DJ Akademiks responded to Freddie Gibbs' recent accusation about having blackballed him by calling out the $oul $old $eparately artist for having had his "ass beat twice." Gibbs' fifth solo album was released on September 30.

When accusing Akademiks of blackballing, Gibbs was responding to a claim made by the podcast host, in which Ak accused Ebro Darden of doing the same.

"@Akademiks said @oldmanebro blackballin rappers when he been trying to take me out the game for 2 years lol," Gibbs tweeted.

"Ya sales cut in half since u been tryna get at Big Ak," Akademiks wrote in response. "Also u got ur a** beat twice .... n***a u gotta rethink life. You Flopped and got Flipped by Jim Jones and Benny the Butcher. Pick up a stick n***a." 

Akademiks added: "You Flopped cuz you got stomped out by your opp in a BBQ spot and was suppose to be gangsta.. that sh*t aint gotta do wit me fool. U gotta learn to spin a block. ya opps up 100 on u." 

Ak was referencing the reports that Gibbs was jumped by members of Benny The Butcher's crew at the Dinosaur Bar-B-Que in Buffalo back in May. The two former collaborators have been trading shots in the months since.
