Wale glasses dirty asf
The finger prints 😂
@@Kkayy020 lol
His shades got mad finger prints
😂
Dude is the king of saying everything about nothing
Who tf was Ak’s stylist 🤣
Complex resurfaced this episode?? I could've swore they took all the full episodes Joe was on, and only showed clips.
Wale told Akademiks "we wouldn't have been in the same group in high school", lmao this dude using lines college girls use when they get catty at a frat party.
The Dude 😂😃😃😂😂😂 the more he talk more corny he sound
😂 and he pretty much called himself the cool popular jock, and Akademiks the loser follower 😂
The Dude that was so cringe 😖
😂🤣 I'm surprised he didn't show up in a varsity letterman's jacket.
"I was the guy that played football and got the girls"
nigga shut the fuck up... when you 30 years old, saying shit like that is the corniest shit ever
i cant help but notice the extreme amount of fingerprints on his shades
t YOOOO I literally searched the comments to make sure I wasn’t the only one who saw that lol
That shit was killing the whole interview I was thinking 🤔 dog wipe your shades 😎😂😂
Hahahahaha dying
Wale deadass told DJ Akademics, “Lemme tell you about yourself...”😂
Durias Rivers I love him 😂😂😂😂
He was about to cry
& somehow he still ended up looking cornier than Akademiks 😒😒
Wale the type of Nigga to hang around his old High School after graduating
Sergio Melchor I just hollered 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣
Sergio Melchor Lmfakoooooo ive never heard anything more hilarious than this
Lolol buying all the high school kids liquor
Sergio Melchor lol
Sergio Melchor Lmfao
How can you be insecure and arrogant at the same time lol
Ana Diaz arrogance usually masks insecurity..
Ana Diaz and you bad asf 🔥 🔥 😥 😥
Ana Diaz arrogance is insecurity...
THANK YOU! Ana Diaz!! I was thinking the same damn thing the whole time. What was killing me even more was the tone of voice. Dude was talking as if he was running a phone sex line. Lol plus he never answered AK's question about how does he think his fans see him.
Ana Diaz YES!
Wale is the perfect example of giving you a kanye mentality without obtaining the right amount of clout first.
Adam McMillan he's dropped also
This is so true
Angel Ramirez-Tellez you joking aye? He never was will or could be goat man hes losing his clout at tht
Tyrone James Kanye losing clout? Lol fui outta here
facts
Wale is 32 years old talking about the type of person he was in high school 💀💀
Joseph Ranieri 😃😂😂😂😃😂
......and? it's called a metaphor....
Flyght Myleage dude at 32 why tf are you talking about yourself in high school it makes you seem like a loser
Joseph Ranieri - well obviously people don't know what the word "metaphor" means...
Wale was and is a clown nigga. Cant you tell he was a clown nerd MF in High School real live bamaass nigga
Wale - "Who thinks I'm corny?"
Looks at this video's comments*
"Oh."
Latasha Smith that song trash asf
Latasha Smith lol you everywhere
Didn't thought of him as 'Corny' before but now I surely do.
Tiopapi Chulo lol
Wale sounds like he high on sleepin pills lolol
When ak tells joe "that's why you on complex nigga" lmfaoooooo
Wale is Hip Hop. He deserves more respect as an artist. He is sensitive because his art isn't being appreciated when mumble rap is. Everybody who thinks he is too sensitive is basic and probably too simple minded to appreciate his music.
When Wale said told AK "your fans dont come outside" I wanted AK to say "your fans dont buy your album" 😂
Will Ginkens that would've been a Haymaker! Bruhhhhh lol!
"But atleast my Fans supports me though...., look at where I am today. Do you know another Dj Akademiks? Right nigga"
Will Ginkens Wale would have took them scuffy ass shades off and beat AK ass 😂😂
That would be clapback of the century 😂😂⚰
-hurt and doesn't come outside
Joe be stopping the interview like he discovered the cure to aids
Birdman Hand rub Seriously.He has me cracking the F up.
