtube.com/@SidemenShorts
==History==
In 2005 (aged 12–13), Miniminter became friends with KSI and would help him record videos for fun. The two eventually ended up connecting with Zerkaa in 2012, who was already long-term friends with TBJZL from secondary school.HOW THE SIDEMEN MET On Josh's 21st birthday in September 2013, the four were all in a voice hangout and Josh started watching a stream from Behzinga, whom he connected with and thus invited to the group. Ethan, Josh and Tobi would then play FIFA Pro Clubs everyday together, further cementing Ethan as part of the group.HOW THE SIDEMEN MET This initial group was nicknamed - by Simon - "The Original Five".HOW THE SIDEMEN MET Ethan coined the former official name of the group, 'The Ultimate Sidemen' which is an allusion to a term to refer to those who are "behind the scenes" in a group and are much less popular than the main members.HOW THE SIDEMEN MET Originally, Simon was a "sideman" to JJ while Tobi was a "sideman" to Josh.HOW THE SIDEMEN MET
They started recording and playing Grand Theft Auto V together over the following months. One day, YouTube had gone down (server issues) and Josh began talking to Vikkstar about it whilst in a Skype call with the rest, prompting him to add Vikkstar to the group call.HOW THE SIDEMEN MET He fit the group despite not being as invested in FIFA/football, however this was unimportant as it was just a friend group at the time. The Ultimate Sidemen - minus Wroetoshaw (W2S) - officially formed on 19 October 2013, after Ethan created the group on GTA following the release of Crews.HOW THE SIDEMEN MET In early 2014, after taking Harry 'under their wing' to protect him from a rogue 'friend' he had met as a result of his quick rise to fame (as well as his reckless purchases, i.e. a $5k red Gucci belt that night) they asked Harry to record with them and he too fit in and eventually became integrated.HOW THE SIDEMEN MET The Sidemen released a video on their second channel in 2019 explaining in detail how each member was added to the group and how the group was officially formed.HOW THE SIDEMEN MET British rapper JME allegedly played a key part in the group's formation behind the scenes, and is often referred to as the unofficial '8th Sidemen' by the Sidemen.Zerkaa on JME Being a Sidemen OG
In August 2017, KSI "left" the group (he claimed it was "because of Ethan", triggering events known as the "Sidemen War/Beef") which in turn prompted a series of diss tracks and online spats, the most popular of which being Harry's diss track on JJ and Ricegum, KSI Sucks. The majority of the "beef" was fabricated and was deemed by some as a ploy to gain more views/attention. In reality, JJ never actually left the group and the seven remained friends.Did the Sidemen split up? Drama explained
In 2018, the Sidemen launched a web television series for YouTube Originals called The Sidemen Show, after the creation of Sidemen Sundays directed huge amounts of views to the previously-stale channel, prompting YouTube to reconsider the Sidemen's proposal for a show, having originally declined it due to low views. It premiered in June 2018 to positive reviews and reactions. However, the group denied any intent to make further episodes due to the high costs involved.https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjkZIuJPz3rPW7CiiVlXoCQ5Ua1BXbUJJ
The Sidemen have a diverse fan base. As shown in vlogs made by individual Sidemen members, the majority of the fans that show up to events are young teenage males. A majority of their fanbase has grown up with the group and spent a large proportion of their teenage years watching the Sidemen's videos.
In the 2020s, the Sidemen cemented themselves as a commercial brand. The seven members are all directors for the main Sidemen companies (Sidemen Clothing Ltd., Sidemen Holdings Ltd., Sidemen Entertainment Ltd. and Sidemen Ventures Ltd.) with all these companies officially operating from their headquarters in Worthing, West Sussex.https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/09369821
As of 2024, the Sidemen have used their brand to create multiple businesses and and expand the ones they already own, such as; Side+, Sides, XIX Vodka, Sidemen Clothing, SideCards and Best.https://www.sidemen.com/
==About==
===Games===
All of the Sidemen are fans of association football and FIFA is the main game that is commonly associated with most them. Each member of the group has at least two YouTube channels; one for FIFA and "real life" videos and one for other games such as Grand Theft Auto V and Call of Duty. Vikkstar123 is an exception; his main channel is not FIFA-focused and his second channel is Minecraft-focused (although he also runs a third Let's Play channel and the fourth Call of Duty community channel).
This is a list of video games played by the Sidemen since the group's inception in 2013.
#This list is potentially endless. You can help out by adding any video games we may have missed. Please make sure they are genuine and you have sourced them reliably.
