The show accomplished their goal. The intent was to exposed Ak visually to the world. He had to come from out the shadows. Now he’s a pawn like the rest of them
That’s true, it was on my timeline because I watched complex news before everyday struggle started. Also the show wasn’t that good, and the show being so long always turned me away.
@@Justin_Kline_223 y’all literally just shit on successful black people and if you black saying this shit YOURE the pawn that’s an age old demonizing tactic to illegitimise successful black people
Ak & Joe had great chemistry on that show & if the show would've continue consistently it would have been HUGE after say, a 5 year span. Complex dropped the ball penny-pinching in the short-term, but lost a potentially GAME CHANGING show long-term. Ak & Joe brought attention to Complex that wasn't previously there. That being said, as an entrepreneur/creator myself - I totally feel where Joe is coming from on the business end. Both AK & Joe are thriving individually without complex 💯
No bro .it depended on "mumble" rappers ,bringing them in ,AK vouches for them and Joe critique but here's the thing bro ,mumble rappers eventually got accepted and it stopped being a big deal .
Biggest complex miss ever do you know how many viral moments went on during that show then they don’t pay the ppls what they deserve that complex hip hop crew was amazing
Which was one of the worst decisions on their part lol. Now both Ak and Joe are so far beyond Complex it's insane. Complex is a shell of what it used to be
Nah the format of Joe's podcast and the chemicustry made why it was great, it would have necessarily have translated to the format of everyday struggle. Saying that though it was a good period and a strong show
Everyday struggle was the best hip hop commentary show, watching and listening to those episodes in the middle of a gym workout was life, their chemistry was so fucking goofy yet perfection.
Dont sound so somber the past dont mean it can't happen in a better way, let em build and grow at each their own speed and enjoy their hard work, they give up alot of their free time and thoughts for the cause
Everyday Struggle show was Legendary. Chemistry was A+. Content delivered was great. Should have just gave Joe what he needed and they would be #1 overall regardless of the demographic
@@lonecreations1740 That's the point, its not about the 10k. Joe wanted car service, got that. Hair and makeup for nedeska, got that. Security, got that. Pay raise mid contract instead of waiting till re-negotiation, got that twice. Then he started talking about wanting full creative control over the show and what was discussed, control over AK and Nedeska's contracts, ownership of the IP, ect. They saw where it was going and drew a hard line, that's why they refused to give another 10k raise 9 months into a 12mo contract even tho AK said they could take it from his pay.
Complex could have literally been one of the biggest hip hop podcast if they kept that show running with the chemistry between Akademiks and Joe budden so much lost potential.
Yeah, but like Ak said, that show was already on it’s way to legendary status so they could have waited it out until the end of the contract and both of them could’ve asked for a bigger deal or walk together. Joe jumped the gun on that bag by doing it himself.
@@deviantanomaly na if you out pace your contract early they can renegotiate. Look at the call her daddy situation. It was a similar situation. You need to strike when the iron is hot. It sounds like they waited 9 months of the show being on too so that’s a reasonable amount of time.
These two with Nadeska were the only reasons why I watched anything on Complex channel. The topics in conjunction with the interactions between the three had me so animated with what they were bringing to the forefront and had me rofl at the same time with the outbursts, quips, & conversations! There were episodes that I used to watch multiple times because it was so entertaining yet informative with what was going on in the culture. Once Joe left is when it all started going downhill. The chemistry wasn't the same, the entertainment value wasn't the same, the show itself just wasn't the same. Everyday Struggle featuring Joe Buddens, DJ Akademiks, & Nadeska is something that will be ingrained in hip hop culture for a long time. That's something that Complex cannot take away from either of these gentlemen.
One thing I remember a lot of people saying when Joe left Everyday Struggle was that Ak needed to part ways with it too. The numbers were there even back then to say dude was big enough to do his own pod because the CZcams channel was already doing numbers. When Joe was there the dynamic was Ak and Joe, Nadeska was the mediator. When Joe left, Ak carried that shit. When they were on their quest for another Joe it never worked so they put Wayno in there (no diss to Wayno) because Ak was carrying that shit from the point. And suspending Ak during the pandemic for saying something about John Legend cabbagepatch head ass wife was the nail in the coffin
AK did good, like he explained here its not always about getting something great up front. He bid his time, put in the hours and I'm sure he negotiated a hell of a good deal later on. Now he has more clout than ever negotiated a great pod deal with Spotify and actually has enough creditablty and connections to get A list guests. If he'd left back then there's no way he'd be able to do that
I did what Joe did for my team of five when I worked at Hyundai they weren't paying anyone good so I spoke up and when they didn't resolve the situation I had to bounce and so did many others. You can't wait around hoping things will get better.
