DJ Akademiks talked about the controversial statement made by Kanye West that he created musical styles of artists such as Drake, Young Thug, The Weeknd, Future, and Travis Scott. Akademiks agreed with this, affirming Kanye’s influence in shaping these musicians' careers. The conversation also touched on rapper Boosie, who pushed back on Kanye's statement. Vlad and Ak agreed that Kanye’s influence did not extend to him, citing Boosie’s distinctive Louisiana sound. Returning to the theme of Kanye's influence, they also discussed an incident involving a dispute over Kanye’s clothing line, in which Akademiks lambasted Kanye for lashing out at Kai Cenat and defended Kai or expressing his view, which moved into a heated livestream call with John Monopoly, Kanye West's manager. Akademiks concluded on the note that miscommunication led to the escalated incident.
