Part 1: TK Kirkland on Boosie Paying $600K for Trump Pardon: He Needs to Charge It To the Game
--------
In this VladTV interview, comedian and entrepreneur T.K. Kirkland reacts to the dispute between Boosie and Rod Wave over sampled music from Boosie’s early catalog. Vlad explains how Rod Wave reportedly cleared the records through Trill Entertainment, which owns much of Boosie’s older material, then offered Boosie $100,000 as a gesture of respect despite not being legally required to pay him directly. When Boosie said the amount wasn’t enough, the situation turned into a social media back-and-forth.
Kirkland breaks down why he believes “all money is good money” and warns that turning down free income can become a future regret. Vlad also compares the situation to his past interview-rate disagreement with Boosie, discussing market value, respect for money, and how artists navigate business in hip-hop. The conversation touches on Rod Wave, Trill Entertainment, Rickey Smiley, 60 Minutes, and the realities of music ownership.
