In a compelling interview, Vlad discussed the perils of escalating rap beefs with Band$ From Tha Rose. The discourse centered on Vlad's concerns about artists taking their feuds from records to real life—specifically by filming music videos in rival neighborhoods. Vlad cited the harrowing ordeal of Filthy Rich, who was attacked after a similar stunt and now lives with life-altering consequences.
Band$ acknowledged the risks, emphasizing the importance of confronting diss tracks by entering the rival's neighborhood as a statement rather than out of malice. Despite understanding the dangers, Band$ confessed to standing by his decisions, describing his actions as necessary for maintaining respect and presence in the music scene.
Vlad highlighted that many rappers have met violent ends due to such conflicts and posed a thought-provoking question about de-escalation. However, Band$ remains uncertain about reconciling with those he's had disagreements with, acknowledging the complexity and potential consequences of ongoing disputes in the hip-hop world.
