DJ Akademiks said he wouldn't be responding to Meek Mill, but their social media beef continues to rage on. After Meek ranted about Akademiks on Twitter and threatened to pull up to his house, Ak took to social media to show off his gun collection in response.
This follows the Philly MC blasting the commentator in new videos on social media. He also challenged him to go live together, which DJ Akademiks was not having at all.
Akademiks later posted a screenshot of Meek trying to get on a call with him via Instagram to no avail.
Also, he not only responded to the rapper on stream, but also in other social media videos. Meek Mill and DJ Akademiks have a long beef history, so this back-and-forth should come as no surprise.
Meek Mill & DJ Akademiks Beef
For those unaware, the root of all this is how Meek blasted Akademiks for his Lil Durk trial coverage, accusing him of platforming detractors like 6ix9ine. Ironically, though, Tekashi had accused Ak of "going hard" for Durk. So all of this media debate and Internet speculation is having everyone face the scrutiny of both sides of the case, whether it's those supporting the Chicago rapper's not guilty verdict or condemning it.
Meek Mill previously commented on Lil Durk's trial and caused controversy for referring to him as an "innocent kid." Many folks thought the comment was tone-deaf and absolving Durk of any accountability, even if they didn't have to think he was guilty to reach this conclusion.
On the other hand, DJ Akademiks came up in the Lil Durk trial, specifically via his interview with the rapper. While prosecutors attempted to paint the conversation as an admission to murder-for-hire, jurors did not buy it. The judge in the case also expressed sympathy for Akademiks' anger at coming up in this way in court.
With all this in mind, we doubt Ak's conflict with Meek and their adjacent or direct debates about the Lil Durk situation will end anytime soon. It's an online war of words, and both men are happy to keep the animosity up until one, the other, or both call it quits.
