Akademiks Fires Back at BOF Over Dave Free Pressing Him Statement

DJ Akademiks is back in the headlines after taking aim at T-Rell and the BACKONFIGG podcast.

The tension sparked when BACKONFIGG commented on a viral moment where Akademiks was allegedly confronted by Dave Free at Kendrick Lamar’s Detroit show. They claimed Ak got pressed—an assertion he quickly shut down.

Akademiks responded by dissing the podcast, accusing them of chasing clout and trying to insert themselves into narratives for relevance.

The situation escalated further when Wack 100 stepped in, backing Akademiks and dismissing the idea that any confrontation even happened.

No Jumper also showed support, making it clear which side they’re on in this media clash.

What began as a single comment on a livestream has now turned into a broader debate about media credibility and regional influence.

Akademiks continues to position himself as a dominant digital voice, while BACKONFIGG remains a staple of L.A. street commentary.

As lines are drawn, this feud is starting to look like more than just personal drama—it’s a clash of platforms, influence, and culture.
