YouTube Description
as posted by the channel-------
In a chat with DJ Akademiks, DJ Vlad opened up about the tensions behind the scenes with comedian Aries Spears, who recently demanded higher pay for his interviews on VladTV. Vlad explained their working relationship began in 2016, praising Aries’ talent and wit, but admitted there have been ongoing issues—ranging from Aries’ requests for a makeup artist at every interview to occasional disrespect toward Vlad’s staff. Vlad also addressed Aries’ claim that clips of their interviews hindered his acting opportunities, firmly refusing to remove content. Despite their business-only relationship, Vlad acknowledged Aries benefitted the most from their collaborations, especially after viral TikTok clips skyrocketed Aries’ popularity, leading to sold-out comedy shows including a record 3,000-seat venue in Connecticut. Vlad stressed he doesn’t profit from those viral posts but has supported Aries throughout, even covering additional costs like makeup. The interview sheds light on the complexities of maintaining business ties in the entertainment world.
