Akademiks Reacts To Pooh Shiesty And Big30’s Wild Court Case

Akademiks Pulls Up With The Hot Takes

Of course DJ AKADEMIKS was not gonna sit this one out. He hopped on X and dropped a whole video breaking down the BIG30 AND POOH SHIESTY situation after watching Big30 sit down with Big Bank on the Perspektives podcast. Keep in mind Big30 is currently out on bond with an ankle monitor, still waiting on a February trial, and he used that podcast time to shut down the snitching rumors going around.

Akademiks basically gave his play by play on the whole case, the alleged Dallas studio robbery, and what it means for Big30 talking publicly while the case is still open. According to Akademiks’ post, he thinks the timing and the interview itself says a lot. Make of that what you will.

So What Actually Happened In Dallas

HERE’S THE ACTUAL CASE before Akademiks even opens his mouth. BIG30 AND POOH SHIESTY GOT HIT WITH ARMED ROBBERY AND KIDNAPPING CHARGES after an alleged incident at a Dallas recording studio back in January 2026. According to XXL, the whole mess ties back to a record deal dispute involving GUCCI MANE. Yeah, the guy with the ice cream tattoo apparently got tangled up in a situation ugly enough to land two rappers in handcuffs.

Pooh Shiesty is still locked up and reportedly fighting 23-hour isolation. Big30 caught a bond and is sitting on house arrest with an ankle monitor, which is basically the world’s worst fashion accessory. Both deny the kidnapping claims. TRIAL IS SET FOR FEBRUARY 2027, so this story isn’t going anywhere soon.

Big30 Breaks His Silence While Rocking An Ankle Bracelet

BIG30 IS OUT ON BOND BUT HE AIN’T QUIET. Dude sat down with Big Bank on the Perspektives podcast while posted up on house arrest, ankle monitor and all, and said straight up he did not do the bad stuff he’s accused of in this whole Gucci Mane studio case. He also shut down the rumors going around that he snitched on anybody involved. According to the interview, Big30 wants everybody to know he’s not the rat people are making him out to be. DJ Akademiks caught wind of the sit down and jumped on X with his own reaction, basically breaking down what Big30 said and what it means for the case moving forward. Trial for everyone involved is set for February 2027, so this story is far from over.

Mark Your Calendars: Court Date Is Officially Set

FEBRUARY 2027 is when this whole thing finally goes to trial. That is a long time to wait, so expect a whole lot more drama, interviews, and random video clips before anybody steps in front of a judge. Right now the situation is wildly uneven. BIG30 IS WALKING AROUND FREE on bond with an ankle monitor, doing podcast interviews like he’s promoting an album. Meanwhile POOH SHIESTY IS STILL LOCKED UP, and according to recent reports he’s even been fighting 23-hour isolation behind bars. Big30 hasn’t abandoned him though, he reportedly grabbed Pooh’s chain back from custody and has been showing support publicly. So one guy’s doing interviews, the other’s stuck fighting solitary confinement. Rap beef usually ends with a diss track. This one might end with a verdict.
