DJ Akademiks Says Lil Baby and Lil Durk's Joint Tour Is Flopping At the Box Office

Lil Baby is one of the hottest artists in the world in terms of album sales [mostly streams] and Lil Durk does decent numbers.

So one would think their joint tour, which is being headlined by Baby, would be popular among the people.

Apparently, that's not the case.

According to DJ Akademiks, who said he spoke to two insiders, sales of the arena tour have been soft. [Jump to 2 hours 2 minutes.]

"Lil Baby’s trying to do arenas about 10,000 to 15,000,” Ak explained on the Flagrant 2 podcast. “They said his tour’s doing bad. You’ll never see him post that his tour is sold out, they said it’s not selling that much.”

Ak went on to say Jack Harlow is selling out everywhere, but he was less ambitious and opted for 2000 seat venues.

Flagrant 2 co-host Andrew Schultz said that despite Lil Baby's success he's not resonating with white people like himself, and that may be why he's struggling to sell seats.

“I can’t speak on behalf of all whites, but I have a feeling that Lil Baby is massive amongst Black people and there’s a huge chasm between white and Black people getting on board, and that’s your ticket sales slump," Schultz said.

Do you think that's it?
