Vic Mensa calls Akademiks a bytch to his face.... Ak does nothing, like a b*tch

[ineedsleep212]

These youtube clowns really trying to get this man killed. Some folks acting like he was really doing them a service by making those videos. Seriously, there is no code of the street thing going on here. It's called being a decent human being.

 

[GreenGhxst]

I'm both ways about this.

Akademiks be talking a lot of shyt on his podcast and its only a matter of time before he got pressed on. He's clearly one of those internet nikkas that's not use to regular interaction outside and clearly a non confrontational cat. Vic smelled that about him and pressed him heavily. Ak a bytch for not standing up for himself when Joey and Deska be slaying him.

But at the same time why didn't Vic press on Taxstone when he was out? Tax was talking HELLA Shyt about Chicago on his podcast with Gillie and Star was talking about a bomb should be dropped in Chicago. Why didn't he press them?

Did Vic have an interview where he was face to face with Tax or Star? If not, why would he get on IG or snapchat and do that dumb shyt where you call somebody out and say you can't come to my city type shyt.

And what's up with yall nikkas in here always talking about "wolves" this ain't game of thrones bih

always talking about these mythological nikkas called "wolves"

"ooh be careful nikka, dem wolves is comin fa you " face ass

 

[GreenGhxst]

so lemme get this straight, a geek can say anything he wants about anyone (even mock a dead friend) and you can't do anything about it, even just voicing your displeasure about what they said to their face, just because they're a geek?

exactly, what kind of logic is that, never understood why nikkas on the internet try to reach and be something they're not

 

[ineedsleep212]

I see this from multiple perspectives, but honestly... Vic isn't wrong for feeling the way he does. When I first saw the clip on social media, I figured "Well, he probably feels this way because these might be his friends out here dying." And now that I've read the thread, it turns out that Akademiks made a video about someone he knew since he was five. For Vic to feel upset, I think that's only natural. Whether he really felt some type of way to the point of actually wanting to slap him on camera or not remains to be seen, but I do understand how Vic and many other people from Chicago would feel.

I've lived in Chicago for a measly five years, but my youngest sister was born there, so I'll always feel a connection with that city. I have a ton of friends who still live there. And even though we never lived in the rougher areas of town, I feel for the people who live on the rougher ends who get trapped in that lifestyle with no way out. You got people dying for no reason, and then even having innocent people losing their lives as well. It's not funny, it's a very real situation to those who face that reality every day, or know someone that does. I completely understand, and this is why Akademiks should've been more careful when touching these topics. You can't be ridiculing people for something serious and expect them to not check you. Never mind Chicago or rap shyt, that's true in life as a whole. Don't be poking bears unless you're prepared for the consequences. Just be glad it was Vic Mensa, and not Fredo Santana, of all people.

Other than that? I feel like Akademiks should leave Everyday Struggle, because it's clear that he's being disrespected left and right over at Complex. Joe shyts on him constantly, Nedeska doesn't seem to take him seriously... Sometimes it's better to take the long route and say fukk the money, because it just seems that he's become Rap's Punching Bag. Not that he hasn't earned it sometimes, but I can only imagine that there's only so much he's willing to endure. He's only human, so I'm sure it gets to him. Even the comment section in that new video with Lucci and Thug are filled with "Yo Ak, you should leave ES". It's the Internet age, he can build a platform by himself. There's YouTubers with not even a quarter of his subscriber count providing professional quality content, he has the reach to do the same. Be the black Philip DeFranco or something. At least he'd have the freedom to share and discuss the content he wants without having dudes yell in his face everyday.

The problem is the Chicago shyt was distasteful to the point that some folks will never forgive or forget. I think a lot of the issue between Joe and him has to do with his naiveté. He gives off the vibe that he's 26 going on 15. There's a lack of respect for Ak based off his rise largely being due to the Chicago shyt imo coming from Budden, but when he jabs back, it either comes off as a failed joke or just not taken in kind by Joe. At least that's what I see. There's a tiny bit of incompatibility with their personalities imo. If it's best for him in his opinion, then sure, but the man comes off too green. Gotta deal with real life.

