DJ Akademiks and DJ Vlad had a heated discussion about the implications of Lil Durk's lyrics that sampled screams from Quando Rondo after witnessing his friend's murder. DJ Akademiks clarified the misconception that Lil Durk is charged for his lyrics. Instead, the lyrics are being used to contextualize the broader charges against him. Vlad pointed out that Lil Durk's music may have capitalized on the tragic event by incorporating audio from Quando Rondo's reactions, but DJ Akademiks emphasized that the legal system examines whether the lyrics align with alleged crimes, rather than being direct evidence. Additionally, they discussed the impact drill music has had on gangsta rap, highlighting its tendency to explicitly narrate criminal scenarios and its influence on social media interactions. DJ Akademiks and Vlad agreed that blending real-life incidents into music invites legal and social controversies that artists should navigate wisely.