#A game that gains a position on this list must have had AT LEAST two Sidemen playing together (i.e. a video game that Miniminter has played on his own would not count towards this list).

==Controversies==
====Behzinga vs KSI====
On August 3, 2017, KSI made a series of tweets announcing his disengagement with the Sidemen. Following this, he uploaded a short YouTube video on August 6, 2017, confirming his decision to leave the group. He claimed that the reason he was leaving was primarily due to Ethan, stating he "can't stand him". JJ ended the video with a segment of him "rapping" which included disses against the Sidemen, in particular Ethan.I'm Leaving The Sidemen
The same day (August 6), Ethan uploaded a video titled "REPLACING KSI IN THE SIDEMEN HOUSE". In the video, Ethan joked that he was taking JJ's place in the Sidemen House, and proceeded to mess with JJ's room. The following day, Ethan uploaded a full-length "diss track" targeting JJ regarding their current drama, simply titled "Drama".REPLACING KSI IN THE SIDEMEN HOUSEBehzinga - Drama (Official Music Video)
On August 9, KSI uploaded a video of his reaction to the aforementioned diss track created by Ethan. He confirmed he was working on his own diss track.REACTING TO BEHZINGA'S DISS TRACK The track titled "Earthquake" was uploaded on August 12 to KSI's main channel and featured American YouTuber RiceGum.Earthquake - KSI Ethan posted his own reaction video to the song less than 24 hours later.REACTING TO KSI & RICEGUM'S DISS TRACK ON ME
Aside from a few quips, not a lot happened between Ethan and KSI for the following week - though Ethan confirmed he was working on a response to JJ's track "Earthquake". On August 18, he uploaded "Finished" and announced it'd be the last diss track he'd create.Behzinga - Finished (Official Music Video) KSI uploaded a reaction video the following day (August 19) and said he was still deliberating whether or not to respond.REACTING TO BEHZINGA'S REPLY
Ethan later stated in a vlog that his relationship with JJ can still be rebuilt and the diss tracks were just banter. It is believed that, with KSI not making another diss track on Ethan, this part of the drama had concluded. KSI uploaded a video on August 28 called "CONFRONTING BEHZINGA" showing that the two of them were very clearly still friends and that the drama was mainly just a joke.CONFRONTING BEHZINGA
====Deji vs Miniminter====
On August 5, Deji "jokingly" announced that he wanted to join the Sidemen. Simon called him out on Twitter, saying they didn't want him and that Deji should join Team 10 instead. Deji and Simon continued to dispute on Twitter, arguing primarily about JJ. Deji responded with tweets about how awful the Sidemen are and how "they're on life support".
Deji uploaded a diss track targeting the entirety of the Sidemen group (despite only having beef with Simon via Twitter) on August 11. He "dissed" all five remaining members of the group.Deji - Sidemen Diss Track (Official Music Video) Simon uploaded a video reacting to the track along with Vik, Josh, and Ethan the same day.SIDEMEN REACT TO DEJI SIDEMEN DISS TRACK
On August 12, Simon uploaded his diss track in response to Deji's titled "KSI'S LITTLE BROTHER - DEJI DISS TRACK".KSI'S LITTLE BROTHER - DEJI DISS TRACK (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) Deji subsequently uploaded his reaction to the track on August 13.DEJI REACTS TO MINIMINTER DEJI DISS TRACK
On August 20, Deji uploaded a second diss track directed at Miniminter, titled "Ungrateful".Deji - Ungrateful (Official Music Video)
This track once again brought about accusations of drug use which Simon denied in his reaction. Despite criticizing the track due to its "weak bars" and false information, Simon said he would not respond to any more diss tracks.EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT DEJI - UNGRATEFUL In a video on September 3, in which Deji and KSI reacted to diss tracks, Deji explained that "Ungrateful" was actually targeted at both Simon and Harry and that the drug accusations were directed towards him, not Simon.KSI REACTS TO DISSTRACKS
====KSI vs W2S====
Taking place concurrently with the drama between Deji and Simon, Harry uploaded a three-minute-long diss track on August 8 titled "KSI Sucks". The video has over 64 million views and was considered by the audience to be one of the best tracks. Harry predominantly targeted JJ and his family in the song.W2S - KSI Sucks (RiceGum & KSI Diss Track)
On August 9, RiceGum uploaded his reaction to Harry's diss track and was confused that Harry only mentioned him once throughout the song (as well as it being a compliment) despite his name being featured in the title. RiceGum also reacted to other diss tracks against him and complained about their hostility.Reacting to Diss Tracks About Me (Jake Paul, W2S, Sidemen)
