“Drake left my vocal sample on the record that got officially released that I can get some free plaques off the record going multi plat,” the controversial blogger wrote. “My n***a.” Akademiks then went on to Tweet several of the most hard-hitting bars from the song.

AK was the first to play the original diss track on his live and he was swept off his feet after finding out that his own voice is used in the song. “No f*ckin’ way am I on the song,” he said upon noticing it. “Am I on the song? I’m not on the song…”

In the snippet, Akademiks is heard shouting, “What top five you smoking on, Kendrick?” In the original video, he goes on to say that Drake takes up every spot in his own top five.

Earlier this week, Akademiks revealed that Drake reached out to him to tell Kendrick Lamar to drop his response diss track, so they can get active. “The only thing he wanted..  he said ‘Ak when you get on that Podcast n*gga. Let these n*ggas know, tell that motherf*cking n*gga Kendrick to drop the sh*t that we can get active.’”

“His words exactly.. ‘let’s get active’. That’s what he said.. let’s get active, tell him to drop that we can get active,” Ak added.
