DJ Vlad and Chopper discussed the complex dynamics between music moguls and their artists, focusing on Cassie's career under Diddy's label. Vlad noted Cassie's initial success with her hit song, crediting producer Ryan Leslie but expressing that continuing success requires real talent. The discussion then shifted to how Diddy allegedly leveraged his relationship with Cassie, promising stardom in exchange for her personal commitment, thereby treating her more as an "item" than a human. Chopper argued that Cassie lacked the support and opportunities to showcase her true potential. The conversation criticized the manipulative practices in the music industry, drawing parallels between Diddy's and Suge Knight's treatment of their artists, emphasizing a systemic issue of artists being treated as commodities.
