Still sleep on don trip
Germany jersey 🤔
How can you drop no music and be a mvp… people ride the fucking cock of kendrick i swear😂 hes good but everyone rides the fucking dick of kendrick and cole like its annoying
How TF is Drake on look alive a good verse. That had to be the most lazy verse of the year. That's disrespectful to Push, Royce, Cole, Jay, Thought, Nipsey, Jigga, Nas…… Wtf come one man!!!!!!
I'm sorry….. Album of the year: Daytona. Verse of the year: Story of adidon. Mvp: Pusha T and Song of the year: either The Games we play or Infrared
Nadeska, you’re a fucking dumb ass who argues with legendary guests.. control your hormones! and akademiks has good commentary, but you gotta chill.. Wayno da man
Ak the type of nigga that keeps pulling his shit out so the rolls don’t show
this show is trash with out joe.
Only thing I can agree with Ak with is he can separate ye’s music from his antics. Other than that this dude is dumb af
What happened to the other original guy
mainstream bullshit.
Waste of Talent was slept on tbh That shit was fire asf fr 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ak can’t dress for shit 😂😂😂 just like some of these Youtubers you don’t even have to Wear designer at least look presentable
Where the fuck is Skies at ROTY?
Good that rich got recognition
Album should be Daytona,
Eminem's verse on Chloraseptic (Remix) might've been the hardest of all time
Song: Motiv8 by J Cole, or Sad by X
Props to shout out Sheck Wes-Mo Bamba
Big niggas always snoring 😴
You can tell Ak didn’t listen to Everything is Love.
X was the biggest thing of the year in my opinion rip x
Verse Frank Ocean on Purity
Don’t sleep on Okra verse doe
He was experimenting on Testing…..
Bruh the albums called Testing
Album : Black Panther Soundtrack
Song : Praise Da Lord (Da Shine) – A$AP Rocky
Video : A$AP Forever – A$AP Rocky
MVP : Cardi B
Rookie of The Year : (any suggestions?)
Ak dancing is awkward. Nigga please stop!
Top album: 1. Trouble – Edgewood; 2. Lil Baby – Harder Than You; 3. Migos – Culture 2.
Song of the Summer: Tyga ft. Offset – Taste
Best song: 1. Look Alive ft. Drake (should be ft. Blocboy JB). 2. Gods Plan 3. Praise the Lord ft. Skepta; honorable mentions 4. Come Thru ft. Weekend; 5. White Sand ft. Travis Scott, Ty Dolla, Big Sean and 6. Supastars.
Best verses: Clear to me that already the clear #1 is 1. Drake – Emotionless. Now after that it's mostly opinion and feel. I think that 2. Lil Baby – Life Goes On has the best feel verses, whether you prefer the Gunna verse or the Uzi verse. Both are truely great. And I'm gonna go 3. Mill Will – Aries (YuGo) P2 verse 4 by Slim Jxmmi.
Moment of the Year: 1. Kanye's autism cant be topped, 2. the fake Drake-Pusha beef, 3. Meek prison dilemma.
Video of the Year: 1. Gods Plan. 2. This is America. 3. Ric Flair Drip.
Rookie of the Year: 1. Lil Baby. 2. Gunna. 3. Whoever, don't really care beyond that. lol
Love this show… miss joe screaming tho
So its just fuck big krit huh?
I want Wayno’s demo tape!
i had to log off when they gave look alive verse of the year
"?" Was the best album of the 2018
RIP Xxxtentacion
Best project of 2018 Polyester – American muscle 5.0 hands down
Feel like Chris webby could be on the list of Lyricist who has bars this year just my opinion
whackademiks
I feel like Ak "loving X and his music" isn't genuine. He's just loving every track he's made because he's dead now and he's riding a wave to pander
Luv ya Nedeska! Keep reppin for the ladies! U hold it down
This should have been an epic episode. It kinda fell flat. Typical of late hence me watching it days after posting as opposed to my asap views when it was new. Now that team No-Joe-No-show have settled…. it's time to urgently address the fact that his huge persona can't be replaced by Wayno….. it wasn't even nearly replaced by Star who I rate but he's in a different lane. Wayno is cool and should stay but we need a big personality or someone with big opinions. Complex…..throw a bag at Murs at Hip Hop DX as an easy option. Anything is better than this coz I want to watch this but I find it harder each time mostly.
No love for MAXO KREAM
Slump god tape was good
