He literally stated both complex and Spotify were open to working with him again and ak didn't refute it. The only thing Spotify told ak was that he shytted on them before, but even ak wasn't saying they would never work with him again.

I know Joe's a piece of shyt and makes himself very easy to hate, but a lot of yall are letting whatever you have against him block what's actually going on.

Ak literally said he went to Spotify saying him and Joe may work on something again, they didn't say no, just that he shytted on them before. Joe said they were still open to working with him and had meetings for a year over his price and even with "ak cooking him" he didn't refute that or the complex point

All signs are pointing towards them doing something together that Spotify is interested in, or at least that's what it's sounding like off the two or 3 hours I heard so far.
That's business. You don't close any doors. No company that's going to blackball anybody is going to come out and say they're blackballed. Especially not to somebody as messy as AK. Joe is a big name. Spotify and Complex can use him as leverage as well which is why they wouldn't put anything out publicly that they'd never work with Joe again. Obviously none of us know one way or the other. But say they have another hip-hop personality they are negotiating with. They can throw out they are also in talks with Joe as a way to get them to accept a smaller contract.

Lol not smile too hard :manny:

They are in the same boat
Not really.........they got lawyers looking over stuff.......they know their role. They on salary. They not looking to get ownership. :manny:

Sidequestion: Isnt Ian Joe's business person that looks over shyt? How did they let Spotify rock with paying them all from net?Where were Mal/Rory's lawyers? Seems like any competent lawyer/business person wouldnt let that slide. :patrice:

They actually are lol. They'll be fired and the next bunch will be rolled in. I keep going back to Joe saying he foresees the podcast evolving to just being him. I get it, Ak got his jokes off....but don't laugh too hard. shyt, even Ak mentioned it

I get it that Ak gonna talk shyt about Rory and Mal, but it's wild that Ice and Ish sitting there smiling while he's shooting.

And they were quiet when asked if they were cool with them. I think Mal's slick comments rubbed them the wrong way

I would genuinely stop watching. He needs someone to bounce off and it can't be just Parks

shyt was left unaddressed and on the table. even in rory and mal's confession tape they tip toed around a lot of stuff. it was definitely a bit too long tho

I guess. It just doesn't seem like anything is gonna change ppl's mind no matter which side they land on and I personally find Akademiks obnoxious.

The last 40 minutes of Akademiks podcast released yesterday is about Joe

- Van Lathan said he regrets looking out for Joe when Cyn wanted to go on his podcast.
- He was blindsided by Joe's rant and everything said about him was a lie
- They both agree Schultz is bigger than Joe
