--------
In this clip, Tony Yayo gave his take on DJ Akademiks calling hip-hop pioneers “dusty” for not having money the way artists today enjoy. However, Yayo pushed back on the idea that everything, including legacy, has to be determined by the amount of money something or someone brings in. He said while he understands Akademiks is coming from the perspective of someone much younger, he still thinks he’s wrong for disrespecting the legends.
Later, DJ Vlad shared his thoughts on the comments made by DJ Akademiks about hip-hop pioneers. He explained to Tony Yayo why he disagreed before revisiting the story about How Kid Creole ended up with a life sentence in prison for murder. This prompted an interesting idea about setting up some type of a "pitch-in" service to help provide the first generation of rappers with a pension, health insurance, and/or financial stability. To that, Tony Yayo agrees and responds with a question for DJ Vlad: Who would be in charge of disbursing the money? Later in the conversation, Tony Yayo shares the type of philanthropist that he's been doing to give back.

As far as 80s Hiphop is concerned, folks seem to forget at that time it was being called "A Fad". The opinion of those outside the community was that it wasn't gonna last.

@@Nismonomania Yes I am. Vlad has tried that on his platform but he fears losing his celebrity status. Vlad constantly reminds ex drug dealers that he tried to sell dope once which is his way of relating. He reminds ex convicts that he did a weekend in jail trying to relate. Vlad is nothing more than a fan of the negative side of African American culture. He's a culture vulture that's why Lord Jamar left him alone. Since Covid he started sprinkling in Monsters and Investors and Athletes to curb the narrative that he's a culture vulture but he built his platform off of exploiting African American pain and suffering.

Nobody ever starts this convo with the most logical actual answer which is rappers DID NOT make the kinda money that mid 90s and 2000s rappers make. Dudes wasnt banking 10M+ back then and the labels took alot of their money. There wasnt no $100,000-200K per show back then. There wasnt album sales AND streams combined. There wasnt commercials and such left n right like now. There wasnt social media to get the whole world hip to ur shyt like now. They mostly made album sales money which wasnt alot back then for most.

[@miloleilo7730]

I get your point- but you need to apply logic too- rappers back in the day made money that was way above - living expenses, houses and other commodities- for eg- if they made $600,000 from album sales and mansions were $200,000 and they brought it then 30 years later- the property today is worth $4 million dollars- so the money is all relative during the time,

I think what a lot of people have to understand is that academics is not originally from America. He didn't grow up in the culture of Hip Hop as closely as someone would have been who lived in America. So, with that being said, he doesn't appreciate the old school artist as much as someone else would who has lived this culture. And you also have to understand that he was not a popular kid growing up. And a lot of unpopular kids hold a grudge on individuals who were popular. And a lot of these pioneers and Hip Hop were popular simply from what they were doing if nothing else. Look at this dude. He doesn't really have any real style with him. The majority of these rappers that you see him interview have more style and swag than he will ever have. Even the conscious rappers have more style than he does.

I’m like this. I can not judge the elders of hip hop. The made it so the artists of today can run. If I was a big times star in the industry. I will give back to them and do some business so they can feed their families for a lifetime. All these hit records a percentage of each goes a long way
