DJ Akademiks Signs Top5 To His New Record Label, Says He Spent $25 Million

DJ Akademiks is a label boss now. He broke the news on social media and said he signed OVO goon Top5, Pressa, and other Canadian artists. 

Ak said he spent a whole lot of money to launch the label on top of that.

"Akademy Records. I told you I was launching," he said with his artists next to him. "Listen, I dropped a $25 million bag. I had to do it. First signee to Akademy Records, the biggest demons outta Toronto. Y'all artists, you don't have a hit song, y'all not dripping like this. It's gonna take a while. Let me tell you this, $5 mill. I signed him for $5 million in his pocket. This guy's been rich. I gave him $5 mill just because. When these guys drop, big Ak is behind them. There's no bigger voice than me."

Ak is a known Drake supporter, and he sided with him during his beef with Kendrick Lamar, so signing a bunch of Canadian artists shouldn't be surprising.

Do you think his label will be successful?
