Ever feel like your favorite artists are caught up in drama you don’t quite understand? Well, Boosie Badazz is here to clear the air about his recent spat with DJ Vlad and the backlash he’s been getting from fans. It all started when Boosie decided to take his interviews elsewhere, leading to a heated discussion about pay and loyalty.

Boosie’s Message to His Supporters

Boosie isn’t holding back when it comes to fans who he feels are misunderstanding his actions. He recently took to social media, as captured by DJ Akademiks, to address the situation head-on. He’s urging his loyal fans to support his new interview platform, which will feature his content dropping on Patreon.

He specifically called out those he deems ‘fake fans’ for assuming he did Vlad wrong. Boosie believes he’s the reason many in the Black community started accepting and watching VladTV in the first place. He emphasized his consistent presence on Vlad’s platform, stating, ‘I stood up every time… I steady went on his podcast and made you guys accept him.’

The Core of the VladTV Dispute

So, what exactly is the beef about? It boils down to a pay dispute. Boosie initially claimed Vlad refused to offer him an extra $5,000 for an interview. However, DJ Vlad presented a different side, stating that Boosie was already making $25,000 per interview and was seeking a $10,000 increase, bringing the total to $35,000.

Vlad explained his perspective, highlighting the financial risks involved. He stated, ‘At the end of the day, I’m taking 100 percent of the risk. So I’m like, ‘Listen, I cannot pay you $35K when I’m going to make nothing. Or maybe I’m going to take a loss.” He felt the proposed increase didn’t make business sense, especially when he perceived Boosie as making all the money while he took the financial hit.

Hopes for Resolution

Despite the public disagreement, DJ Vlad expressed a desire to mend fences. He mentioned, ‘I haven’t said one negative thing about this man. Not one. Boosie’s dope, man. I love Boosie.’ He hopes to settle their issues in the future, indicating that the door isn’t entirely closed on their working relationship.

• Boosie Badazz is launching new interviews on Patreon.
• He feels he paved the way for VladTV’s acceptance in the Black community.
• The dispute centers on a requested pay increase for interviews.
• DJ Vlad cites financial risk as the reason for not meeting Boosie’s demands.
• Vlad hopes to resolve the conflict eventually.

This situation highlights the complex dynamics between artists, platforms, and the business side of content creation. It’s a reminder that even long-standing relationships can face challenges when financial expectations don’t align.
