Akademiks reacts to Spotify removing 25M streams from 21 Savage’s What Happened To The Streets? Album Ak says if fans want to call this “botting,” then the same standard has to apply across the board, pointing out that Kendrick Lamar has had billions of streams removed before Ak says if there’s any artist with the most public evidence of stream manipulation, it would be Kendrick not Savage.

DJ Akademiks addresses the reported botting rumors surrounding 21 Savage's new album "WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STREETS?" and alleges possible label manipulation of the album's first-week sales numbers: "This is not a situation of botting. If it was botting, it would be astronomic inflated streams. We would see if Spotify or Apple Music or Pandora catches, that's not what it is." "There is no evidence of Botting. Now, I never said there was no evidence of manipulation. I said there was possible manipulation..."

🚨 The chat asked Dj Akademiks if he would ask Drake whether the leaked track “Hi Whitney” was actually his 👀 Ak responded saying he probably should ask him… before revealing that Drake allegedly already told him the REAL story behind the original “Push Ups” leak 👀 According to Akademiks, Drake explained how the first unfinished version of “Push Ups” got leaked and said the situation was NOT an intentional test leak like fans originally believed. 🗣️ Ak: “People always thought that he was testing it. That was not true. But he figured it out.” Ak says Drake later explained the entire situation to him privately, leaving him surprised after hearing what really happened behind the scenes. 📈 During the stream, Akademiks also celebrated Drake’s streaming numbers reportedly increasing: • Global numbers allegedly up 6.4% • U.S. numbers reportedly up 8.7% • Daily streams reportedly jumped from 50M to 53M 🗣️ “Ooo I like that… US went up too.”

🎥 DJ Akademiks Reacts to Armon’s Coverage of the Megan Thee Stallion vs. Milagro Grams Case DJ Akademiks reviewed several of Armon Wiggins’ tweets and clips breaking down what happened in court today and Ak had a lot to say. 🔹 Ak Agrees With Armon on Key Points After watching Armon’s commentary, Ak highlighted a few things he strongly agrees with: 1️⃣ Milagro is media. Ak says a lot of traditionally trained journalists look down on or hate on new media creators and Armon was right to call that out. 2️⃣ Opinions shouldn’t be punished. Ak agrees with Armon that Milagro shouldn’t be sued over her opinions, especially as a commentator. People in media old or new should be able to share their perspectives without legal retaliation. 🔹 Ak’s Overall Take Ak feels this whole situation shows the ongoing tension between legacy media and new digital media, but he stands firm that opinions are protected, and Milagro shouldn’t be targeted for doing what media personalities do.

🚨 DJ Akademiks breaks down what it was really like hanging with Drake from private jets to conversations and a surprise chain gift. Akademiks says Drake flew him out to Toronto on a private jet and booked 10 rooms at the Four Seasons like it was nothing 😭 🗣️ “Drake told me, ‘Yo Ak, I’m gonna send you a bird.’ I’m thinking he talking about American Airlines or something… whole time he meant a private jet.” 😂 Ak says the experience showed him the different level Drake lives on daily, joking: 💀 “Drake probably be like, ‘Yo this broke-ass nigga Ak.’” The biggest moment came when Drake surprised Akademiks with a chain gift. Ak admitted he thought Drake was trolling at first because of how funny Drake acts in person. 😅 “I thought he was pranking me. I didn’t even react crazy at first because I thought he was gonna say, ‘Nah nigga, that’s my chain!’” Instead, Ak gave Drake an emotional 10-minute speech thanking him and reflecting on their relationship over the years. 🎤 Akademiks revealed one of their earliest conversations was about the unique dynamic between them as the biggest rapper and one of the biggest media personalities in hip hop. According to Ak, Drake respected that he could criticize him honestly without it coming from hate. 🗣️ Drake allegedly told him: “When you criticize me and I know it’s genuine, it challenges me.” Akademiks compared their relationship to LeBron James and Skip Bayless competitive at times, but still built on mutual respect. 🏆 “I’m the top media guy, he’s the top rapper. There’s no number twos.” Ak also shared a deeper moment where Drake once told him that the real payoff would come years later when both of them are older and retired, sitting together reflecting on everything they went through during their careers. 🥃 Drake allegedly told Ak: “One day we’ll sit down, have a drink, and laugh about all this.” Akademiks says the conversation stuck with him because Drake understood they were never supposed to just be “yes men” around each other criticism and pressure were part of what made the relationship real. 👀 Ak ended by debating whether he should release the emotional footage and full speech to the public or keep it private because he knows the internet will clown him for being too since

