And me saying "yeah I did it, I thought he was somebody else" just to troll the interviewer and suddenly I officially admited I killed 2pac therefor I must go to court? What am I missing here?

@@SuiteVII first of all thanks for replying, but still, arent rappers always doing their best to look cool or bad-ass or whatever even on interviews? I can see it happening if they tell something that only the murderer would know, I guess but aside from that everything they say is always questionable.

[@lazure694]

​@@ryckarduhryckarduh180I guess that's true but SuiteVII's point still kind of stands. The celebrity still tries to sell an image even on interviews, so this image must be in line with what they present when performing. The other thing is that, if the interviewed person makes a claim that warrants criminal investigation, they can always just deny said things and go to court with a reasonable case. The judiciary system can be a prick and people can try to sabotage cases like these but you're not really defenseless against any charges.

[@JaylanOfc]

@@ryckarduhryckarduh180 I would say that because music can be used as artistic expression, so there are a lot of legal hoops you would have to go through to make a case, meanwhile in an interview, you would be expected to be honest - I've heard lots of jokes/bold comments about killing people from rappers that never go anywhere but in the case of Vlad's interviews; they're just straight up dry snitching talking about details.

[@Tyler7412788]

It’s actually the same for both music and interviews. You can always claim you were talking yourself up in an interview and making stuff up for entertainment and that’s also how a lawyer will fight it. It’s when there’s irrefutable evidence that corroborates what was said that they get into trouble, which also goes for music. You just see it with interviews more often because interviews are more direct and frank compared to a song. But both songs and interviews are hard to bring into play regardless for prosecutors because of the entertainment argument and they’ll usually be thrown out

Be it on themselves or other people, Vlad spends way too much time fishing for information that can and will be used by a court of law as evidence. True at the end of the day what you said is correct, but at the same time when you want to be a "Guest in the House of Hip Hop" as he calls it, you have to follow the landlord's rules.

All due respect, the back-and-forth he had with the Professor Merkin was unnecessary, but only when it came to her approach. Firstly, Vlad was way outta pocket for how he addressed the situation. However, she was wrong for making the issue about "race" (Western construct used to assert dominance and instill inferiority amongst disenfranchised ppl) when he simply criticized the mix on the song. It was stupid, but, as an audio engineer I understood. I could understand if he attacked Kendrick for dissing his Jewish brethren, but, he didn't. Issues like these show how left the battle went when fans or critics take it outside the music. P.S. My bad for the paragraph. 😂😂😂😂😂

Ah yes the 16ster himself. They call him the Freakenstein on Figueroa I hear in LA.

[@rileywritts]

0:13 the mixing comment was just Vlad hating and he wanted to be a part of the kendrick/drake conversation.

[@Spectrum0122]

Vlad won't go away until ignorant dudes stop going on his show

[@thetribesman6687]

Then why do these fools keep talking to him? Vlad is just doing Vlad.

[@SoggyMs]

Vlad is awful obviously but the lady saying he can't talk about something because it's about 2 black people is ridiculous. If thats the case does that mean she's not allowed to have an opinion about the upcoming election?

[@TyricjDaManbmz]

vlad really embarked in hiphop no matter how much yall hate him , he IS a guest to HipHop and he knows but you cant take away him being one of the best Hip Hop interviewer/commentator , thats why new rappers always gonna go on Vlad

[@tevinarchuleta8725]

Ya let’s blame the guy for exposing criminal activity and not hold the dudes accountable that commit the crimes

[@FrcNeru]

yup thats "the culture" in a nutshell

[@jacobna2080]

What a beautiful and safe “culture”

[@OnEst_Opinion]

Anyone saying Vlad is a bad man because he only invites people on when there’s drama involved, do you not see that’s exactly what our new channels do? Vlad is well aware that drama will always get more clicks and views than someone talking about themselves in a boosting manner for two hours.complaining like it’s bad that he only brings people on when there’s activity in their career is so stupid. What would there be to talk about for two hours with someone who has nothing going on in their career?? Nothing

[@ch33zybreadtrellie4]

It’s the instigating, the tone of his interviews sounding like interrogations, and him always feeling like his word is law, especially when it comes to black folks. Talib had to tell him “only thing we have in common is we both like hiphop… you aren’t BLACK”.

I’ve never respected Vlad or anyone who sits with him to do an interview. The fact that he became as big as he did is a very big stain on our culture. It’s embarrassing.

[@GunBlade79]

As opposed to the crime and murder his interviewees admit to, DJ Vlad is the real bad guy for being nosy about it!

[@PlatoonGoon]

The guy is Ukrainian and you really said 'bust out that Russian strength' around 5:00 I'm asking you seriously. Care more than that about what you're commentating on.

[@mattyballz]

Vlad was there before Ukraine left russia. He said he considers himself russian. Didn’t think ppl would trip so much bout this

[@PlatoonGoon]

@@mattyballz Ukraine never left Russia my guy, they were part of the Soviet Union before the USSR fell. Don't make commentary videos if you're that unaware of facts, you're commentating as if your opinion and voice should carry weight but you're slaughtering the facts like they owe you money

Great video! Vlad is the epitome of a culture vulture and true fed. I also don't respect that fact that he's NEVER recorded in his interviews. Rumor has it that he's typically conducting the interviews via a laptop.

[@roaringsun4743]

Vlad deserves criticism for his content. With that said, Morgan Jerkins doesn’t need to speak on him or anybody in the hip hop space at all as flippantly as she did. He only commented on the mix of the record, and to say that a record that is being publicly consumed doesn’t need to be commented on by him is beyond stupid on her part. As usual, she gets a pass.

[@filmexpressreviews]

he films people and asks them questions so they incriminate themselves . he's not for the culture he's for the feds and his own bag

[@CesarR1037]

I mean they can refuse to answer his questions. Plenty of people do, look at the interviews with boosie. It’s his job to get info cuz it gets clicks, as with any other interviewer. Look at the breakfast club, the art of dialogue, no jumper, etc. is vlad corny? Yes. Is he for his own bag? Absolutely. But it’s more the fault of people that consume his content, they’re keeping him afloat and relevant.

[@Lqtech00]

Reason why Morgan Jerkins was telling him to stop contacting her family is because she’s producer Darkchild’s niece. It’s bad for business to mess with one of hip hop and R&B’s biggest producers.
