In a recent candid exchange on VladTV, comedian Aries Spears fiercely defended his stance on modern hip hop, following Vlad’s claim that Spears hasn’t listened to a full hip hop album since 1999. Spears bluntly dismissed much of today’s hip hop as “garbage,” admitting he rarely listens to entire albums, instead appreciating select artists and tracks. When Vlad insisted on the artistic importance of full albums, Spears retorted with sharp humor, ultimately telling Vlad to “S*** my d***” after Vlad labeled him a “casual listener.” Spears emphasized his own selective taste, rejecting popular contemporary artists like Kendrick Lamar and Drake, while showing some respect for early Kanye West. Despite Vlad’s argument about experiencing music as a full body of work, Spears remained unapologetic about his listening habits, valuing his personal enjoyment over traditional notions of musical appreciation. The exchange highlighted their differing views on what it means to be a true hip hop fan today.
