G Herbo Clashes with DJ Vlad Over Interview Remarks

It looks like there’s some friction brewing in the hip-hop world between rapper G Herbo and interviewer DJ Vlad. Recently, DJ Vlad made headlines by calling out G Herbo, suggesting the rapper turned down an interview with VladTV now that he’s achieved significant fame, despite having done interviews with the platform earlier in his career.

Vlad’s Claims and G Herbo’s Rebuttal

DJ Vlad expressed his view that artists often feel they no longer need VladTV once they reach a certain level of success. He specifically cited G Herbo, stating that he was told Herbo passed on an interview but instead appeared on a podcast with a mere 678 views. Vlad questioned why an artist would choose such a platform over VladTV, implying it was a slight.

This didn’t sit well with G Herbo, who took to Instagram to issue a strong and lengthy response. He vehemently denied that DJ Vlad played any significant role in his rise to fame, asserting that VladTV reached out to him repeatedly during his come-up, not the other way around. Herbo insisted he only showed up to interviews his team arranged, often without even knowing who Vlad was at the time.

Accusations of Exploitation

G Herbo didn’t hold back, accusing DJ Vlad of being solely focused on views and asking provocative questions that could put artists in jeopardy. “You a get a n***a killed and sent to jail and be on to the next victim you take advantage of for clicks and views!” Herbo wrote, expressing a deep distrust of Vlad’s motives and journalistic principles.

He concluded his statement by firmly stating his right to choose which interviews he participates in, emphasizing that he does what he wants and has no desire to engage with Vlad due to his perceived lack of integrity. At the time of this report, DJ Vlad had not publicly responded to G Herbo’s fiery remarks.
