In a candid conversation with Vlad, Maino weighed in on the recent tension between Jim Jones and Tony Yayo, emphasizing that much of the friction in New York’s rap scene stems from competition rather than real animosity. “I grew up in wartime, bro,” Maino reflected. “I can’t wait for the day we all can be in one room and be past whatever little issues we got.” He expressed his desire for unity among New York artists, envisioning a future where collaboration and peace replace rivalry. Maino highlighted the ego-driven nature of rappers but believes that putting pride aside can foster harmony, pointing to recent moments of solidarity between prominent artists. “After all the turmoil and wars, we want to live and enjoy this,” he said, calling for an end to the “staticky” environment. Ultimately, Maino’s message is clear: peace in New York hip-hop is possible, and it starts with mutual respect and coexistence.
