Trap Lore Ross recently revealed to Vlad that he received numerous death threats from Chicago natives following his King Von documentary. Many were incensed by what they perceived as the unsavory way the late Von was portrayed. Despite the threats, Ross indicated that the debate he had with peers like Van Lathan and Akademiks validated his journalistic approach to the documentary. But he admitted that the volume of relentless personal threats impacted his mental health. Vlad cited similar experiences in his own career when dealing with controversial stories and figures. Furthermore, Ross also hinted that his documentaries had sparked reactions from rap heavyweights Lil Durk and NBA YoungBoy, who he believes referenced him in their songs. Despite the distress and controversy, Ross considered the documentary a career-high and a testament to his journalistic skills.