Who tf walks out on a job cause you didn’t get a raise you demanded? And just bc you led your friends to drown dosent mean it was the rite decision either
Joe will NEVER realize that he creates these masterpieces of entertainment/content and then as quick as he creates them he destroys them for which he believes is a greater cause or bigger bag but is always left with LESS than what he was gonna get
Yeah but Joe isn’t worried about that. Your definition of “leaving with less” is different than his. He knows his worth so he left because they didn’t respect it . Values, respect.
It’s dope but not when it’s way below your value. Let’s say you bringing them in $1M after expenses and you’re one of the reasons if not the main reason they making that money.
@@brandonmokhema1777 if you always worry about the next man pockets you'll never be happy. Example: I was happy at my job, until I found out ppl getting paid $22,000 a month for hanging out.
@@douglasfuentes2737 I mean if you were working a lot harder why wouldn’t you have been pissed? You have to value yourself, effort, and your time bc most ppl won’t if they know you’ll accept whatever they offer you.
The show was great because two black men could finally disagree on something without fighting or shooting each other. Some days you agreed with Ak ..some days you agreed with Joe …they both were logical but had a different approach which is why they were so dynamic.
Such a brilliant discussion I really miss these guys together. Joe is such a visionary along with Ak’s good takes they are the 100 million plus duo. I just bought Joe’s Patreon to hear more. I would pay to listen to these guys talk about anything really.
Damn AK you been killing it and You such a fan of joe burden you let him control this whole conversation without even trying lol no disrespect we wanted a ak interview!!!! This a jbp interview lol
This is like that CZcams channel where couples come together and talk about their past 😂 😂 especially when Joe said me too. Ak was like “I wanted it to last” Joe was like “me too” 😂 😂
Them two are literally the only reason I watched every day struggle…and i like nadeska too, she glued the chemistry be bringing a more chilled vibe in contrast to AK and Joe
Facts, there's a open lane too. Nobody doing daily hop hop commentary but AK and Joe separately on their shows. Everyone else doing interviews (Gillie wallo Nore)
Everyday struggle is the biggest fumble in Hip Hop history! Honestly the African American community has to come together and work together to achieve greatness. The system is place now are too greedy
African Americans been whining about the system for over 60 years, how about stop whining #1, and do our own things instead of complaining about how things are not fair. These 2 are millionaires first of all, how unfair is that? Millionaires whining about being done wrong. When will the complaining stop?
Everyday Struggle will always have a special place in my Heart. It came out at such a crucial time in Hip Hop, Kendrick had just released DAMN. Dudes like XXX were just bursting onto the scene, it was such an insane time. Would wake up and watch it everyday!! They had something with that shit
Even though they butt heads so often, Joe left lookin out for Ak and the staff while Ak was gonna also sacrifice his check for Joe. That's a recipe for success, people lookin out for eachother🙏
Joe is right. Other than burning all his bridges of course lmao. But ownership is key, people like Sean Evans who hosts Hot Ones is on a bigger platform but once Complex chooses to cut him, his checks end and he is just another host looking for work.
Shawn actually owns hot ones. He and his cream created and First We Feats hosts it. First We Feat is then hosted by Complex. So this is incorrect sir. He could just move the show if Comlex is no longer involved.
I fucking loved that show, and could not wait for episodes to drop. Sucks it couldn't continue, stopped watching once joe was gone. Yall had something amazing, hopefully comes back around in some form.
Bro that show I remember I used to look forward every lunch break to be listening to Joe and AK clown eachother. It was honestly one of the best if not best hip hop commentary show.
I would tune in every episode when they were on that show together, I used to look forward to it at work every single time. That was such a great run, and such a disappointment when it ended.
Man watching Joe an Ak reminds me of my Cousin Steve who passed he was like an uncle to me the stories he’d tell an knowledge he’d drop, He was 39 When he passed I was only 21. RIP 🪦 Steve. Ak an Joe Chemistry 🧪 was unmatched.
damn lol i missed seeing these two sit together, everyday struggle was what i watched nonstop in college esp 2017 when the new gen of artists started blowing up.. takeoff and soulja gotta be two of the most iconic moments in the rap game lmfao
Joe a contract is a contract man... complex was taking all the risks and fronting the money for the show. Nobody knew it would be a hit... so once it took off, Joe didn't want to honor the original contract he signed before it expired and demanded more money. That is not how it works. If the showed bombed, joe and ak still would've wanted complex to uphold their end of the contract and pay them out... the big pay day was coming because they had something special... joe was selfish and shortsighted.
