DJ Akademiks offered insights into why NBA YoungBoy's tour might not reach the sales heights of Kendrick Lamar’s. While YoungBoy's new song quickly garnered a million YouTube streams, Akademiks highlighted the financial dynamics of concert tours. He noted that Kendrick's shows boast record-breaking earnings, citing a $9 million show in Houston, contrasting this with YoungBoy’s potential tour outcomes. Akademiks remarked that NBA YoungBoy's younger fan base may not afford higher ticket prices, limiting his ability to book larger, more costly venues like stadiums. In contrast, Kendrick Lamar's audience demographic can support such expenses, allowing for grander show production. He delved into the differences in scale, noting that while Kendrick performs for 50,000-seat stadiums, YoungBoy would be limited to 17,000-seat arenas.
