Gillie Da Kid says he won't let guests on his podcast "control the narrative."

Fans believe Gillie Da Kid was throwing shade at either NBA Youngboy or Drake with a recent rant on social media. Filming himself in a hotel bed, Gillie explained why he is unable to land certain guests on his podcast. In doing so, he referenced the unnamed artists instead speaking with "a little white girl." Drake sat down with Bobbi Althoff for a polarizing interview, earlier this year.

"To all the people that's in my DMs that be like, 'Yo, get such and such on the podcast,' a lot of them people we reach out to but they don't come to us because they can't control the narrative," he said. "That's why they'll go to a little white girl that you've never heard of. Or that's why they'll go to a little white dude that you've never heard of because they can't control the narrative over here. We not recording you. We not sending you nothing to look at. We don't ask nut-ass questions. So, why would we have to send you something to review? We ain't doing that sh*t."

Gille continued: "So a lot of times when you see motherf*ckas and you're like, 'Get them on the podcast,' and they can't control the narrative. They don't wanna come. So, we don't want your b*tch-ass." When Akademiks shared the video on Instagram, one user commented: "Definitely talking abt drake zesty ahh." Another wrote: "I think he talking about YoungBoy and Drake." Others had more directly negative responses to his comments. "Why you mad a n***a wanna view sh*t before y'all put it out, y'all could say some slick sh*t I aint catch, then why you always speaking, it's really like wallo show cause if it was just Gillie nobody wouldn't even watch that shit being real," one wrote.
