In a recent interview, rapper Tray Dee discussed the controversy around rappers checking in when visiting Los Angeles, sparked by Schoolboy Q's comments. According to Tray Dee, those who check in usually do so with trusted individuals, similar to visiting a relative, rather than paying or reporting to local gangs. Vlad opened up about his own experiences dealing with potential conflicts in the industry. He mentioned that while he covers many street activities, he has never personally approached Tray Dee to resolve any issues. However, Vlad did consult Tray Dee before interviewing Big U, a well-known figure with a strong reputation, to ensure it was a safe and respectful dialogue. Vlad highlighted his strategy of handling conflicts directly, avoiding intermediary resolutions to prevent owing favors that could be leveraged against him later. This approach, according to both Vlad and Tray Dee, is fundamental to maintaining personal integrity and self-respect in the industry.
