There were 2 Akademik(s) that post(ed) here. Currently, only Akademik still posts. Akademiks is the one that everyone knows from youtube that no longer posts here.

Having that lame hoe ass nikka be the "voice" of the rap populace does all of us a disservice though...Damn near every argument he makes sounds weak because its coming from him...Makes for a horrible dynamic... Lil whiny voiced lame trying to sneak his opinion in between buddens screaming opiate withdrawal fueled rants of rage bout the simplest shyt... If they want to pull off a bootleg rap first take, they gotta find someone with a personality at least half as strong as buddens...He does a good enough Screamin' A rendition... But Ak too much of a hoe to get his internet troll gimmick over on camera, he's no Skip Bayless

:dead:

I mean, I guess if you're a younger fan, some of his information does help give a better understanding, but the stuff he breaks down I've known for like 10-15 years now. He's not breaking any new ground. I think he overstates how much fans care about the inner-workings and the corporate machine. Joe comes off like he's bitter and has a vendetta and wants to do more exposing of the system rather than educate the people.

He's still a great entertainer though, and I feel this is his calling.

Joe's heart is in the right place but he's making the same mistake that everybody makes. If he was aware enough to find the right angle he could do what he's trying to do way more effectively.

The 360 deal shyt was the last of many really dumb things Joe's argued that I dont put much stock in his analysis anymore. BW that and the podcast he still didnt get it and he's always preaching about how he looks at things way deeper than everyone else. this after saying him and Cyn walked out of Get Out thinking it was wack and not realizing there was social commentary other than a horror flick lol.

That said i've been entertained. Just needs someone there like a Mal that calls out his fake smart ish.

This was probably the best episode so far. They gave Nadeska more time to speak and things went smooth without Joe being too over bearing.

I just got to say Nadeska is just straight up beautiful.
Back up off my woman. I liked her since rap fix live.

Joe Budden might be the dumb smartest person in hiphop christ, while he always has a nice listen it's amazing that such a technical rapper has problems grasping super simple arguments. Like the one about hype, "You react of hype before the album, not after", how does that even make sense :mjlol:
