DJ Akademiks says the bar for Drake is different.
DJ Akademiks may have already admitted that the so-called “Drake stimulus package” isn’t what it once was, but regardless, he recently argued no other artist had one to begin with. Addressing the topic on a new stream, Akademiks claimed neither Kendrick Lamar nor J Cole could ever guarantee an artist’s song would hit the charts.
“I’ll say that the Drake stimulus package is not the same at this moment, but here’s why I say it’s not the same,” he began. “Let’s be clear. Kendrick does not have a stimulus package. J Cole does not have a stimulus package. These other guys don’t have a stimulus package where they just hop on any song and it automatically charts. That was only allotted to Drake.” From there, he explained how criticism of Drake is similar to that of LeBron James. “When we talk about LeBron, we don’t use the same criticism for KD because we’re like, ‘KD’s not compared to Michael. LeBron, you are. So, we’re gonna use this unrealistic expectation for you because you’re compared to the greatest that’s ever lived.'”

It’s not the first time Akademiks’ has spoken on the stimulus package not being what it once was. During a stream in July, following the release of Drake’s collaboration with Camila Cabello, he remarked: “Drake’s wings, slightly, feel clipped. The Drake Stimulus Package right now, doesn’t exist. Drake going on Camila Cabello’s track didn’t do nothing.” Fans brought up this change in tone on social media in the wake of his more recent remarks. “But he is also the one that said and I quote the Drake stimulus package wasn’t working,” one user wrote.
