DJ Akademiks texts Drake to not apologize like J. Cole.
The internet is still divided over the apology from J. Cole for dissing Kendrick Lamar on the song “7 Minute Drill”, and DJ Akademiks also slammed the Dreamville boss in a long rant.
During his recent livestream, Akademiks claims that he sent Drake a message to never apologize like Cole, and he also gets a response from the Toronto rap star. “I sent the video of what this f–k ni–a did,” he said. “I said, ‘Please, don’t do no sh-t like this. Please, don’t apologize and do no weird sh-t.'”
“[Drake] said, ‘I can’t f–king believe you would pull up and say some sh-t like that to me. You must not know me.'”
Akademiks sent Drake the video of J. Cole apologizing to Kendrick & asked him, “please don’t do no sh*t like this.”

In the Dreamville festival 2024, J. Cole states responding to Kendrick Lamar with a diss is the lamest thing he’s ever done. “I been following my dream and heading to The Fall Off in the way I wanted to do it,” Cole said. “I put out this project on Friday called Might Delete Later. I don’t know how many people checked it out or whatever. I swear to God, I’m so proud of that project because I know one: it’s just a lead up. It’s just the EP that leads me up to this thing that I’ve been working on for a long time and I know the work it took to get to a certain type of skill level and I love this sh-t so that sh-t mean a lot to me, right?”
“So, I’m so proud of that project except for one part. There’s one part of that sh-t that make me feel like, ‘Man, that’s the lamest sh-t I ever did in my f–king life,’ right? And I know this is not what a lot of people wanna hear. I can hear my ni–as up there being like, ‘Nah, don’t do that.’ But I gotta keep it a hunnid with y’all.”
“I was conflicted because I know my heart and I know how I feel about my peers,” Cole continued. “These two ni–as [Kendrick Lamar and Drake] that I’ve been blessed to stand beside in the game, let alone chase they greatness. So, I felt conflicted, because I know I really don’t feel no way, but the world wanna see blood. So, I say all of that to say, in my spirit of trying to get this music out, I’m not even gonna lie to y’all, I moved in a way that I feel spiritually feel bad on. Like, I tried to jab my ni–a back and I tried to keep it friendly.”
“But at the end of the day, when I listen to it… and I see the talk, that sh-t don’t sit right with my spirit. That sh-t disrupts my f–king peace… in the midst of me doing that… and trying to find a little angle and downplay this ni–a’s f–king catalog and his greatness. I wanna say right now tonight, how many people think Kendrick Lamar is one of the greatest muthaf–kas that ever touched a f–king microphone? Dreamville, y’all love Kendrick Lamar, correct? As do I.”
“So, I just want to come up here and be like, publicly be like, bruh, that was the lamest, goofiest sh-t,” he added.