Glasses Malone Tells Big Loon Meek Mill should’ve handled Akademiks already — “He gotta PAY.”& Akademiks Responds “ I Would Love To Fight Meek Mill | It’s Up There Podcast 👀 watch here Glasses Malone sits with Big Loon and says what most people only whisper: DJ Akademiks talks reckless because the culture let him get comfortable. In this clip, Glasses argues Ak should’ve been confronted in real life by now — not for “music opinions,” but for the way culture business gets discussed like it’s consequence-free entertainment. Big Loon pushes the bigger responsibility angle, questioning how public threats and viral moments can put people in the crosshairs—while Glasses stays on principle: if disrespect costs nothing, it becomes a business model. That’s where the line is drawn: this isn’t album critique… it’s accountability. For context, the Meek Mill vs Akademiks tension has been public for years, including the well-known Clubhouse moment where 21 Savage mediated their heated exchange—a sign that the culture has been trying to manage this problem without a real standard attached.

🚨 DJ Akademiks Speaks on Alleged Altercation Involving Lil Baby Affiliate K-Rich 👀 DJ Akademiks addressed ongoing claims made by K-Rich, an alleged Lil Baby affiliate, after K-Rich went on streamer Cuffem’s live claiming he swung on and slapped Akademiks. According to Akademiks, that version of events is false. 📌 Akademiks’ Side of the Story: •Akademiks says nobody ever slapped him point blank. •He admits K-Rich attempted to swing, but missed. •Akademiks says the situation happened a while back, and he deliberately kept it offline after speaking directly with Lil Baby. 📞 Conversation With Lil Baby: •Akademiks claims he contacted Lil Baby shortly after the incident. •Lil Baby allegedly told him the situation had nothing to do with him and that he did not send anyone. •Because of that conversation, Akademiks says he continued supporting Lil Baby’s music and stayed neutral publicly. 💰 Industry Context: •Akademiks revealed Lil Baby’s team previously paid him $30,000 for promo related to a past album. •He says that business relationship is now over, adding that the money “means nothing” compared to respect. ⚠️ Why Akademiks Is Speaking Now: •Akademiks says he waited for K-Rich to go public first so the record would be clear. •He claims K-Rich lied on stream by saying he slapped him. •Akademiks says from this point forward, any criticism toward Lil Baby is not hate, but a response to what he sees as disrespect and dishonesty. 🗣️ Akademiks Final Stance: •He maintains no one ever touched him. •He says K-Rich acted independently. •He feels the situation exposed possible “backdoor” behavior from people around Lil Baby, even if Lil Baby himself wasn’t directly involved. 👀 This situation is still developing, but Akademiks made it clear: Attempted swing doesn’t mean slap and silence was intentional, until now.

🚨 Akademiks shares his thoughts following Ebro’s comments that a classic Drake album will “never happen” 👀 Ak says the “Drake needs a classic rap album” narrative originally came from old hiphop gatekeepers who only considered lyrical boom-bap albums as real classics. He explains people like Ebro pushed the idea that albums had to sound like Illmatic, Reasonable Doubt or The Blueprint to qualify, which automatically excluded artists like Drake who blend rap, melody and pop. Ak even admits he used to repeat that narrative on Everyday Struggle, saying Drake had “personal classics” like Take Care but not a “hiphop classic” because that was the expectation from hiphop purists at the time. Now he says that mindset is outdated, arguing Drake changed the formula of hiphop stardom and that classics should be defined as timeless and influential albums with replay value that define a generation. Ak says several Drake projects already fit that definition, including Take Care, Nothing Was the Same, If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late, Views, Scorpion and Certified Lover Boy. He also adds that the culture’s definition of classics evolved over time, pointing to albums like Finally Rich by Chief Keef as an example of projects that defined a generation even without traditional lyricism.

