DJ Akademiks Teases That Drake’s Next Interview Might Be With a Media Powerhouse

In a recent chat on VladTV, hip-hop commentator DJ Akademiks dropped a compelling hint that Drake could soon sit down for a major interview — and it won’t be with the usual suspects.

While Akademiks stopped short of revealing the name of the outlet, he made it clear this is more than a routine press stop. “If it happens, it’ll be legendary,” he said, sparking widespread speculation about what’s behind the move.

According to the conversation, Drake is leaning into a “major and unexpected” platform — one that’s “completely left-field … you won’t see it coming.”

Naturally, social media erupted with guesses. Some fans think the interview might address Drake’s ongoing lyrical exchanges — including his headline-making tension with Kendrick Lamar. Others believe it could tie into the rollout of his rumored new album, ICEMAN.

What’s notable: Drake has long shunned traditional media outlets in favor of direct-to-fan channels, making any shift back into high-profile interviews all the more intriguing. If this rumored sit-down comes to fruition, it could very well be one of the most-watched hip-hop media moments in years.

With Drake reportedly choosing a platform “no one would expect,” that leaves one big question — where should he go?
