The only way this lame can sell a show out is if the venue is in a basement.
Gotta appeal to your fanbase.

DJ Akademiks fans don't leave their basement..

Ive seen desus snd mero pack 5k venues in Detroit before the showtime. Surely this self hating c00n cant even muster 100 people?
His whole career isa mystery to me but I give the Breh props for how far he took it.
Seriously. If a mf offered me $20 to sit and watch this dude on a stage, I would very likely refuse to go.

Dirk interview got him up there. Not a usual thing for him.Pretty sure he's still getting paid
Spotify has been exposed for juking their stats. Akademiks is a Spotify exclusive podcast, so there’s a reason they’re promoting as a top show.Pretty sure he's still getting paid
I find that ranking very hard to believe when you see zero clips of his podcast circulating anywhere. Most people can’t even tell you who the most recent guest was

Weird, spotify shows ak's show at #92 for me
and yeah, no surprise there - just like with most of these awful podcasts, the main audience are young white people who comfortably live on the internet

i think the majority of his fans are kids with no income and people not from this country

plug couldnt trust you now u cant trust the plug
Nah akademiks is in his mid thirties and has been doing this shyt for a decade. Flakko and lil boom are examples of people that fall under his Fandom and they're in their mid - late twenties.
Akademiks just never did the work to have a big office presence.

Y'all focused on the wrong thing - this shows how much of a facade the whole online/streaming personality space is. There is nowhere near as much engagement as you think, most of it is automated, which means most of these brands are empty spaces being propped up to generate revenue.
It's the greatest finesse of the digital age outside of cryptocurrencies.

First, Ak doesn't have "fans" he has followers. Which are people who tune in for the fukkery. It isn't him as a person, its the news or shyt he talking about. Secondly, his followers are young folks. Like 14 to 22 and mostly white and latino kids. Grown nikkas ain't fukking with Ak like that or tuning into twitch or whatever platform he on. It's 10th graders name Juan in California who worship NBA Young Boy and Durk.
Ak or his team should've asked for a diff time slot. He gotta hold that L
I thought Spotify had regional charts. Also, they fudge the numbers heavily
