DJ Akademiks is taking his escalating beef with Maino to a legal level.

During a heated livestream, Akademiks claimed he has already taken steps to protect himself, alleging that he has applied for a restraining order against the Harlem rapper and is prepared to press charges if things turn physical.
“I’m filing charges. I’m filing charges. I can’t wait,” Akademiks told viewers. “Chat, there’s no honor in getting your a** beat like this.”
The media personality made it clear that he has no interest in handling the situation through physical confrontation, saying he believes the conflict has moved beyond internet banter.
“Matter of fact, I ain’t gonna lie to you…I’ve already applied for a restraining order on Maino,” he said. “Because Maino, one of them, like, Taxstone crash out n***as.”
Akademiks doubled down on his stance, insisting that if Maino were to approach him in public, he would immediately involve law enforcement.
“I already got a restraining order on him already. Yup. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm,” he continued. “Maino see me, and he try to run down, I’m sending Maino to jail. Yup. Mm-hmm.”
The rant appeared to be fueled by the ongoing war of words between Akademiks and the “Let’s Rap About It” podcast hosts, which initially sparked after Akademiks made jokes about Fabolous’ fashion and was later roasted by Maino in response.
Maino responded to Ak’s legal threats by reposting his clip and continuing to troll the media personality.
“Nah I Ain’t Nobody’s Crash Out! And I Never Had Any Intentions Of Harming This Jar Of Relish. I Just Asked Him To Give Us A Detailed Explanation On Why He Thought It Was Cool To Have A Gay Sex Conversation With A Minor smfh,” Maino captioned the post, referring to a viral situation where Ak was called out for being inappropiate during a livestream.
The beef does not appear to be dying down anytime soon, with both parties refusing to wave the white flag.