Birdman Hand rub lmaaooooooooo
lmmfao
Birdman Hand rub EVERYONE STOP STOOOOP!!!!! WHAT THEIR DOING hahaha Nbs he be like that
Birdman Hand rub STOP EVERYYYYYY THING STOP EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW !!! Hahaha comment is to accurate
"I got a homie he a rapper and he wanna win bad. He want the fame, the acclaim the respect that's been had by all the legends. So every time I see him he stressing. Talking bout niggas don't fuck wit him, the shit is depressing. He so bitter he can't see his own blessings. Got damn nigga, you too blind to see you got fans nigga?"
"Always worried bout the critics who ain't never fuckin did it. I write what's in my heart don't give a fuck who fuckin wit it."
Wale personified Cole's bars to a tee in this interview lol
Just Bake facts
Wale is the most insecure, confident guy I've seen.
DrumJeter1985 W
DrumJeter1985 man is crazy passive aggressive. Like if he was a woman he'd be the type to always have an attitude
DrumJeter1985 i know at some point akademics has to stand up for himself lol
😂😂
Dont let this distract you from the fact that Jerry Sinfield doesnt leave the house for under a million dollars
Wale shades look like they got chicken grease on em
This nigga said corn grease, lmao
YOOOO 🤣🤣🤣
Lol i looked at Wale Shades and then cleaned my glasses 😂
jordan willis 😂😂😂
jordan willis 😂😂😂😂all them greasy fingerprints
Wow... WALE just made himself look dumb af.... first off it's very clear Ak got to him(which is sad in itself).... but then his defense to show how much cooler he is than Ak... he uses a High school popularity situation for an example if his life compared to Ak's .
Give me a break👎🏼
J.A.M cornball
This dude is corny..... And I'm pretty sure this nigga was not "getting all the hoes" 🤦😒
Wale going through the comments mad as hell rn 💀
Sho G 😂😂😂😂
Sho G he did, then he made a video about how he ain't corny while continuously being corny
Sho G LMAO
As soon as he started talking about "what type of guy he is" he fucked up big time lol
Sho G Faxx
man wale just showing how corny he is like the first ten minutes
Why is Wale talking like a bootleg Rick Ross?
yeah because he's fat with a beard... shut up
cringe worthy interview. idk what point wale was trying to make. Lol
Joe Warner rs!. He basically saying I'm rich and as long as I have a fan base he's good even tho it's massively declining it's okay with him lol
Nigga came in trying to sound smart and failed miserably that high school analogy was cringeworthy lmao
Really feel like yall missed the point of this whole interview
Wale acted like he just changed Hip Hop history by creating a song using a cocaine/female analogy.
Yep Its Anthony exactly it was dope but the concept has been done 1000 times he really think that went over people head
Yep Its Anthony NOBODY MENTIONED THAT LOGIC DID IT BEFORE WITH HIS SONG NIKKI!!!!
Yep Its Anthony 50 did the same thing with heroin in Baltimore love thing.
2pac did it on "me and my girlfriend"
the weeknd did it as well
Wale: 1 plus 1 is 5
Akademiks: No it's not, it's 2
Joe: DO THE FUCKING MATH IT'S 5, BASEMENT BOY !!!
dead
Simma Vibes in a nutshell
Simma Vibes 😂😂😂😂😂
Simma Vibes lmao this comment is on a whole level.
Another
Wale is wack he even faked a phone call from pusha T like FOH
Hahaha haha Fuck Yes!
I actually fuck with Wale BUT
He speaks so vague
He doesn't have the credentials to tell Akademiks that he doesn't have credentials
He lives in the past talking about the group he was in back in high school
& nobody views this dude as wild
I like his music and I've never thought he was corny until I saw this interview...
Exactly,forreal
I he actually really does. He been putting in work from a place where nobody repped and has albums that are very ill as well as mix tapes.
what do you mean WALE doesn't have the credentials to tell DJ AK he doesn't have the credentials??????????? He has every right, DJ AK is literally a twitter critic
How is he vague when he clearly explained everything he talked about ...
my thoughts exactly
Akademiks: Why dont u think ur selling?
