While rap music itself has dealt with a series of massive beefs throughout 2024 so far, the media surrounding the genre is also in the midst of a major confrontation. It began when Adam22 claimed that there was a “big three” in rap media including him, DJ Akademiks, and Vlad. His comments mirroring Kendrick’s recent dismantling of the “big three” narrative surrounding him, Drake, and J. Cole probably wasn’t a coincidence. In his comments he also took shots at Joe Budden by downplaying his influence over the rap scene.
In the days following the claim DJ Akademiks agreed with Adam22. He tried to draw a line between the daily streamers and Budden, who only hosts a podcast. Budden clapped back at him poking fun at the very idea that there was a “big three” in rap media in the first place. Now Adam shared a response to that post via Twitter. “Joe Budden checked Socialblade, realized he’s not in the top 3 and deleted this. Sad day for the Joe Budden fans. Your leader does not stand on business,” his tweet reads. Their beef doesn’t appear like it will be slowing down anytime soon. Check out the most recent shots taken between the two media personalities below.
