DJ Vlad expressed strong opinions about Peter Rosenberg while discussing industry influence with Akademiks. Vlad cited a previous interview with Elliott Wilson regarding the placement of Nadeska Alexis on a power list, emphasizing that Nadeska, while competent, didn't have the impactful presence necessary for inclusion. The conversation shifted towards Peter Rosenberg, where Vlad questioned Rosenberg’s relevance and criticized his career trajectory. Vlad argued that despite numerous opportunities, including a notable stint at Hot 97 and attempts at hosting his own shows, Rosenberg failed to make a significant impact in the industry. He juxtaposed this with Rosenberg’s comments criticizing Vlad's business practices, suggesting that Rosenberg's career has stagnated due to a lack of entrepreneurial drive. Vlad concluded by stating that while balancing a 9-to-5 job and entrepreneurship is difficult, Rosenberg’s continued employment at Hot 97 reflects a missed opportunity to capitalize on being an industry influencer.