On August 10, KSI uploaded his reaction to Harry's diss track.REACTING TO WROETOSHAW'S DISS TRACK A few hours later, Harry uploaded a video recapping the events that had taken place so far (and discussing RiceGum's video), titled "W2S - KSI ROASTS MY SISTER". This featured Harry's "second verse", although wasn't a full-length diss track. It didn't receive as much hate as his original song and Harry explained his reasons for being so brutal.W2S - KSI ROASTS MY SISTER (The Second Verse...) Diss Track
On August 13 - after uploading "Earthquake" aimed at Ethan, KSI uploaded a diss track titled "Little Boy" aimed at Harry as a response to "KSI Sucks". The video has over 61 million views. It included a lot of "controversial" lines relating to drug use which many of the Sidemen claimed was when the drama started turning serious.KSI - Little Boy (Official Music Video)
The following day, Harry uploaded a video with his mum reacting to "Little Boy". In the video, Harry promised he'd post his response within "72 hours".MY MUM REACTS TO KSI - LITTLE BOY (Diss Track). The day after that (15 August), KSI reacted to Harry's reaction video - within his own video titled "I'm Getting Deported".I'm Getting Deported
On August 19, Harry's second diss track called "KSI Exposed" was uploaded.W2S - KSI Exposed (Official Music Video) Diss Track The video is now unlisted. KSI did not react to this track as he did with the others and later revealed that he got so mad at Harry that he could not upload his reaction.
On August 24, KSI uploaded a diss track titled "Two Birds One Stone". It was targeted towards both W2S and Joe Weller and was the final diss track in the W2S and KSI drama. He responded to the accusations from Harry's diss track and summed up the situation between himself and Joe Weller.KSI - Two Birds One Stone (Official Music Video) Harry reacted to this track on the same day and provided no evidence that he would respond again.W2S REACTS TO KSI'S DISS TRACK (Two Birds One Stone)
====Involvement of TBJZL====
TBJZL vowed from the beginning that he wouldn't get involved in the drama. He instead launched "Team SKRRR" (implying that they avoid any involvement in any drama)."WHICH TEAM ARE YOU??? TEAM KSI OR TEAM SIDEMEN?" Deji nonetheless insulted Tobi during his own diss track, yet Tobi still did not engage.
====Vikkstar123 vs Deji====
On August 15, Vikkstar123 dropped his own diss track against Deji - something Deji said would never happen - called "THE END".THE END - SIDEMEN DISS TRACK DEJI REPLY (Official Music Video) The song was so fire, many people have said there was no coming back from it and that the war is over. Even KSI reacted to it and admitted that Deji couldn't come back from it. Nevertheless, Deji "reacted" to Vik's track, took it personally, got triggered, and said he'd make a new track aimed solely at Vik. Vik said that he will not be making another one, as the first was just a joke.DEJI REACTS TO THE END - SIDEMEN DISS TRACK REPLY (Official Music Video)
====The End====
On November 11, DramaAlert uploaded a brand new video in which he said that if they both like his tweet, that they made up. Both of them liked his tweet, confirming that they don't have beef anymore.WAS THE SIDEMEN BEEF FAKE?

In an interview held before the 2023 Sidemen Charity Match, Vikkstar123 told the BBC regarding the slur that the group had "very serious meetings" about the acceptability of what they joke about, saying, "We had to acknowledge that things are different to when we first all started platforms and the world has changed as a place. We saw it as a lesson and moved on from there and I think people were very understanding of that and allowed us to carry on doing what we're doing with a better sense of responsibility."The Sidemen: Our YouTube content lets you escape

This resulted in abnormal sleep patterns/schedules. Vik revealed that, in order to sustain his near-constant upload schedule on YouTube, he went to sleep at around 11:00 am and woke up at 6:00 pm. This was seen a lot, especially when streaming with friends overseas.I'm leaving the Sidemen House.
*During the time that Simon and JJ shared a flat (2019 until 2022), the Sidemen would use it as a base to film their less-extravagant group videos such as Q&As and indoor low-budget challenges, making up most contemporary MoreSidemen videos.My Last Video with JJ
*The Sidemen have a system in which they count how many videos each member has made (presented or organized) a year. A yellow card is given if a member is late/does not show up to a video shoot. Two yellow cards introduce a red card. If a member receives a red card, one of their videos is discounted. The member with the most yellow/red cards or the least amount of videos made that year, is given the next available video to organize.Sidemen Yellow Card System Explained
