Fans were surprised to see Ak was no longer on IG.

DJ Akademiks is easily one of the biggest commentators in the rap world. Overall, he has built a massive platform for himself, and it has been impressive to watch. Although there are plenty of fans who dislike what he stands for, others have shown a strong fandom for the man. His Instagram account has millions of followers, and they go to his page every single day for news and updates from around the rap world. Of course, he has been a huge source of information throughout the Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud, mostly thanks to his connections to the OVO camp.

Interestingly enough, fans realized yesterday that Akademiks' Instagram account was no longer up. Instead, it appeared to have either been deactivated or suspended. It was a pretty bizarre thing to witness in real-time, especially since this is a huge moment for Ak and his coverage. Furthermore, this all happened in the midst of the EbonyPrince2K24 fallout. For those who aren't aware, an account claiming to have inside information on Drake was debunked as a journalist at the center of all of this, put out a statement proclaiming Drake's innocence.

Overall, this saga was incredibly weird and offputting. However, as it pertains to Akademiks, fans started to come with theories as to what went down. Some believe he was just suspended for some of the content he was posting. Although some seem to believe that he was spooked by the EbonyPrince2K24 stuff and nuked his own account. Interestingly enough, his alternate accounts are still active on IG. Moreover, his Twitter accounts are still up. Needless to say, we'll just have to wait and see what Akademiks has to say.
