A dude saying he loves Chocolate women wont get as much attention as a dude who hates dark skin women

[@ksager123]

iLLest Tv right. that's because people love the drama

[@85jmurk]

Illest TV Unless its someone that's not black saying it. A black man could make a vid right now talking about how he love dark skin women , it wouldn't get any views but if a black man make a video talking about how he don't , that'll go viral, flipside but if a non black man makes a video talking about how he like dark skin women, that'll go viral It seems like blacks love validation from non blacks, and love non validation from blacks.

That’s a fact

[@pitbull82]

I grew up overweight and battling weight gain my whole life. More often than not, I've been in pretty good shape, after starting lifting weights at 19. I've always had way better luck with women when I've been lean. Way better treatment from ppl when I'm lean. It made me kinda prejudice towards overweight ppl, for lack of a better term. So I can understand where he's coming from. I was picked on growing up and I'm afraid my genetics will make my kids fat, giving them the problems that I had growing up.

difference between you and Shawn is you only interview popping rappers and Shawn discovers them...

[@UndercoverSpill]

nah , he mostlikely got teased as a kid. I had the same shit where, everyone clowning you for being dark which is out of your control. People who arent dark like my man probably never been the butt of jokes and teased as a kid. As a adult its different but childhood trauma can fuck you up into adult hood. Not to mention you probably gonna get more opportunities just by being a shade or 2 lighter. Just like the slavery days. Just like our musical legends like Beyonce or RiRi. Just like how Lil Dicky was excited to be light skin black. Same for dark women too, notice all the rappers are promoting the light chicks not many coco complexions.

[@alpizzle2963]

I love dark skinned chicks I'd take them anyday they have to be cute tho I'm not taking u just because ya skin color. Just prefer a pretty dark skin chick over a pretty light skin

[@justhewop]

I’d love to know who offered Vlad 30 bands for an interview. You can essentially establish your whole music career with that type of bread - a few high quality projects w dope production and engineering, a couple top tier videos, a couple features... and if you’re dope you’re gonna pop. Why pay 30 grand for a Vlad interview when all that comes of it are tons of dislikes and negative comments?!? Terrible business move in my opinion.

[@richiebuz]

Juswan I don't believe in paying to get on unless you're paying a marketing. Get your buzz and get on. People want the fast artificial route to success.

Atleast shawn aint exploiting ppl

[@freddycalipari4242]

vlad a lame. i know a dude who gave vlad his first production credit on the american gangster doc. he didnt charge vlad shit when vlad asked to be a part of it. years later he asked for a favour..a request to get a music video on voads site and vlad refused lol

Vlad I hope you read this but I have learned of a lot of people from your channel and I didn’t know who they were. You and your channel put people in the light even if they don’t have a buzz. Don’t sleep on your authority. The opportunity of exposure you provide is worth 30 grand or more really.

[@yahafftalaff337]

Shows Vlads confidence, that his is THE Channel that he can interview the opposition, giving them a platform to big up their own channel.

[@UndercoverSpill]

As someone who grew up being teased for being dark its understandable to not want your kids to go through it. I remember even in school at like 14 someone told me and this girl we shouldnt have kids because we were both dark. Crazy how some black kids can be so hateful to their own kind. I swear too you get more opportunities if your on the lighter side. Like Lil Dicky said Light skin black....which got him excited to not be be dark skin black.

I don't agree with Glock 9 comments, but I kinda understand. I'm dark skinned, & I love dark skinned women. Our people need 2 accept some culpability 4 this whole self hate thing. Dark skinned people are constantly getting talked about in a negative way. Michael Blackson is constantly having his complexion insulted. Glock 9 probably doesn't want his children 2 endure what he had 2 as a child, especially if has a daughter. I'm not defending him. It's a difference between dark skinned & brown skinned 2 in our community. We need 2 understand how genes work. 2 people of the same complexion not necessarily gna produce a child of the same complexion. Look @ Snoop & his daughter.

[@jaybuckstv]

I have clicked on interviews of people I’ve never seen before all the time wtf he talking about I end up likeng them after I watch interview

Why does he call Black women “brown women”?? Brown women are Hispanics,Indians, Polynesian, ETC

[@kobeshaffir6461]

Shawn also doesn’t ask questions like a police interrogation

[@JeyTheArsonist]

having a dark complexion is not fun or easy for most of us. getting teased while growing up for being dark by other black kids was no fun. while light skins get glorified in the media as black beauty, theres no way I'd want my kids to have to go through what i do on the daily. but its impossible to truly and fully understand unless you have a dark complexion like ours.

[@LegitMusic]

Say cheese and Vlad are completely different. Vlad does professional interviews and cheese posts a lot of beef shit between rappers
