Kassem Gharaibeh (born: October 10, 1983) is a Jordanian-American YouTuber who currently resides in Venice, California. He performed the voice of Cucumber in the Annoying Orange series.
He has many series' still progressing on his channel, such as Going Deep, Street Music, and California On. The latter is where Kassem G interviews normal (but usually strange) people on the street, all about a certain topic, usually to humorous effect. Going deep is another sort of interview, although it is with a porn star, and Kassem usually aims for degradation of their self-confidence. It is unknown at this time if the interviewees are told before it is for humour, or if the opposite is true. Street music is one of his newest set of videos, where him and fellow YouTuber Nice Peter play music near people on the street, watching and commenting on what they see.
Kassem G was part of the YouTube channel The Station with ShayCarl, LisaNova, HiImRawn, Nice Peter, Timothy DeLaghetto and many others.
