Akademiks interviewed Daphne Joy and she walked away saying she almost got him
The blogger finally had a real conversation with the woman who was at the center of the fight between 50 Cent and Diddy. She then shared a video in which she admitted she almost talked him out of his money. The joke is that she just did what the internet says she should not have done and won.
DJ Akademiks finally got an interview with Daphne Joy, but the most interesting part wasn’t the talk itself. The blogger who says she doesn’t believe in tricks admits on camera that she almost got him to give her money in the reaction video he posted right after.
For those who want to know more, Daphne Joy has been a figure in other people’s stories for years. The wife of 50 Cent’s son. A name that got caught up in the big Diddy affair. Last but not least, she was the subject of a private tape that was leaked and that she did not want to be shared. This is a violation, not a joke, no matter how the internet acted on it. She didn’t get to say much for herself during all of it. Then, for her first real sit down, she chose Akademiks. It’s not 60 Minutes. Not a couch for the day. Academiks.
She said the things you’d expect from someone who has been in the news for years without a microphone. She says she feels judged and confused, and that people keep telling their own story about her. She wants her story back. He asked her the mean things he always does. She laughed and said a few one-liners to deal with them, and she never lost her balance.
The after video was what caught him. Akademiks went on his stream with a sense of awe and told his viewers that he never tricks and never will. But he also said in the same breath that he almost logged into his account to send her a deposit anyway. He said that he finally knew how she was linked to 50, Diddy, and everyone else. He said she was good at it. To all the women watching, he said, “Go learn how she talks to men. She can make you feel ten feet tall whether you deserve it or not.”
He made it seem funny. It’s also funny. You should listen to what he said, though, because he missed the point.
Daphne Joy has been pulled for years because she gets along with other people. She can read a room and a guy and give him just what he needs to open up. She is convincing and charming. People have a word for it when a woman does that, and it’s not a praise. People call her a mistress, a manipulator, and a con artist. However, Akademiks did not call it manipulation when the same skill was used against him in one exchange. He called it skill. He told her she was special. Everyone in the room was told to take notes.
