When DJ Envy asked if being called a culture vulture erases the hard work he’s put into hip-hop culture, Vlad acknowledged the criticism but emphasized his ongoing dedication. Highlighting his early mixtape success, Vlad explained how he continually reinvents himself to stay relevant. At 52, he proudly notes recognitions such as making Complex’s top hip-hop media lists and reaching millions of viewers. Vlad also reflected on the mixed reception of positive actions, observing how negative stories often overshadow good deeds, like DJ Envy’s charitable efforts for fellow DJs. Despite controversy, Vlad insists that those who truly know him understand his role in easing conflicts and even saving lives.