#ELLEBsideStory #ELLEThailand #beckysangels #ELLEBSideStoryxBECKY 🎤: Aside from your hardworking side, if you could choose to travel abroad or go anywhere you truly have free time to visit, where would that be? 🧚‍♀️: Paris, or England. England is my home, of course. But as for Paris, I haven't been there that many times, and usually, it’s for Fashion Week, so the schedule is always packed. I really love the atmosphere there, though. I don’t know why, but I just want to wake up early and go for a walk. Buy a matcha, take some photos. Everyone you meet says "Good morning, how are you?" Or just go out for breakfast, have a croissant, things like that. It’s quite lovely. If I had the chance, I’d want to stay a bit longer. Treat it like a real vacation and get to know the city because there are still countryside areas I haven't visited yet that I’d love to see. There isn’t really a specific reason; it’s just that I’m happy every time I go. The environment makes me feel so blissful. Even though I’m happy in Thailand, going there...it just feels so good.

#ELLEBsideStory #ELLEThailand #beckysangels #ELLEBSideStoryxBECKY 🎤: Aside from your hardworking side, if you could choose to travel abroad or go anywhere you truly have free time to visit, where would that be? 🧚‍♀️: Paris, or England. England is my home, of course. But as for Paris, I haven't been there that many times, and usually, it’s for Fashion Week, so the schedule is always packed. I really love the atmosphere there, though. I don’t know why, but I just want to wake up early and go for a walk. Buy a matcha, take some photos. Everyone you meet says "Good morning, how are you?" Or just go out for breakfast, have a croissant, things like that. It’s quite lovely. If I had the chance, I’d want to stay a bit longer.

🚨The chat asked Dj Akademiks why Drake’s Iceman records currently have low radio numbers despite dominating streaming platforms 👀📻 Ak broke down how radio “servicing” works and explained why most of Drake’s songs are showing almost ZERO airplay right now. 🗣️ Ak: “Drake has absolutely zero radio airplay on most of these records.” According to Ak, the issue isn’t that radio stations dislike Drake it’s because the songs reportedly weren’t officially “serviced” to radio by the label yet. Ak explained that radio airplay works differently from streaming: 📻 A song has to be pushed into rotation by a label’s promotion team 📻 Stations then repeatedly play the record “hour on the hour” 📻 Billboard counts those audience impressions toward the Hot 100 charts Ak says Drake’s current chart positions are being driven almost entirely by streams and sales, not radio support 🗣️ “Right now it’s going off strictly streams and sales.” He also explained why artists like Bruno Mars and Ella Langley currently show stronger airplay numbers: 🗣️ “Their records are already being serviced to radio.” Ak noted that radio only affects the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart not the Billboard 200 album chart. He then revealed that Drake’s team is reportedly beginning the radio rollout NOW for records like “Janis” and the West Coast-inspired tracks from Iceman 👀 According to Ak, if Drake’s records still have no radio push several weeks from now, it could raise bigger questions about the relationship between Drake and his label. 🗣️ “If the label stops doing their duties… that becomes another conversation.” Ak ultimately believes Drake’s numbers are still extremely strong because the project is succeeding without major radio assistance, something very few artists can pull off in today’s music industry