Wale: Im different and check out my shoes, and listen to my music how i break it down HAVE UR HEARD CCWHITE???
EdRiv731 Lmao he really just started breaking that shit down outta nowhere 😂😂
Wale tryed to assassinate Dj akademiks character lol cause dj akademiks b speaking fact can't get mad at buddy for doing his job😭
i love when they resort to streets and money to establish what makes someone the winner...i dont always agree with Akademiks and i personal hate his POV of media i do feel like he put light on damaging things to the culture and i also feel where wale(who i dont care for) is coming as far as using your power to in-power the positive things going on in the industry and urban community instead of chitown violence and chain snatching...i say that to say i believe Akademiks speak from the FANS prospective with it from twitter youtube or ig
That "Phone call from Pusha" was planned lol,prolly wasnt even nobody on the line. Weirdo shit like that is what makes people call Wale corny
Harambe #D!cksOut lol ikr plus you can see from his shades reflection, it was on the home screen
Luther D. Strode forreal after you said I was like lmao but I paused it and you could see he was on the call screen. So somebody really called him
Hey, Wale is the G.O.A.T
Yatchy, 19, answered whatever question asked of him and wasn't demeaning to anyone but Wale who is close to 30 couldn't answer a direct question and chose to give personal attacks.
NOsaretin I always thought yachty was retarded before this show, but I changed my perspective after
agreed. also i think u mean *wasn't demeaning
Bro i swear. If you're a Wale fan or gave him benefit of the doubt how can you defend this? He made the case against himself and music rather than for him. We should put this episode in the vault never to be seen again. smh
what? im just saying you made a grammar mistake with what you wrote... you were saying yatchy answered whatever question asked of him and was demeaning to anyone. i think you meant to say 'and wasn't demeaning to anyone'
lol sorry i was responding to Jacky dagreat. Thanks, i fixed the mistake. lol
the high school part was the corniest shit in the whole interview 😂
Hell yeah lol.
Because you wasn’t a cool individual. So you can’t relate.
@@seancarter7954 that shit corny af to try to relive HS scenarios and I was in the homecoming court and varsity in two sports
@@sonnyjones313 nah, akademiks was corny. Stop hating on wale.
@@seancarter7954 this response was also corny
Wale - "im not corny"
Wears a t-shirt of himself
Dimitri yavel11 Sss 😂😂
That's Kurt Cobain dumbfuck lol
Dimitri yavel11 Sss Bruh I didnt even see that
thats how u sell merch smh
Dimitri yavel11 Sss that’s kirt cobain dog
Nadeska looks irritated af of Wale 😂
Wale: "im gonna grind like the soundcloud niggas, like the show niggas..."
Akademiks: "you should have been doing that though, right?"
NOOOOOOOOO! lmaoooo
Narley Davidson but if he felt like he was working hard he wouldn't have said that...
JordanLA16 did you actually listen to shine it's ard
Can we raise some dollas for wale to buy a windex spray bottle to clean his shades lmao
Ikr, dude can afford a new pair every single day but is too cheap to clean em wtf dude
Dumbest shit I've read all day 😂😂^
BxAxSxTxA y tho
or we can just put him in front of osn
Jeremiah jones WHO TF IS THAT, i searched but i cannot find out who he is
Proof that Wale is corny:
4:05
5:19
9:00
10:59
19:27
20:48
23:12
23:57
29:10
39:30
41:14
41:55
Goat
😂
baller84milw you the Goat Frfr
baller84milw 7:30
baller84milw accurate 😂💀
I feel like Nadeska is soo uncomfortable with his foot on the table😂😂😂
And she's trying to be a good hostess by not pointing it out.
I can clearly see the problem. Wale makes himself so damn unlikeable
Imagine this be like highschool. Wale be like the cool football player who doin shit and gettin bitches. Yeah basically, wale dig his own grave and sad it aint deep enough
+Great Scott I never thought of wale as a cornball until I seen this he only doing it because akademiks is a nobody
That is facts took only a few mins to see it
Niiell exactly, who wanna be around an arrogant person like wale, he's so unlikeable, joe more likeable than wale
Idk Dude for real, I was indifferent about Wale, but he's corny af.
