DJ Vlad addressed recent drama involving comedian Aries Spears, who threatened to sue him for defamation after Vlad claimed Spears was rude to his staff during interviews. Spears sharply denied the accusations, insisting the only crew member he interacted with was Vlad’s cameraman, and threatened legal action. Vlad fired back with a blunt response, calling Spears out for exaggerations and recalling an incident where Spears allegedly ordered his video manager to find him a sweat towel, painting a difficult picture of the comedian’s behavior.

The feud also involved conflicting reports about Spears’ pay for VladTV interviews. Spears claimed he received five figures, while Vlad insisted the real amount was a low four digits. Interestingly, Spears later offered to return for a free interview to “get the truth out,” a proposal Vlad found amusing but somewhat tempting, joking about conditions including no makeup.

The spat highlights the ongoing tensions behind the scenes of the popular hip-hop interview platform.
