🚨 Ray Daniels says Meek Mill is fighting a battle he CANNOT win with Akademiks and argues this beef is exposing a bigger shift in hip-hop: podcasters now have more power than rappers do Ray says Meek could get his own version of Ak to fight back, but even... then that person would eventually still have to deal with Akademiks. He also rejects the idea that Ak is a dickrider: “You can’t say that about Ak… he’ll tell you how he feels straight up about whoever.” “Ak is the audience. Meek is on stage.” Ray says a rapper can spend months making and promoting an album, while Ak can talk for two hours and have clips spread everywhere almost instantly. “Meek cannot beat Ak.” “I think the podcasts have killed rap music.”show more

Meek needed to stop tweeting He was super credible, then we saw his DUMB ASS tweets. Tweeting made him look stupid, no one wants to listen to a stupid artist that takes themselves seriously.

Actually I understand what boy in the white was saying , they can’t relate meek so they gon go with Ak cause he’s just like them. Definitely makes sense

The smartest thing ray has ever said is that podcast are killing hip hop. Yall let the computer nerds who don’t touch grass and jack off all day take over. Hip hop is a clown show now. It’s corny to be a rapper now. People like ak and vlad make a mockery of this culture.

The problem is these goofs think it’s about winning and losing, this is not a sport it’s real life. Eveybody knows AK sensationalizes Black Death, Meek is correct on that

“Akademiks isn’t a dick rider” “he tells you how he feels” the more I hear Ray speak, the more I believe he’s either retarded or he’s compromised cause there’s no way you can’t tell anyone that Tubby isn’t a dick rider. 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽😂😂

Hip hop is not dying.... It's just transforming into something that resembles the times, that's why it looks so unfamiliar 90's babies are the last of what "pure" hip hop is/was Time to evolve or get left behind

1. Calling Ak audience kids is belittling to be dismissive. Most are Millennials! 2. Street niggas are Clowns, dancing on stage. 3. Pod caster who party and fuck hoes are clowns. 4. AK, Vlad, ext will last the test of time.

🚨 Akademiks says Meek Mill and Lil Baby are NEVER getting in the ring with him because one clean punch would ruin their lives on the internet “I don’t even have to win the fight.” Ak says all he needs is ONE clean shot on Meek: “That shit’s gonna be bigger than ‘Back to Back.’” Ak also says Meek’s own son would come home disrespecting him after seeing it, and says his new profile picture would instantly be him punching Meek in the face. Ak also claims Lil Baby already hates him partly because Baby’s son watches him and once asked: “Daddy, you not richer than Akademiks?” “I only need one shot.”

“I’m going to show Meek Mill what he should have done when he was on top of the world.” Meek Mill spam-calls Akademiks while he’s live, prompting Akademiks to call him a “Diddy stalker” and refuse to answer. Akademiks says he tried to get Meek on his show back in 2018, but Meek treated him like trash because he felt he was bigger than the platform. Now that the tables have turned, Akademiks says he’s going to show Meek what it feels like to beg.

Akademiks reacts to Meek Mill’s tweets and says the point of a label is to fluff up an artist and make them appear bigger than they are. Ak says Meek needs to realize that by going completely independent, the label (the entity that was pushing him crazy), is no longer incentivized to care about him or any other artist in his position. This is why he’ll notice that things aren’t how they were, but nobody is having secret meetings to mess with Meek Mill.

That was never part of the job. On the “What’s the Dirt” video about Roc Nation , he’s watched it, and says even if everything in it is true, he doesn’t care enough to go investigate it himself. He’s locked in on the Nolan case right now. His question back to Ak: what exactly does he want him to do with the information once he has it? He says why would he fuck**g be afraid of Drake when he is the same guy who spoke against Israel at UN? Flip also called Dj Akademiks out , saying Ak has his own relationship with Drake but doesn’t want anyone else to have one with Jay-Z. He says people have the right to have relationships with Jay the same way he has one with Drake . Joe Budden agreed. The podcast then got into the bigger picture of all the beefs going on, with Joe pointing out Charlamagne started it all… then went quiet. Said he loves that. 👀
