Hip-hop media personality DJ Akademiks has alleged that Drake, Ye and other high-profile rappers are helping fund Lil Durk's legal defence as the Chicago rapper faces trial in a federal murder-for-hire case in Los Angeles.
During a livestream on Sunday (Aug. 30), Akademiks claimed that Ye contributed $250,000 (£184,000) to Durk's defence, while Drake contributed about $1 million (£738,000) toward the legal fees of attorney Brian Steel.
