<p>Following DJ Akademiks&#8217; comments that hip-hop pioneers are &#8220;dusty&#8221; because of their lack of money, LL Cool J was upset. The rapper explained that money is not the only factor in making music.</p>
<p><a href="https://groundupradio.com/video-soulja-boys-everyday-struggle-interview-viral/">Akademiks</a> isn&#8217;t the first to make such remarks, having said similar things in the past. However, it&#8217;s still important to acknowledge the pioneers and not make light of their contributions.</p>
<p><a href="https://twitter.com/Akademiks/status/1572958387612299264">Akademiks</a> has long exalted rappers based on their chart positions, streaming numbers, and material wealth. He&#8217;s even publicly acknowledged that he gambles five-figure sums of money on various sports teams and rap events.</p>
<p>Akademiks&#8217; controversial comments on hip-hop have created a buzz on the internet. He&#8217;s one of the most polarizing figures in hip-hop, with some fans loving him and others loathing him. His opinions are still worth their salt on the Internet.</p>
