In this VladTV segment, Black Label recounts a violent street incident that began with a $60,000 ransom demand and ended in a dramatic escape through a back door as gunfire erupted. Speaking with Vlad, he describes how his neighborhood arrived armed, forcing his captors into chaos before he ran through alleys and fences to safety around 2 a.m. Black Label then details the retaliation: a rival was allegedly taken at gunpoint from a neighborhood store and brought to a South Side trap house, where the crew tried to force him to reveal who ordered the setup. He says the answer never came. The conversation also explores how the conflict escalated into drive-bys, kick doors, and ongoing tension around spots like New Deal club near 34th Street and 18th Avenue, while Black Label reflects on Auburndale, poverty, street role models, gold jewelry, cars, and the value of education.
