King Yella opened up about his move from Chicago to Las Vegas and the contrast with fellow rapper Chief Keef's journey. Keef, already affluent, shifted to Calabasas while Yella left Chicago with just $500. Yella disclosed that his decision to relocate was influenced more by his mother's advice about seeking better opportunities than by fear of violence. Despite Las Vegas being home to many Chicago transplants, Yella affirmed it couldn't compare to his former city's energy. Vlad commended Yella's maturity, highlighting how many young Black men refuse to move away, resulting in tragic outcomes. The conversation also touched on those who have faced incarceration, with Yella asserting that the experience can radically change one's perspective on life. He emphasized the importance of seeking mental stability and better living conditions.
