I don't get the Akademiks hate. People need to stop trying to force civilians to adhere to street codes. He is not forcing any of these street dudes to talk to him and a lot of stuff he report are things these street dudes are posting themselves. If 2 gangstas are going back and forth on social media posting threats online, showing off guns, drugs, admitting to crimes, videotaping crimes and he and other blogs repost what they themselves put up. How that wrong. Where is the same energy for other blogs,news pages? TMZ does worse stuff. TI called them out for going and posting his sisters autopsy/drug report for no reason & they posted Kobe's death before his family was notified. And if that the case wheres that same energy for World Star Hip Hop.
If your recording yourself doing crimes or just reckless out in public and someone records you that's your fault. It can be private and 'street business" if you're posting it online yourself.
And this is why I didnt join that Free Meek campaign. Was he excessively punished with long-ass probation...yes? But was given more chances than a less famous person would be given. Some crazy Meek fan may attack Akademiks to gain Meeks approval. If DJ Akademiks was "talking shyt" then what did Safaree and Quetin Miller do? His boys jumped both dudes when they did nothing to him. These sensitive ass rappers & their friends are always trying to intimidate people just doing their job or posting an opinion. Always wanna be a tough guy with other black people, try putting the greenlight on Harvey from TMZ. Same as the 4 dudes trying to jump Charlamagne and Birdman showing up with a bunch of goons.
