DJ Akademiks recently accused Ebro Darden of blackballing rappers and blamed him for DaBaby’s album flopping.
“I don’t have that power. If the fans ain’t coming to your concerts, and the fans aren’t streaming your music…the music is on every platform. If the fans really want to go stream your sh-t, they type in your name and stream your sh-t,” Ebro told BallerAlert.
He continued, “All programmers, all DJs, all radio people, they’re out in the clubs, they’re looking at social media, they’re seeing what people are sharing and streaming…if people are f-cking with it, people play it.”
Ebro went on to add that DJ Akademiks is “popping all that sh-t,” and that he doesn’t “come outside,” so he can’t confront him.
Ak has consistently claimed that Ebro’s role over at Apple Music means that he has a say over who gets played and who doesn’t. While DaBaby’s album might have flopped, NBA YoungBoy’s albums always do well, despite blackballing claims.
