DJ Vlad, founder of the YouTube platform VladTV, found himself under heavy scrutiny this week after people started blaming his interviews for Casanova’s recent FBI indictment. Royce Da 5’9, who’s had his own issues with the internet personality, is one of the many weighing in on the matter.
On Wednesday (December 9), Nickle Nine shared an Instagram post featuring a screenshot of a direct message from VladTV to boxer Errol Spence Jr.
The message reads, “Hi. We’d like to schedule an on-camera interview. Please let me know who to contact or your representative may email me at kentay@vladtv.com,” to which Spence replied, “I’m cool ion need pub that bad.”
Royce, clearly amused by Spence’s response, wrote in the caption, “Bless you, Great one @errolspencejr.” The post received lots of love from some of Royce’s peers, including Busta Rhymes, Freddie Gibbs and Norega who either thanked Royce or laughed along with him.
Vlad has been the target of such allegations before due to his controversial interview style and deep dives into his subject’s criminal background.
InnerCityPress, the outlet that meticulously covered Tekashi 6ix9ine’s racketeering trial on Twitter, confirmed information Casanova supplied during his interviews, which many assumed were with Vlad, was used in the indictment. But there’s no mention of VladTV in the indictment.
“In public interviews, he has admitted to stabbing inmates while incarcerated on those charges,” InnerCityPress tweeted earlier this week. “And the Government has recovered photos from his iCloud account of several firearms, demonstrating his continued access to weapons. In addition to publicly promoting the gang and glorifying its activities, Senior [who was also indicted] is also a drug supplier for Gorilla Stone.”

In September, Royce called Vlad out with an Instagram video for allegedly disrespecting Minister Louis Farrakhan and reminded fans Rick Ross once allegedly ordered his entourage to attack Vlad, saying, “You know who you’re never going to disrespect again DJ Vlad? Rick Ross. Because he spoke to you in a language that you understand. You heard loud and clear.”
Royce added he wouldn’t “relapse as a man and resort to easy, easy acts of violence.” Following Royce’s video, Lord Jamar (famous for his frequent appearances on Vlad’s couch) pulled his support along with comedian Godfrey and vowed to never appear on Vlad’s show again.
yea you rappers need to stay the fck away from vladtv. he the feds.
Or just learn to be a man and STFU.. grown ass men in the 30s and 40s bragging on unproven by cops street crimes, talking on aire tapped phones in 2020.. how hard is it to say NO or NEXT QUESTION?
Tru but the best thing to do is to avoid it entirely. vlad isnt there for the music or culture he is simply there to exploit. these dudes need to smarten up and go on platforms that actually care about what you got goin on.
Wether you like vlad or not (i think hes an instagator personally) he has a following hes built up. They use eachother. Rapper for publicity vlad for views. Its a partnership
Lord Jamar spent 9 years on Vlads couch and he never caught a case or told on himself. I don’t see why they’re so mad at Vlad? Royce is the same guy that was flashing illegal rocket launchers online for attention a few years back…
its been known for years vlad is the feds. this is NOT a new topic. and lord jamar wasn’t heavy in the skreets like that there aint much to tell. I fail to see how what royce was doin has anything to do with vladtv.
Anyone who spells streets ‘skreets’ online is a weirdo I pray you’re not over 16
Because Lord Jamar interviews were not about Jamar, but other world and hip-hop topics. At least for the most part. Plus Jamar was never in the streets like that.
1) Unless we are getting at Facebook, Instagram, ect in the same manner this is kinda sorta inconsistent
2) Grown folks shouldn’t be telling on themselves (See Peewee Longway Vlad interview), and they are responsible for their own cases as well
3) That being sad…Vlad knows what he is doing and knows he is risking the freedom of the people he is making money off of interviewing….so yeah…kinda culture vulture-ish
Vlad is ass.
Hows jamar doin post vlad?