 

[Still Benefited]

Imagine being sad for the rest of the day because some emo eye liner wearing suburban nikka calls you a bytch and wants to slap you. Akademiks keeps making himself looks like a bytch no matter what.

He still got one up on Budden since he aint actually been beat up on camera yet.

Joe can talk shyt if he want to

"Let one of you nikkas come up here and talk to me like that"

Yeah okay Joe,better get that ice pack ready


Mentioned he would smack akademiks about 3 different times,put his fingers through Nadeksas hair,damn AK

 

[delta]

damn, nadeska dont fukk w/ akademiks at all

after vic called him a bytch, she let vic grab her hair and touch her

also joe kinda fukked up by not steppin in.. it was clear AK was not ready.

if im akademiks i feel betrayed for sure...

 

[LEEeveryday]

The real questions are...

...who would ya'll rather exploit the violence?...Do you like your exploitation over a hard instrumental instead?

Cause some white man is getting paid off those other ways...

 

[delta]

I don't say anything online that I wouldn't say to anyone's face

Akademiks is a media personality. You get no points for attacking him sorry

I'm not even sure what he says that gets y'all so riled up in the first place

Like I said before, it's displaced anger/frustration

I remember watching Charlemagne's podcast on an episode that featured DJ Akademiks. CTG was telling him he had nothing to gain by doing this show and that his platform was already more relevant than Complex. Looking back on it...he was right. He's constantly getting sonned and disrespected on this show...and he honestly don't need this shyt.

yeah if this keeps going, shyt going to completely backfire on Complex

alot yall diss AK but he is the reason these videos getting 500k-1mil views. with just joe and nadeska? probably 50k... ak has given joe and nadeska ppl that probably never heard of them. not the other way around.

 

[ineedsleep212]

Folks on YouTube are really caping hard for this guy. You can feel like what Akademiks does is good in general and still criticize him.

Folks really saying because he was clowning the dumb reckless kids in Chicago and "wasn't generalizing the entire population" its ok. They keep calling it just satire. When a great deal of your coverage and commentary is calling a bunch of young black men c00ns and using nicknames as they get senselessly killed, it'll come across like you are essentially mocking them for their stupidity. There's nothing constructive out of that language. The folks that only see it as just jokes really have some maturing to do. I don't get this media personality thing being some kind of shield. By being one, you should know that your words matter. If he wants to market himself as a kind of hip hop journalist, then he needs to have journalistic integrity.

Personally I always saw those vids as Ak treating it like a safari expedition in Chiraq because they came across like those folks were just animals in the wild and here's how they died as he spoke as loosely as those kids did.

 

[thernbroom]

nikka tried to bully ak cause he knew he wasnt that type of dude. fu*k outta here. wale also. these nikkas weak as sh*t

 

[josuke]

those 2 highlight whats wrong with hip hop rn imo

 

[ineedsleep212]

Delete.

 

[Cadillac]

Complex needs AK more than AK needs complex

Sadly yes. Ak a bytch.

But nonetheless he is the major factor why this hip hop first take is doing 200k + a video. And much of it is him.

 

[Redwing80]

Only people defending Ak or the guys that want to be able to talk tough online with no consequences

Freedom of speech does not mean freedom of repercussions. Stop talking if you can't defend yourself. A couple of you internet nikkas need to get your jaw broke just so you can know shyt gets real.

Wish I could rep this twice. Vic Mensa was 100% right with what he said

 

[Olu Dara]

Wish I could rep this twice. Vic Mensa was 100% right with what he said

He was 100% right to get at him I don't think anyone disagrees.
What people are reacting to is the "I would of slapped you" talk. If you really wanted to slap him then just do it on/off camera, stop with the would've should've talk.

He did nothing before the cameras started rolling, shook Aks hand on camera then said I want to slap you. You had the opportunity to do it
