That doesn't mean anything breh. Just because you have nikkas that got your back doesn't mean you're gonna jump out the window and beef with other street nikkas and cause all kinds of drama in your and their lives. That's reckless and child like. Half my family is gang members, but I'm not gonna flex on nikkas behind that, because that shyt is corny. In fact, I avoid conflict all the time because they are.
That's what I was getting at before. Scared might not have been the right word. But basically that Joe knows shyt can get taken to a whole other level so easier for Joe to stop speaking foul on Meek rather than his team and Meek's taking it to the street level.

i watched the Wale one. eh...
even if he was rambling, i enjoyed Wale calmly shyt on Akademiks but if you wanted to you can poke a hole in what Wales says.

Wale and Budden can make Akademiks look like a cornball because clearly he is one.
but..when other rappers call them out, they are quick to play the "hey, oh geez, i'm just an outcast cornball" card themselves.

as much as they two like to separate themselves from Ak..theyre not that different. Budden, Wale, Akademiks are all internet guys.
shyt, Akademiks is what i expect most black Budden fans to be like.

i'm not buying Wale's facade that he doesn't care now..whether its about sales, reviews etc.
Akademiks dresses like pure shyt and why is Joe wearing a t-shirt that looked like he ironed it with a cheese grater in the next episode ?

oh and Wale's album is really good.
warm summer night as it just starts to get dark music. i really like it.

You too dumb right now to realize you making Wale's point. That's 100% AKs right to post what'll bring him the money. Wale's point was that AK doesn't really have credibility or have his own tastes he just follows what's hot and jumps on the trends that'll give him a chance to make money.

That means AK ain't somebody you go to in order to find out who may be on the come up. You go to AK to see who's already hot.
And ?

:mindblown:

When did Akademics EVER SAY that was his lane. "To know who's on the come up" ?

That statement is pointless.

Akademics has his lane and he runs it. Who TF needs wale's consulting.

:heh:

Dead that shyt, Joe hisself has said over and over again that there's certain people he just refuses to fukk with in the hip hop game. So if it's a case of Joe having some real nikkas behind him he'd have no problem going at anybody. Plus the dudes behind him ain't trying to put they neck on the line over some bullshyt Joe brings on his own ass due to having a big ass mouth.

No, you just sound like a kid. Having real nikkas behind you isn't an excuse to be 40 years old and "going at anybody" in the streets just to flex that. You keep nikkas like that on deck for real shyt.

Point is, don't get it twisted about Joe, he has taken his L's but if it's some real funk he ain't just out there by himself.

I just got a chance to watch the wale episode, one of the best episodes so far... the akademics/wale debate was entertaining

Joe was straight up bullying AK in today's ep lol

Edit: damn AK's classic list was triddash lol

Although you can make a case with MDTF, it would of came across better if he said just House Of Balloons instead of Trilogy too, again you can make a case.

nikka said paper trail, finally rich and tru realigion is a classic:mjlol:
808s:mjlol:
the gatekeeper of the new generation brehs:skip:

I don't agree with the others but I can see how someone could see 808s as a classic if they're a certain age. It set up the generation on top now, Drake had a damn freestyle over an 808s beat on So Far Gone plus Cudi and Sean wrote on it.

Tru Realigion was a movement :whoa:

Ak still a hoe. I liked Finally Rich a lot and it had the classic Love Sosa, Hate Being Sober n Don't Like but not a classic album. Paper Trail was dope but not classic. Only to him
