Tony Yayo returns to VladTV to discuss his expanding media career, the latest hip-hop headlines, and some of the biggest legal cases making news.

Yayo begins by thanking VladTV and Complex for helping him grow beyond music, as he discusses his new shows, including Feed Yayo. He reflects on transitioning from rap to media, the evolution of VladTV from the DVD era to YouTube, and why consistency has been the key to long-term success.

The conversation then turns to the upcoming Keefe D murder trial. Yayo reacts to Keefe D rejecting a reported 10-to-25-year plea deal in favor of going to trial with a public defender, explaining why he believes accepting the plea would have been the smarter decision. He and Vlad also discuss YG’s ongoing legal issues, Charleston White’s recent confrontation in Houston, and several other high-profile criminal cases making headlines.

Later, Yayo shares his thoughts on the current state of hip-hop, including the controversy surrounding Pusha T’s latest album and the lasting influence of legendary producer Rick Rubin, giving him credit for helping launch artists like the Geto Boys and Sir Mix-a-Lot. The two also praise Sir Mix-a-Lot for writing, producing, and performing “Baby Got Back” entirely on his own.

The interview wraps up with a nostalgic look back at G-Unit, as Yayo and Vlad discuss the group’s biggest records, the success of the G-Unit sneaker line, 50 Cent’s growing media empire, Drake’s continued dominance in streaming, and the importance of staying humble in both business and entertainment.
