Meek Mill Tells Parents To Block DJ Akademiks After Grooming Incident Goes Viral

Meek Mill, like many, was disturbed by DJ Akademiks‘ behavior this weekend, as he was accused of grooming after engaging in a sexual conversation online with a 15-year-old boy. The Philadelphia rapper has since issued a warning to parents regarding the popular streamer, advising they block him on their kids’ phones and computers for safety reasons.

“If [you’re] a parent go get ya kids phone and block this man, he’s grooming children with a very large platform that ‘kids’ like,” Meek, 37, tweeted after a clip of the inappropriate conversation went viral. “Also attempts to ruin black families and black success daily, ‘VILLAN IN THE VILLAGE.’” His words captioned a screenshot of him preparing to block Ak on his own phone. See the post below.

Meek and Ak’s tension date back to 2017 when, according to Akademiks, Meek took issue with him not promoting Meek’s Wins & Losses album on his platform. “Meek, he didn’t appreciate I didn’t post his album,” he explained on a 2017 episode of Everyday Struggle. “However, it was really confusing to me ’cause about six months ago, Meek had sent me a DM. Him and the rest of the ‘Chasers, they gave me a little digital jump and a light one. They said, ‘Listen, either post us this way or don’t post us at all.’”

Ak went on to say that Meek and his Chasers crew later threatened him, resulting in him refusing to post Meek at all. “Next thing I’m seeing, they were threatening me,” Ak said at the time. “‘When I see him, I’ma gonna give him a wedgie, I’ma slap him.’ I’m like, ‘Oh shit! I think I’m posting them wrong.’ So, I stopped posting them.”

Meek later attempted to get Ak cancelled in June of 2020, tweeting that the streamer is responsible for gassing up beefs that resulted in a loss of life.

“Akademiks canceled because he’s a bad police and our culture don’t need them… he also gassed a lot of beef that got people killed and hurt and never donated a dollar to the culture! We gon holla at you next run champ lol.”

Six months later, Meek and Ak went head-to-head on the Clubhouse app, exchanging harsh words until 21 Savage began to mediate the out-of-control conversation. The pair have continued to go back-and-forth since, with no sign of resolution in sight.

Akademiks’ most recent incident found the streamer making inappropriate remarks to a 15-year-old boy during a session on fellow streamer PlaqueBoyMax‘s channel, including asking about his sex life and offering to perform a sexual act on the minor. Ak — who was previously accused of rape — was immediately faced with accusations of grooming, later admitting to his crass behavior.

“I’ve done a lot of bulls**t up in this game,” he said. “Trust me. I’ve got mine off. This issue aside – which, again. I am wrong. I will be better. This is a teachable moment. For me, obviously, I got to watch my speech. That’s clear. […] Definitely a regrettable moment, and we’re going to use it as a teachable moment. Because I don’t think I’ve came this far, built this platform, to be that irresponsible, right?”
