In this VladTV interview, Big Gipp of Goodie Mob and James Worthy stopped by. The two artists were gearing up to drop a joint project titled ‘Gipp N Worthy.’ During the conversation, it was revealed Vlad and Gipp have been running into each other for years, but the sit down was actually their first interview ever. Gipp detailed growing up in Atlanta and described the changes that occurred for Black people in the city over the years. Gipp said despite having both parents at home, he still got mixed up in the streets after being intrigued by seeing other kids having a lot of money at their age. Gipp noted because he had a father and mother at home, he made better decisions in the streets as a result.

Gipp detailed how Goodie Mob came together, describing how much of the group were solo acts that came together, with some of them once battling each other. Another portion of the interview finds Queens artist James Worthy speaking about his upbringing, with Vlad joking about his name in comparison to the legendary NBA player. Worthy noted his musical skill actually came through trial and error and said he soaked up game from the greats like Whodini, PM Dawn, Bobby Brown, Whitney Houston, and more.