🚨 DJ Akademiks Goes Live Ahead Of Drake’s “Iceman” Release & Announces A 12 Hour Stream Dedicated To The Album Rollout 🧊 🦉 Ak revealed he’ll be streaming all day leading into the release, breaking down: 👀 Alleged leaks 🎶 Possible diss tracks 📀 Album predictions 🔥 Fan reactions 🎤 Hip-hop topics & industry conversations 📡 Hidden details within the rollout Akademiks called today “Iceman Day” and made it clear the stream would eventually shift fully into “album release party mode” centered around Drake. 🗣️ “Today is a special day… We’re gonna have a good time. We’re gonna react to everybody’s reactions of what they think is going on and what maybe is going on.” He also admitted he personally doesn’t know the final tracklist or what records actually made the album: 🗣️ “I actually don’t know what’s on Iceman and what’s not. We’ll just see.” According to Ak, the first half of the stream would focus on general hip-hop conversations before transitioning exclusively into Drake content later in the night on Kick, where he says they’ll be able to freely listen to music live without interruptions. 🎧 “At a certain point it’s only gonna be about Aubrey, Drizzy, Drake Graham.” Akademiks also addressed what he feels has been a major shift in public perception surrounding Drake over the last two years, claiming many industry figures and fans turned against him during difficult moments only to now slowly reverse course as anticipation builds around Iceman. 🗣️ “I watched so many people switch sides… They acted like his reign was over.” He compared Drake’s current moment to past eras where major artists faced heavy criticism before bouncing back stronger, saying resilience is what defines hip-hop greats. 🏀 Ak even compared it to fans abandoning teams once they stop winning: 🗣️ “Everybody was a Golden State Warriors fan… what happened to them?” Ak says tonight’s stream will also include surprise guests, deep dives into Drake’s rollout strategy, and breakdowns of subtle details fans may have overlooked leading into the album release

🚨 DJ Akademiks says there’s only TWO artists from Drake’s past he wants to see collaborate with him moving forward: 🔥 Nicki Minaj 🔥 Lil Wayne According to Ak, every other rapper Drake has worked with over the years can stay in the past. 🗣️ “If it’s not Nicki Minaj and it’s not Lil Wayne, I think Drake is better by himself.” Ak made it clear he has no interest in nostalgia collaborations or reunion records with Drake’s former rap peers. 🗣️ “We don’t care how good the first song was. We don’t care how good the second song was. Time’s up.” 🚫 No old collaborations. 🚫 No reunion records. 🚫 No ‘bringing back the feeling.’ Ak says the only exception is Young Money. 👑 He believes fans are overdue for another Drake, Nicki Minaj, and Lil Wayne posse cut, comparing the anticipation to when the trio released “Seeing Green.” 🗣️ “We need another ‘Seeing Green.’ We need that bad.” While replaying Young Money classics, Ak argued that no rap collective past or present could generate the same excitement as Drake, Nicki, and Wayne appearing on a track together in 2026. 👀 He even questioned whether reunions from groups like: MMG Roc-A-Fella TDE would create the same level of anticipation. 🗣️ “I don’t think there’s any group we want to hear more than Drake, Nicki Minaj, and Lil Wayne on a posse cut.” Ak spent part of the stream revisiting “Seeing Green” and “No Frauds,” praising the chemistry between all three artists and calling their collaborations some of the most replayable records in modern hip-hop. He also reflected on Drake and Nicki’s relationship, suggesting that after everything that’s happened in the industry over the last few years, Drake may now better understand some of the points Nicki has been making publicly. 🎯 Bottom line: Akademiks says Drake doesn’t need to revisit old partnerships or chase nostalgia. The formula is simple: 🦉 Drake 👑 Nicki Minaj 🐐 Lil Wayne And give the fans a long overdue “Seeing Green Part 2

👀 Akademiks Speaks Before Florida Show… And Drops Some Wild Claims Before catching his flight, DJ Akademiks went live and briefly touched on the recent Jay-Z interview but what really stood out was what he claimed happened behind the scenes with Roc Nation… 🚨 Main Claim: Roc Nation vs Akademiks Ak says Roc Nation tried to get his Instagram page taken down over copyright strikes… BUT HERE’S THE TWIST 👇 •He claims they flagged content… •That THEY allegedly paid him to post in the first place 🤯 •According to him, it involved a rollout clip tied to Pusha T and a leaked verse from Kendrick Lamar 👉 His argument: labels move messy internally one department pays for promo, another files takedowns. 🧠 Ak’s Industry Theory Ak doubled down on a bigger point about labels: •Labels are too big and unorganized •Different departments don’t communicate •Money gets thrown around with no coordination •Artists + media get caught in the middle 💬 “Marketing team doesn’t know what the next department is doing… it’s just money being burned.” 🎤 On Jay-Z + Media Energy Ak also hinted at media bias when it comes to Jay-Z: •Says many media personalities stay quiet or positive •Suggests it’s tied to access (tickets, events, industry ties) •Mentioned hype around possible shows (like stadium concerts) 👀 “I Called This” Moment Ak made it clear he feels ahead of the curve: •Claims he predicted how things would play out •Says he’s one of the only media voices calling out these moves in real time 🤔 Bigger Conversation This raises a few questions: •Are labels really that disorganized behind the scenes? •Was this a mistake… or something more strategic? •And how much influence does Roc Nation actually have over media narratives?

