Royce Da 5’9′ Calls Out DJ Vlad For Misquoting Minister Louis Farrakhan
Royce Da 5’9″ Has A Message For DJ Vlad After He Misquoted Minister Louis Farrakhan
Royce Da 5’9 took to Instagram last night to share a lengthy message to DJ Vlad, one of hip-hop media’s prominent personalities, after the host misquoted Minister Louis Farrakhan during an interview with DL Hughley.
Royce explained why he stepped with a video response. “The reason I’m doing this video, and please don’t misinterpret this as anger, cause I’m not angry,” he states. “But I do feel fed up, so I’m not going to place the whole burden of my frustration on one individual. But I do want to address DJ Vlad.”
As reported by HNHH, Royce admitted that Vlad’s platform can be harmful to the culture in his estimation, Royce reiterates that there is a responsibility there. “You understand the value of the platform, you understand the value of the culture to your platform,” he states.
“I know you also understand where it is you sit in the culture. You yourself have gone out of your way to let everybody know that my good friend, Marshall, is a guest here. You even used yourself as an example — you said you’re proud to call yourself a guest.”
“I think you need to understand, that as an associate of yours, when you misquoted Minister Farrakhan, that is highly offensive to me,” says Royce.
“It’s reparable to me, between me and you. But nothing like this can ever happen again. It’s making my brain go somewhere else. I’m starting to get that abused feeling again. People are coming in here, you’re going a little crazy now. We’re being nice. We’re a kind forgiving people.”
Minister Farrakhan is a very regal, deep, intellectual, cerebral, great man. My respect love and admiration for him will never waver, ever…So you can’t have a relationship with me, if you don’t respect the Minister.” Vlad is yet to respond to the call out.
