AceShowbiz - DJ Akademiks reignited his ongoing conflict with Lil Baby on June 8 after a leaked video surfaced showing the rapper calling Akademiks an informant, Xxlmag reports. The controversy escalated when DJ Akademiks publicly accused Lil Baby and several other Atlanta rappers—including Gucci Mane, Young Thug, and Gunna—of cooperating with law enforcement.

Vibe also detailed how DJ Akademiks labeled Gucci Mane as "Detective Gucci," Young Thug as "Lieutenant Young Thug," and Lil Baby as "Sergeant Lil Baby" in a series of social media posts. He further shared a group photo featuring the trio, with props implying their informant status. Yahoo added that the tension between DJ Akademiks and Lil Baby dates back to a period of mutual respect from 2020 to 2021 but deteriorated after Lil Baby blocked Akademiks on social media and later took aim at him in lyrics on his album There’s Only Me.

In response to the leaked video and Lil Baby’s recent disses, DJ Akademiks used his own Instagram to express frustration over being targeted instead of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who has leveraged rap lyrics as evidence in legal cases against rappers like Young Thug and Gunna. Akademiks implied he would cooperate with Willis if Lil Baby ever faced a legal probe, underscoring the seriousness of their dispute.

DJ Akademiks is known for his influential YouTube channel, which gained major traction around 2014 by covering the Chicago drill scene. He has built a multi-faceted career as a blogger, DJ, TV host, and YouTuber, often weighing in on hip-hop controversies and breaking news within the rap community.

This latest flare-up highlights how DJ Akademiks continues to fuel and extend his feuds, especially with prominent figures like Lil Baby who openly reject his commentary. The escalating exchange of accusations and public disses suggests their rivalry is far from over, with both sides showing no inclination toward reconciliation anytime soon.
