Akademiks’ Instagram Account With 4.5M Followers Deleted

    Love Akademiks or hate him, he’s become a consistent news source for pop culture, especially Hip Hop. But some people have noticed his main Instagram page — which boasts over 4.7 million followers — has mysteriously vanished from the social media platform.

    Even stranger, the outspoken media personality hasn’t addressed the Houdini act on Twitter nor his Twitch channel. Akademiks’ Instagram account has been deactivated before. In November 2021, his page was reportedly shadow banned by Instagram before it was removed completely.

     

    Akademiks has had his share of drama on social media. Last month, the dormant beef between Akademiks and Hot 97 radio personality Peter Rosenberg was revived. As Megan Thee Stallion, Tory Lanez and Akademiks waged war over the felony shooting case, Rosenberg tweeted, “Akademiks talks a lot of trash for someone who would go broke in Twitch and YouTube got shut down. Barely surviving this ratio. lol Ak really got man fans for real.”

    The former Everyday Struggle host hopped on Twitch and proceeded to lay into Rosenberg until he was screaming at the top of his lungs.

    “Rosenberg, I probably made more this year on Spotify than you’ve made your entire career at Hot 97,” he said. “Bro, I’m on your ass … I don’t fuck with y’all n-ggas. Y’all been new. I never apologized to none of y’all. I ain’t fuck with y’all. I created my own shit, so good. I’m glad you said that. It’s on now, great! Perfect.”

    Freddie Gibbs Says He's Down To Squash Jeezy Beef While Dismissing Akademiks Feud As 'Corny'

    Then there’s the ongoing beef between Akademiks and Freddie Gibbs, which came to a head in 2020. Gibbs went as far as making Teletubby t-shirts that said, “Fuck Akademiks!” but ultimately dismissed the entire feud as “corny.”

    1. if white folks love and revere worthless thugs who destroy their own community do black folks make worthless thug music?

        1. The term white as it applies to colonizing the world is a little broad yea? But hey you go ahead and drop that science here where noone knows what youre talking about. Good god white people really have people shook, we are going back hundreds if not thousands of years. Nevermind the dark skinned folks who took slaves to the coast to sell them after lying to them to get them on the boat. Lets blame the colonizers, they are the real enemy here lol. They were opportunistic my friend, thats something you can also be when you stop blaming 300 year old men for your problems. Good day sir.

          1. Love how defensive white people get when you call them out for enslaving, murdering and raping every other race on the entire planet. That white guilt must really be eating you alive

            1. Why so angry fella? Its only Monday go get you some fresh air and stop thinking about enslavers and murderers and rapist stuff. Your other screen name talked about colonizers, didnt realize that would hit such a sour patch for ya pal.

    2. “the shade room” is way more toxic than ak ever was yet they refuse to delete it cause it’s run by black females.

      1. Thank god! Black women have been the most unfairly treated group in American history. You should be celebrating dummy.

    3. Wow we’re seeing the deplatforming of one of hip-hop culture’s worst voices. I’ll give him credit though, when he isn’t focused on bs…which is rare, Ak really did help introduce some young artists to a wider audience when they first started out. Still, happy he’s gone.