Wale look and sounds how i talk to myself trying to be cool before i call somebody to argue with😂 bruh stopppp
How was DJ Akademiks riding Migos and Joe's behaviour here is not riding???
well one reason is because joe and wale are peers and are actually friends.
wale completely misunderstood everything that came outta akademiks mouth
literally
He wasn't trying to understand. You can tell he feels no one can tell him anything. Everything is someone else's fault, never his.
Complex yall need to go ahead and show Wale this comment section bruh lmaoo😂. Your boii is in denial.
Meek just passed the L to wale
TheRealKjay he's so wack.
Meek never really had a true L, I think everyone knows he permanently tarnished Drakes reputation, that was his goal no? So how did he get an L?
I don't think he was ever really going for mainstream appeal though
wale don't care about these corny ass 15 year olds that probably won't ever be shit 😂 he makes millions and has REAL LIFE approval. akademiks fans sit in the house all day.
Wale's ego is writing checks that his discography can't cash
FACTZ!
Sunny D best comment so FAR 😂😂
Then you've never listened to a Wale album, Don't speak on something you haven't heard.
Sunny D U WILD BRUH!!!! Lmmfaoooooo
💯😂😂😂💀💀💀
After this interview i can actually see why people think wale corny....
MSDS same here, he really played himself in this interview
How does this show he's corny? The only corny thing I saw in the whole interview was him showing off his jordans.
AssBoyz Ent. feet on the table, answering a call during a interview actin like he's the president, the black glasses on indoors, the fact thats he's downing akademiks for no reason ETC.... its a TON.
+MSDS the feet on the table is corny, but the rest of the stuff you named isn't corny it's entitled and too good. Too good does not equal corny.
MSDS i totally agree no decency... he trying so hard. you don't see yachty doing this shit!!
I'm not corny ... *Fake answers phone* "oh hey pusha, oh it's pusha calling me"
Lm0956 it was so damn obvious that no one was on the phone. He's a cornball 4sho
There was lol... You can see the reflection of a call in his glasses.
Joe Budden loved this interview LMAOO everytime Wale was going off on AK he was so happy😂😂😂
The Interview About Nothing should be the title of this episode
ACCURATE
kolboy757 W
Winner.
Wale downloaded the fake call app 😂😂😂
19 savage that fake ass phone call
lol this nigga lmao😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wale broke Ak down but nobody listening.
Kenneth M. Truth he ain't say nothing unknown
Naw he didnt
Broke him all the way down
That’s my point too , people claim he’s corny but they go about proving his point
Kenneth M. Truth day one chat niggga 🦂🦂 trying start wave peep the RUclips 📱
It’s almost October 2017 and Wale still 🌽🌽🌽
buLLthicc L got dropped
ask wale a yes or no question and he'd talk for 20 minutes and still not answer the question
Trey I'm fucking dying
Wale doin the Bow Wow challenge wit that call from Pusha😂😂
The Champ Lmao
The Champ I swear I seen the home screen through his shades
The Champ lmao
W
Joe was the heart and soul of the show.... It'll never be the same. 😳
Wale comes off as strong independent woman who don't need a man.
😂😂😭😭
Lollll im dying
How can this be so perfect! lmao
D.W. Uhuru LOOL
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀
this conversation was uncomfortable to watch...
Anu Cambell Right Wale soft as hell I can see right thru smudgy shades
Scotty Ferrall lmao
Ain't nobody call wale lol
Cali Boy Jaye Wavyy day one chat niggga 🦂🦂 trying start wave peep the RUclips 📱
"So Pusha look...when I get on Complex set, ima text you, and then right after that you gotta call me so I can stunt on Akademiks"
Wale trying to be cocky but we all know you mad insecure dawg
Antonio facts!!!
