DJ Akademiks has turned his latest online clash with Meek Mill into a visual warning, posting a video of his gun collection after the rapper asked followers for his location and said he wanted to stream outside his New Jersey home.
The long-running feud between DJ Akademiks and Meek Mill flared up again over the weekend, this time in the aftermath of Lil Durk‘s federal acquittal. Meek criticized Akademiks’ role in hip-hop media and called on fans to unfollow and mute the streamer, arguing that his coverage has fueled damaging narratives around artists.
Meek then escalated the online exchange by asking followers where Akademiks lived in New Jersey and saying he wanted his first stream to take place outside the media personality’s home. In one post, Meek stressed that he was talking about “no illegal activity just trolling,” while continuing to challenge Akademiks publicly and promote plans for a Dream Chasers streaming push.
Akademiks later answered with a video that showed a large display of firearms, a clip widely interpreted as his response to Meek talking about showing up near his home. He did not appear to fire a weapon or identify a target in the footage, but the gun collection post pushed an already heated internet feud into more serious territory.
The latest round started after Meek took issue with Akademiks’ coverage surrounding Lil Durk’s trial and acquittal. Complex reported that Meek accused the commentator of fueling hip-hop beefs and criticized the role his platform played in the broader trial conversation, while Akademiks’ own connection to the case had already drawn attention when he said a prosecutor’s comments put his safety at risk. Akademiks later shared a screenshot that appeared to show repeated calls from Meek and wrote, “Goodbye Meek.”
The tension is not new. The two have traded insults and accusations for years, including a heated Clubhouse exchange dating back to 2020, but this week’s back-and-forth is also becoming a fight over who controls attention online. Meek says he wants to build a streaming presence capable of overshadowing Akademiks, while Akademiks has continued using his own channels to answer him, making the dispute as much about audience and influence as personal animosity.
As of publication, there has been no verified in-person confrontation tied to the latest exchange. Akademiks’ gun video remains a social-media response, not evidence that Meek arrived at his property or that any physical encounter took place, even as both men continue to keep the feud in public view.
