DJ Akademiks has reignited his feud with Ebro Darden, following the latter’s dismissal from Hot 97 back in December. Their contentious exchange has been heating up, particularly after Ebro’s recent comments dismissing Akademiks’ claims regarding a smear campaign against Drake.
In a Twitter spat earlier today, Ebro laughed off Akademiks’ request for evidence to support claims that Drake utilizes PR teams to manipulate narratives about him. Ebro’s reaction, filled with laughter, showcased his disbelief at Akademiks’ assertions. “Evidence?!?!? This guy is asking for evidence?” he quipped, clearly unfazed by the ongoing discourse.
However, Akademiks quickly countered Ebro’s jabs, highlighting the reasons behind the radio host’s firing. “Respectfully Ebro… you never got smeared by nobody,” he shot back. “You got fired ’cause you suck at your job of entertaining and laughed at because you acted like you were bigger than the program.” He went on to criticize the low viewership of Ebro’s show, stating, “Yes, your employer doesn’t want dead weight on the payroll. Ya FIRED.”
The back-and-forth continued as Akademiks pointed out that the media landscape has changed, with figures like Ebro finding it difficult to maintain relevance after their peak moments, often linked to hating on Drake. “The simple truth is media guys now trying to blame Drake for their demise without acknowledging most people saw their peak as hating on Drake during the battle,” he asserted.
Akademiks didn’t stop there; he also took aim at Ebro’s views on Lil Uzi Vert, criticizing him for moving the goalposts regarding the artist’s career achievements. He emphasized the need for media figures to adapt to the evolving music scene rather than cling to outdated perspectives. “You can be like Ebro and think you’re bigger than the program. Or realize when you’re wrong,” he noted.
As the drama between DJ Akademiks and Ebro continues to unfold, fans are left to wonder how far this rivalry will go. Stay tuned for further updates on this ongoing saga from hiphopraisedmetheblog.com.
