Vlad and Charli Baltimore discussed the Vibe magazine cover that featured Biggie Smalls and Sean "Puffy" Combs during a period of the notorious East Coast-West Coast music feud. They concurred that the cover caption, "East vs West," played a significant role in escalating what had been a rivalry between two artists into a coast-wide feud. According to Charli, media influence was strong as there was no social media at the time and newsmakers relied heavily on traditional publications. The interview also featured rapper Treach, who correlated the Vibe cover to the tragic fate of Smalls and Tupac Shakur, accusing the magazine of inciting violence. He expressed how the cover fueled passions on both coasts, escalating the feud to dangerous levels. Vlad and Charli implied that such media representations can amplify conflicts beyond the original problem.
