DJ Akademiks’ Twitch Channel Temporarily Deactivated After Hosting Livestream w/ Adin Ross: ‘T’ll Be Back’

Fans of DJ Akademiks will have to view his popular livestreams anywhere other than Twitch for the next couple of days.

The platform recently deactivated the culture commentator’s account following a recent stream he conducted with (banned) streamer Adin Ross.

According to Complex, Ross was suspended indefinitely from Twitch back in February of last year, and Akademiks hosting him on his channel was a direct violation of Twitch’s community policies.

At this time, the platform has not publicly disclosed the specific reason for giving Akademiks the boot. He did, however, react to the situation on his X account and clarified that the ban is only temporary.

After DJ Hed advised him to “stay on stream,” Akademiks wrote:

“I Will. I’ll be back streaming tonight on YT at 8 PM EST for another 7 hours with over 17,000 watching concurrently the whole time . Anyhow.. Hows ur podcast views lookin tho? Prolly could use a Kendrick Lamar stimmy huh?”

He added in a follow-up post:

“Oh Btw… it was a 72 Hr Suspension on Twitch. Shouts to my Twitch partner manager… Ngl they did warn me over like 4 times in the past bout streaming with Adin. They def dont fw that n***a lol. we on YT til then.”
