Desiigner Agrees With 21 Savage About Biting, Gets Trashed In The Comments

Desiigner signed to G.O.O.D. Music at the height of his popularity, releasing “Panda” and earning a couple of features on The Life Of Pablo. The last half-decade of his career has been a whirlwind as, today, he’s no longer signed to the label and is independently releasing music. He’s still got a following but it’s nowhere near as large as when “Panda” released.

Throughout his career, people have compared the rapper to Future, even claiming that he “bit” the Atlanta superstar’s flows and delivery. It’s undeniable that, in some of Desiigner’s songs, he sounds a bit like Fewtch. Still, he’s managed to make a career in music and has stuck around until now.

This weekend, 21 Savage called out several unnamed rappers (*cough* Lil Pump and Doe Boy *cough*) for biting his “Yessirskiii” hook, asking for 50% profit from anybody who uses a “Yessirskiii” chorus in the future. Desiigner slid into his replies to agree with Sav, telling him that he’s dealt with his fair deal of rapper stealing his swag.

“Same a lot of people use my sound effect,” said Desiigner. As you can imagine, people came flying at him with laughter about how he might be a little delusional.

“N***a, then u gotta pay Future,” said one fan. “Pay Pluto,” said another.

Nearly all of the replies to Desiigner’s tweet are calling him out for this take. Do you think that Desiigner influenced other artists with his sound effects?

DJ Akademiks questions if Lil Durk will get bond as the racketeering case goes on

Lil Durk’s legal battle is about to take another big step, and DJ Akademiks is already sharing his expectations for what could go down when the rapper returns to court in November.

Durk is in custody, awaiting his next VICAR case in which authorities say he was running a criminal enterprise. His next trial was set for October 5, but recent developments have called into question when those proceedings will occur.

Durk’s murder for hire trial recently resulted in a not guilty verdict in November. Regardless of that outcome, he remains in custody because the separate racketeering related charges remain unresolved. Durk’s attorneys have asked for the new hearing and have been ordered to appear by U.S. Probation and Pretrial Services, which also must submit a fresh bail report.

Against that backdrop, legal commentator Bradford Cohen had previously suggested Durk could eventually get bond. That view ties in with Durk’s not-guilty verdict in the earlier case, and the argument that the outcome could make it harder to sustain the remaining allegations.

DJ Akademiks sees things a bit differently. In a recent livestream, Akademiks predicted that Durk would not get a bond at the Nov. hearing. He believes the charges will stick and cites the seriousness of the allegations in the VICAR case as his reasoning. He also doesn’t appear to expect the rapper to be released from jail anytime soon as the case moves forward.

Akademiks’ prediction concerns the bond hearing, not Durk’s chances at trial. Durk’s legal situation remains unresolved for now. His recent acquittal has altered the circumstances of his arrest, but the separate racketeering case still looms over the rapper as both sides prepare for the next phase.

DJ Akademiks Resurrects 2015 Drake vs. Meek Mill Beef With Alleged Nicki Minaj Backstory

DJ Akademiks is digging up hip-hop history buried for 10 years as he offers his supposed explanation for how the Drake/Meek Mill feud came to a head in 2015. The back-and-forth between Akademiks and Meek Mill has resurfaced the conversation. Akademiks returned to the long-running Drake-Meek beef on his stream last night, saying a comment by Nicki Minaj had something to do with what happened between the two rappers.

According to Akademiks, Meek and Minaj were shopping at a designer fashion store when they got to the register. He says that when Meek told her he didn’t have the cash to pay for Minaj, she allegedly told him he would never be Drake. Akademiks also claims Minaj left the store on her own, and then Meek went on X, and what happened next started the infamous feud with Drake.

The account remains an allegation, not a confirmed explanation. The information provided has not been independently verified, and ultimately only those involved, including Minaj and Meek Mill, could confirm the story’s authenticity.

Whether his version of events is what actually happened, however, remains unresolved. Currently, the designer-store story isn’t factual, but it is Akademiks’ version of the events surrounding the beef.
