DJ Akademiks stirs up the music scene with his theory on The Weeknd and Drake.
- He suggests The Weeknd aims to ’embarrass’ Drake through album sales.
- Akademiks believes Drake might not worry due to a label switch.
- The longstanding rivalry between these artists adds layers to the speculation.
- Fans eagerly await the outcome of their musical showdown.
DJ Akademiks, known for his bold takes, recently sparked intrigue with his theory involving Toronto’s biggest stars, The Weeknd and Drake. According to Akademiks, The Weeknd’s new album ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow’ is a strategic move to outshine Drake in first-week sales. An exciting theory considering the history these two share.
Historically, The Weeknd and Drake have had their share of collaborations, disses, and partnerships. However, this time, it seems that the rivalry has intensified. Akademiks suggests Abel’s album release was perfectly timed to challenge Drake, fueling rumors of a tactical game in the music world.
Adding more fuel, Akademiks claims Drake plans to release his collaboration with PARTYNEXTDOOR under a different label, given his issues with UMG. Interestingly, Drake would just feature on the album, allowing his label partner to take the spotlight. This move could strategically sidestep The Weeknd’s supposed competitive tactic.
Whether or not The Weeknd truly intends to embarrass Drake with sales, the notion has fans buzzing. The rivalry offers a new kind of competition—one that’s more about commercial success than lyrical jabs.
Drake and The Weeknd’s rivalry dates back to various partnerships and fallouts, making this latest development even more thrilling. While Kendrick Lamar’s past confrontations with Drake paved the way for bold moves, The Weeknd’s approach offers a fresh perspective on artistic rivalries.
As the music world waits with bated breath, only time will tell if DJ Akademiks’ predictions will come true.
