He often streams on Twitch and sometimes makes highlight videos.
== History ==
James has a wide range of YouTube videos and series on his channel: one of the earliest and most known series is called "VRChat in a nutshell" where he experiences VRChat and meets people with different types of personalities and characters from other games. He usually plays with a lot of his friends. He has also played other games, such as Roblox, Fortnite, CS: GO and Apex Legends for funny moment videos. In 2018, he was primarily making solo videos due to his crazy neighbor situation.
Before 2017, James was known as Kiisly/KiislyLive/KiisliyMLG which he was known as MLG Parody maker, a professional CS:GO player and SFM Animator. He was the creator of a popular SFM parody of Harry Einfield's LoadsamoneyKiisliy/Jameskii's parody of Loadsamoney. In mid-2016, he changed his YouTube name to Jameskii to comply with a record label with the same name as Kiisly. He posted a selfie on Twitter, and a week later, on September 1, 2018, he uploaded an official face reveal video on YouTube,https://web.archive.org/web/20180902044716/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLGfcquimSw&gl=US&hl=en which was later deleted.
On June 3, 2019, he created a channel named James Prime, where he would upload some vlogs on the channel (however there were also some random videos on there).
==Copyright strikes & claims==
On December 19, 2018, James received his first copyright strike because one of his Roblox videos contained about 30 seconds of a song made by Tekashi 6ix9ine.
On January 4, 2019, James made a video about five copyright claims he received by CollabDRM on a TikTok video which contains a video clip of Rebecca Zamolo. However, she wasn't aware of the situation and CollabDRM had also attempted to sue him for defamation and making false claims that he hasn't replied to them. They also tried to offer him "licenses" ($300/each license) to the clips as long as he would delete his statements and remain silent. Anyhow, the situation didn't end up getting resolved and as a result, James had to remove his video to avoid getting a strike. On February 1, 2019, he received another copyright strike because of a sound effect on a VRChat video, but it has been quickly withdrawn.
James got several copyright claims without any claims by other companies, which seriously affected James' mental health. He talked about having a "painful surgery because of existing health condition escalated by stress caused by Collab situation". There weren't any signs of cancer or other diseases and he is currently recovering from it.

===Allegations against Twomad===
On February 14, 2024, YouTuber Twomad was revealed to have been found dead in his apartment. Hours after the news broke out, James made a tweethttps://twitter.com/Jameskii/status/1757852632457318553 claiming that he was a rapist and a pedophile, had attempted to murder him multiple times, planned to take out multiple lives by driving recklessly while under the influence of drugs, and preyed on a 13 year old girl in mental hospital. 
On February 16, he made a second tweethttps://twitter.com/Jameskii/status/1758308036425515046 saying that Twomad put a Bullet hole in his office and James was told to wear a Bulletproof vest in public. He witnessed a SWAT team with ballistic shields outside of his home, and had to cooperate with an anti-terrorism unit, when Twomad made implications of people's lives being in James' control at TwitchCon, leading to the entire convention center being surrounded by police SUVs. He replied to a tweet from Justa Minxhttps://twitter.com/Jameskii/status/1758352972587958559 claiming that she actively interfered with investigations and assisted Twomad by revealing confidential information provided by the authorities and she also encouraged him to kill himself for hours and days before his death. Minx even talked about it on streams. 
In a third tweethttps://twitter.com/Jameskii/status/1758645615653945629, he shows footage claiming that Twomad did posess real firearms, showing him unloading a pistol, as well as a photo of him seemingly pointing it at a girl. He claimed the video he was sent was privately taken right before a BTS concert in December 2021. 
James' claims were initially met with a mixed response. Although many showed him support, others were skeptical, criticizing him for making his allegations the same day Twomad was reported dead. as well as an initial lack of evidence to support his claims. Some also surfaced the full video of Twomad's encounter with the girl, revealing that the pistol he pointed at her was actually an airsoft gun, but also confirming he owned a separate firearm in the same video.https://twitter.com/shousitsu003/status/1758652468744130949?s=46&t=wQBLt9udNJxuBOwdPSaBzQ The girl James mentioned also responded to his claims, denying that Twomad ever groomed or made any sexual advances towards her, claiming that they were actually friends.https://twitter.com/deffomi/status/1774882617277432051https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GJNcyVaXQAArATR?format=jpg&name=large However, an older tweet from Twomad shows Discord messages between them that seem to contradict her and imply that maybe he did have such intentions.https://x.com/twomad/status/1734978183299281276?s=20 RubberRoss also came out and claimed that James was hiding in his hotel during TwitchCon, as Twomad was enroute to James' house and James was waiting for law enforcement.
On March 14, James released a 52-page Google Doc containing all the evidence he was allowed to provide against Twomad.https://docs.google.com/document/d/1i1mzi2RwndWCAolb_nhD5yVy-c796X4ZpW-emRQoH-8/ In the document, James goes over specific instances of stalking, threats of violence, and abuse from Twomad. He also provides evidence that Twomad possessed both airsoft and real guns.https://twitter.com/Jameskii/status/1768364747135893870 James provided verifiable evidence to his claims such as legal documents, screenshots, and videos of Twomad admitting to some of James' claims. He also talks about an investigation that led to many discoveries, such as Twomad's aforementioned firearms, an unregistered duplicate Tesla, attempts at manipulating and destroying evidence, him actively looking for James at Twitchcon, sexual assault, and predatory behavior towards minors. Most of the responses were supportive, showing condolences to James and Twomad's other victims, though he was still met with some criticism and skepticism by others.
