PewDiePie is officially the king of petty after releasing a Congratulations music video for T-Series following his defeat in their YouTube subscriber battle – only to mock the rival channel in that very song.

The Swedish gamer was forced to concede defeat on Sunday after the Bollywood record label took the lead by over 100,000 subscribers.

Extending the olive branch, Pewds passed on his congrats through a new music video in which he raps: ‘I know we’ve had our differences but I just want to tell you, my congratulations, it’s a celebration, party all day I know you’ve been waiting.’



All fairly amicable so far.


But, in the midst of all the party poppers, balloons and bottles of champagne are not-so subtle digs at T-Series… like PewDie flipping the bird.

The 29-year-old says: ‘Yes you did it very nice and all it took, was a massive corporate entity with every song in Bollywood.’

Not bitter at all.

His onslaught of mockery continued: ‘Now you’re at number one, hope you did nothing wrong like starting your business by selling pirated songs.

‘Didn’t think we’d see? It’s right there on Wikipedia, get used to your past being held against you by the media.’

Ouch.

Pewds, real name Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, even ‘jokingly’ accuses T-Series of conspiring with the mafia. But, ‘for legal reasons’, he was of course only joking.

The mockery gets even more savage later in the music video.

As an example, the gamer makes a racist comment about Indian people to define the meaning of defamation after getting a cease and desist letter from the channel.

‘“T-Series can eat a dick” – still not defamation,’ he says as yet another explicit example.

‘Suck my fucking Swedish meatballs – still not defamation,’ apparently.

Closing the video with a message to his subscribers, PewDie jokingly says: ‘So this is it thanks for sticking with my channel, ever since I was a nobody screaming at barrells.

‘Through all the change and controversy you’ve been by my side, there’s no army in the world I would rather give me watch time.

‘It’s been a wild ride so while I can still be heard, here’s my one last bro-fist from the number one in the world.’

Ooh, he just couldn’t resist that last final dig.

Of course, it wasn’t the end and the mock celebrations continued.

When all’s said and done, Pewds has still got love for his ‘Indian bros’ though.

No doubt they’re thrilled.
