Bankroll Fresh's uncle tears into DJ Vlad over interview with his nephew's alleged killer.
Five weeks ago, DJ Vlad published a controversial interview with Bankroll Fresh's childhood friend No Plug, in which No Plug admitted involvement in Bankroll's death. Bankroll Fresh was shot and killed outside a studio in March; No Plug implied that he or one of his associates killed Bankroll Fresh out of self-defense.
To say nothing of the alarming content of the interview, many took issue with its tone for its depiction of a smiling, remorseless No Plug sitting aside a large stack of money. Bankroll Fresh's uncle Marvin Shadi Powers, VP of Digital Marketing for Street Money Worldwide, has written a scathing open letter criticizing Vlad's ethics. Read it in full below
You disrespectful culture vulture. I offered you to talk to my family, (Bankroll Fresh’s family) when my nephew was first killed. Did you call us or reached out to the Street Money Worldwide family or his father and mother to get a rebuttal to No Plug’s story? None of that!
When I asked you to interview Bankroll PJ and how he was continuing the legacy, you had a subordinate call me to tell me, you’re passing on PJ. He had just released a new single out plus he’s starring in a new FX TV show (Atlanta) this fall with Childish Gambino but no that was too positive, huh? Not enough black on black crime?
But you gave this coward a forum and put this hating ? on your platform like it was some light humored story. Sitting there smiling and talking about how he love my family. Where was the remorse with all that chuckling? And then the story he was telling you were straight ? with more holes in it than the police’s reasons for killing Alton Sterling. You’re an poor excuse for an journalist, if we can even call you one. And while the whole black community were coming together to protest “cops killing black men”, you drop this one sided interview of an open investigation for an unsolved murder of Bankroll Fresh. Was that strategic Vlad? You wanted to show more black on black violence on the same day? All you do is take from our community!
My nephew is dead and you’re having a light humored conversation with an alleged killer like it’s just another interview with Taxstone or Charlamagne. What’s funny? This ? ain’t funny!!! Even as a responsible journalist or the leader of urban news as you claim, you should have had the rebuttal interview with our family and/or other people who was there. Then you let him talked without confirming anything beforehand? Did you talk to the D.A.’s office or the APD Homicide? Even if no charges was brought, it doesn’t explained the real truth on why he was at the studio in the first place! It’s only his side of the story! Where’s the other sides??? Where’s the TRUTH???
No other man of another color or race should have that much power over the narrative of what happens in black communities. Our stories, our lives and even our music and don’t even give back at all. And then you get slick every now and then and subliminally try to drop other vultures like Slim Jesus in our psyche to see if you can get away with it. You’re really a pornographer that found a better hustle: “pimping black culture”. I know you. I worked for you. You don’t give back to our community! How much of that 50K a month, do you donate to the black community. Ad agencies use your site to ? everything from fried chicken to Coca Cola and pay you well. Words from your own mouth! Cavario from Don Diva warned me about you back then. Eben Gregory from Ebengregory.com warned me about you.
You’re worst than Harvey Levin over at TMZ but most of you cats who make money from black people stick together. Y’all always trying to get money out the hood, one way or another. Corner store or a rap label, covering urban culture or making black movies for black people. But you don’t give a damn about us, you’re worst than the police because you’re killing us slowly with the ? you feed our youth everyday. Just so you can get traffic and views because that’s the new “guns & butter”, advertising dollars for unique visitors. You think we’re stupid.
Since the Hip Hop Nation co signed you and every other idiot who want to be seen or want to remain relevant jumps in front of your camera on some “Steppin Fetchin” ? and take us back 50 years in morals and principle. The internet ain’t killing my people, you are with your VladTV. You’re irresponsible and you will be checked for it when the opportunity presents itself. Your end is near.
So are y’all finished or are y’all done??? You trying to destroy my nephew’s legacy after someone took his life? I’ll see you when I see you, clown. Let’s have some tea or break bread or something? But you will put some respect on Bankroll Fresh’s name. That’s a promise. Stay tuned for the real exclusive Bankroll Fresh news on Revolt, AllHipHop and WSHH among others, from my brother and Bankroll’s father, and COO, KRich, Street Money Boochie and Quick Trip from Street Money Worldwide. Shame on you, thief! There’s 3 sides to a story, there’s, our’s and the TRUTH!!! You should have done your job, crook! I’m still Nat Turner to you!!!!

watch bankroll boochie interview. He talks about it. They pulled pistols of Bankroll and put him out. Thats why when he saw no plug in the studio it was fighting on sight. U can tell from the no plug interview that it was salt there cuz he was like yeah we put him out the 9 when he was trying to pass out stuff for the kids. Why would u do that if thats someone u grew up with and were cool? They were homies who were beefin and dude killed him after a fight. -

not speaking to Bankroll folk and getting their side, turning down interviews and not wanting to support PJ yet u making money gossiping off dudes death. U dont do no interview like that ... that soon after a guys death it lacked common sense and taste -
His handle is DJ Vlad. Like Vlad the Impaler. AKA Vlad Tempes Dracul AKA Dracula. AKA King Bloodsucker. The truth is right there.

Dude was mad
It's about got dayum time. Folks eat off us and ? on us with a smile on their face. And we allow that ? . Regardless of the reason, finally somebody is calling these folks out. -
*I don't understand the Vlad hate post*
I mean is it because he's white? I heard of him way before he started doing interviews with ppl willing to put their business out there (he's actually a dj..I know, shocker, right?)
As far as the whole brf thing, I feel for his fam but Vlad didn't ? their kinfolk. Would they have trip if tbc or Angie Martinez did the interview? -
Powerful.

The Breakfast Club hasn't this especially with someone who brags abt killing there so called friend that's disgusting -
The hood say BankRoll and No Plug was fckin da same ? . Shawty was gettin in somebody ear tlkin reckless. So when no plug seen bank in the 9 him and his dudes took bank chain and put him outta der. Plus bank was involved in the counterfeit money game. An no plugs associate was slick mad cuz bank didn't wanna do business with him on that hustle. Anyway no plug happens to go to street executives studios (which is bankrolls in house studio) the same ratchet ? tells bankroll no plug was der bankroll was like df dis ? doing at my studio where I record.....the rest is history....in my opinion no plug went to that studio hoping to have a confrontation with bank and that messy hoe they was both fckin set bank up for that B.S

Sigh..

He never at one point excused what ol buddy did. Yes he capitalized off it. Oh well. That's the game..
And a lot of u protesting azz niqqaz probably watched the interview so whatever..
I don't like fake outrage. Ain't no time for that.. -

Me personally I didn't watch the video so I couldn't tell ya what was said
An im not outraged more disappointed in no plugs no remorse ass interview
I live in Atl grew up, went to school with and know some of this rappers and there families. So it's always sad when ? like this happens especially when ? turn it into a side show jst to make money off it
Only reason no plug ain't dead is cuz he certified in the streets and got alot of pull -

Cool, but this thread is specifically talking about how the guy who conducted the interview is wrong for interviewing ol boy. I was just trying to gain some understanding that's all..
What u posted is pretty much what he said sans the illegal ? . Maybe u should watch it so u can gain a little insight seeing as you have a personal connection to the story..
Always try to look at every angle. Never get caught up in ? logic..
