The attorney of a suspect in XXXTENTACION's murder is saying that both Drake and DJ Akademiks need to testify in the trial.

Share this page The attorneys are also demanding that DJ Akademiks testify. Its been nearly five years since XXXTENTACION was murdered in Florida at just 20 years old. However, his legacy lives on because of his expressive music that continues to touch his fanbase. However, the Florida native did have a rather controversial past with violent accusations. The suspect in his murder, Dedrick Williams, has pleaded not guilty. Now, hes calling on some big names to testify due to their alleged involvement.

Joe Budden, 6ix9ine, Quavo, Takeoff (R.I.P.) and Drake are on this list. New reports from AllHipHop indicate that the alleged murderer really wants Drake to testify at the trial. The testimony of the said Aubrey Drake Graham is material to the case, and it is necessary to take the deposition of the said Aubrey Drake Graham to prevent the failure of justice, says the document. Drizzy and the SAD! rapper had a documented beef that began in 2017. Upon the Toronto star releasing his More Life project that year, the Florida native took exception to one of its tracks, KMT. X publicly claimed that Drake was stealing his flow and cadence on the song. The track that hes allegedly ripping off is Xs mega-hit, Look At Me! Williams and his attorney allegedly believe that Drizzys talking about the murder in one of his most recent songs, On BS, is him talking about the murder. Damn, maybe I should do a twenty, maybe I should break that twenty, do a ten / Maybe I should break that ten, do a five, then if it gets live, do a five again / If he held his tongue on that live, hed be alive again, he raps in the second verse. Additionally, Williams and his legal team also want DJ Akademiks to testify in the trial. His attorney claims that the media personality consistently makes comments about the case while streaming. Mr. Allen, who goes by the stage name DJ Akademiks posted his podcast on December 21, where he openly discusses the case, acknowledges being served and states, I am not showing up to court to talk to yall n****s. It is clear that nothing short of a court order will ensure Mr. Allens participation in a deposition, the document reads elsewhere. What are your thoughts on the situation?
