In this clip with Math Hoffa, Vlad reflected on his previous conversation with Aries Spears, where the comedian said rappers-turned-actors lack range. The majority of rappers-turned-actors, they observed, tend to play characters similar to their own personas. They contrasted this trend with actors like Will Smith, who takes on a wide variety of roles. The group also contemplated the broader topic of typecasting, noting that it’s not just a problem for musicians but also for existing actors who are typically offered similar roles. Even A-listers like The Rock and Kevin Hart fall victim to this trend. However, they concluded that the issue is multi-faceted: it involves not just the play-it-safe approach of studio executives but also factors like an actor's brand and audience expectations. As Vlad pointedly put it, "If it's not working, it's time to pivot."