Antonio That is exactly what makes him "corny" he needs to be real to his self
Antonio 😂😂😂😂🤔
Antonio he would claim your comment is irrelevant because he only cares about his fans opinion 😂
lol right; he tries so hard to be "cool" and it's obvious af. He's an overcompensating ass nigga
Damn bruh take your feet off the table you don’t even have to raise em’ we see them. He IS corny but at the same time in this interview it worked because he used all the time to promote his music and make people aware of his credentials (which are pretty impressive).
P.S. I love Seinfeld. And why he keep referencing high school 😂
"KEEP THAT SAME ENERGY" LMFAOOOO
Wale is so corny because he tries so hard not to be.
Vivek it's hard to not be a poet and come off as corny but when you try so hard to put on a fiscade that don't fit you come off double corny
The only people who think Wale is corny listen to every artist on XXL 2016 cover.
These are facts, people.
This should be at the very top.
I'm going to have to agree with that. And that's a general issue with cornball dudes. They don't realize that if they just be their corny ass self, they'll get further...
Ak should've said , did you run up on ross like this, im just the youtube guy 😂
his a pussy, when there's no GIF's to back up what his saying, his like Superman when there's kryptonite around
*Afreakinlemon - 555-Blind* . Search that
"I'm with roscoe, I'm with flocka I think I deserve a chance" 😂😂😂

Wale ain't corny, he's unrated and slept on
Sandra definitely underrated
BASURA!!!
He is underrated but he is corny
Why Wale look like the ringleader of the squirtle squad
I wish this had more likes
B4DA$$ damn!!! That shit made me holler out laughing
B4DA$$ LMAO HE DO!!!
B4DA$$ yo a fool for that...
Yooooooooo
This video now has more views in a few hours than Wale had first week sales..... think about that.
Tegh Zoraver Dhillon millions of people have Spotify, tidal and Apple music. we're all aware of the album's existence. we can listen for free (essentially). and still nobody has.
Tegh Zoraver Dhillon Damn! well said
+Maxx White Wale sell out shows, but his fans can't buy his album
Wale has 5 million followers no excuses not to do 50+
Jaheim Perkins because not anyone who attends a concert is a fan
im from D.C. born and raised. Wale Corny...but his music is amazing...it’s his attitude that’s why ppl don’t fuck with him.
Slim this nigga from Gaithersburg md. Lol. No dc in him except that where the night life is.
wale the guy in school who thinks because he know the cool kids he is cool
joe dauda - Exactly. He cops the J's to be accepted by the cool kids. Notice how he unnecessarily showed off his Michigan 5's.
Man!!! You hit it right on the nose! perfect asssessment of him! And he's wayyyy too old too have that mentality
W lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

Nostalgic Paradise day one chat niggga 🦂🦂 trying start wave peep the RUclips 📱
Another example of AK continuing to talk and making a bad situation worse. AK think first then speak....this coulda been a great interview.
The Real Jaye² day one chat niggga 🦂🦂 trying start wave peep the RUclips 📱
"I'm a wild nigga. I'm unpredictable." - Wale
The only thing unpredictable about this nigga is how many times in a day he's going to cry about being overlooked in rap.
Jevvy Media 😂😂😂😂😂
(?))
Jevvy Media LOL
Only 1 minute into the video and I can Conclude why Ppl don't take Wale seriously.
Justin Omoi Anymore Sound Tutorials?
u better not do a wale vocal effect tutorial lmao
Yea, that's where I am right now.
Watch the whole interview
I seen it out in that same sitting. He doesn't like to take criticism at all, and tries to justify everything that he's doing. I mean I don't know em personally, but just judging from the video, it seems as if he feels he's on top of the world.
Btw don't hate me for saying that. Only calling it how I see it in the video. lol.
wale is great rapper seen him live a couple times. it was amazing will always be a fan.
Joe after the show "So wale I'm working on this song and I need one verse..... "
They actually been cool for years.. There is a video of them kicking it together at a cypher
Wale's shades dirty as shit😂😂😂
Somebody hand dat dude a lysol wipe 😁😂
GamingFresh 😂😂😂😂
exactly why people say wale is corny LMFAOOOOO
This was one of the most funniest and frustrating interviews I’ve ever watched Imfao
This comments section is SAVAGE! Lmaooo
