DJ Akademiks breaks his silence.

As previously reported, the hip-hop steamer has reportedly been banned from Twitch following an explicit conversation he had with a 15-year-old.

Akademiks began to make headlines earlier this week after he made some inappropriate comments towards 15-year-old, NourGXD. “Yo, if [PlaqueBoy] Max said he wanted to try f*cking a dude, will you let him fuck you?” he questioned the teen. Nour then uncomfortably replied, “no.” In which Akademiks questioned, “Why not?”

AK has since been banned from Twitch- which he says he understands the decision. “Even though I wasn’t streaming,” Ak said. “That happened on their platform, completely get it.” He did say that he would continue streaming on other platforms. “Of course, we still stream on YouTube,” he explained. “Which, honestly, about 80% of our viewership came from YouTube, anyway.”

“Twitch, I respect their platform,” he insisted. “You gotta respect their rules.” He goes on to say that he’ll be keeping a low profile these days. “I kinda wanted to have a lower key stream,” DJ Akademiks admitted. “I feel like the sharks are just circling.”