🎙️ DJ Akademiks Gives Update on Drake’s “Iceman” Rollout + Plans Major Stream on X Here’s a breakdown of what Akademiks just revealed about Drake’s upcoming Iceman drop 👇 📡 Streaming Plans: X Is Back for Big Moments Akademiks says he typically streams across: •Spotify •YouTube •Apple Music •Kick But he confirmed he plans to return to X (formerly Twitter) specifically for a major moment and that moment will likely be when Drake drops Iceman. He’s promising: “A fabulous, huge stream. Don’t worry.” 🤝 His Relationship With Drake Akademiks addressed the constant speculation that Drake feeds him leaks. He says: •Drake has NOT given him music to leak. •He’s purposely stayed detached from this rollout. •He wants to be able to critique it honestly good or bad. He described their dynamic as: “Somewhat friendship, somewhat business.” He also admitted he could ask Drake for exclusive info but this time he’s choosing not to. 🎬 Addressing the “Discombobulated” Iceman Episode Akademiks admitted he didn’t love the last Iceman livestream episode. After speaking to Drake privately, he explained: •Some previewed songs were older tracks, not necessarily final album material. •Drake has been juggling: •Touring overseas •Recording new music •Assembling the album •Producing the livestream episodes That workload may have impacted the structure of Episode 3. Fans expected a bigger payoff after multiple episodes and Akademiks acknowledges that. 🧠 Media Transparency + Bias Ak doubled down on his new media philosophy: “Trust your gut. Don’t trust me. Don’t trust anyone.” He admits he has biases and says transparency about that is better than pretending to be neutral. He claims most media personalities: •Hide their biases •Protect relationships •Act like “arbiters of truth” Instead, he prefers to let the audience judge for themselves. 📆 The One Favor He’s Asking Drake Akademiks hasn’t confirmed Drake’s release date but says he has “an idea.” However, he’s making one personal request: 🚫 Do NOT drop on March 27th. Why? That’s the date of Akademiks’ live show in Miami. He says if Drake drops the night before (March 26), he’d have to be live reacting and it would conflict with his event. He joked: •He’ll have Hennessy ready. •He might be hooked up to an IV. •But he must be live when the album hits. His strategy? He’s going to ask Drake to confirm at least one date he won’t drop as a way to narrow the timeline. 🎤 Miami Show Details 📍 Miami 📅 March 27 •Meet & Greet: SOLD OUT •VIP: SOLD OUT •General tickets still available Ak says it’ll be a “classic” live show. ⏳ Bottom Line •Iceman is coming. •Akademiks plans a massive X stream when it drops. •He’s staying detached from the rollout to critique it honestly. •He’s publicly lobbying Drake not to drop on March 27. Now the real question… Does Drake adjust for Ak? Or is Iceman dropping whenever he feels like it? 🥶

This mechanic says that if it wasn’t for American made cars, he doesn’t know if they would be in business. He points out that all the cars currently in the bays are American made. He says they work on all makes and models but it’s the American made cars the make up the majority of their business. He says that the only foreign cars in the parking lot belong to himself and other people who work there. He says if you want a car that lasts, buy a Toyota. I had a Honda Civic once and got over 500K miles on it. Had a Nissan and got well over 300K miles on it. I have owned Ford, Chevy and GM cars. I’ll be honest, they didn’t last like the foreign cars. I do think American trucks are better than foreign trucks but why can’t we make good cars that last ? What do you think? Do you think he’s right? Are you a die hard Ford Chevy or GM person? Do you own a foreign car or an American made car?
