I always said Dro was supposed to become what 2Chainz became.
Facts
Definitely
BIG FIKES!!!!!
In the city he "IS" that and we recognize him as that..He'll drop a banga or a mixtape out the blue & let ya know he outchea!!💯💯
And it’s dro fault he wasn’t
Best Thing Smokin’ is not a just a SOUTHERN classic, it is a HIP HOP classic. Period.
💯🔥🔥
💯 💯 💯
📠📠📠
💯💯💯
That intro is to fire
I smiled during this whole interview. Good genuine energy and he never fails when he drop. I remember TiP saying in an interview "Dro can drop a hit whenever he feel like it"
Which interview?
He not lying. Dro is a prolific lyricist and knows how to make a street hit
@@biscaynesupercars his song called “TikTok” was pretty dope ngl
@@biscaynesupercars agreed
Dro pops in every few years with a hard a single then chills out
Young dro has ALWAYS dressed so clean.
Facts tho 💯
He always been a mid rapper too
Definently. I’d even say he made Polo popular as hell.
@@IVANOOZE69 mid?
@@IVANOOZE69 if someone pays a compliment and you feel the need to insult them in response it says nothing of them and only makes you look insecure af
This interview is for people who ever doubt the greatness of TIP
“I can shoulder lean, I don’t know how to dance tho!!!!” Dro a legend! 🔥
Classic line Bro!!!
Lemme see ya bounce right to left and let ya 🗣️Shoulda Leeeann!
Outer space ballin put u up on astronomy, Mathematically wit a pistol I do trigonometry ,humbly , eat up a nigga like a piranha B, ridin in a cutlass same color as a bumblebee
“Dro u from atl , niqqa how u talk Russian?! “Genius line
That freestyle he did on that soul survivor beat was insaneeeeee too. So hard.
We can't ignore that this guy's interview style is classic and gets people to really "tell their story" good job brother. Salute
I always enjoy the people that ask a question and let people answer that same question. Might sound simple but you’d be surprised.
Vlad is one of the best, that is why he is Vlad, however I want to shine more light on the positive side of growing up black, and less about the street side.
Chances are, if you grew up in the hood, you did some stupid stuff growing up, but it was also full of great people who made you who you are today.
Let's put more shine on those people. Those coaches who left the gym open, or who would allow us to hold the key.
My middle school teacher who got to work an hour early everyday to open the computer lab before school.
How fun it was growing up black, the comradery, how much untapped talent that is there.
@@walterlundy723the dude interviewing isn’t Vlad tho.
@@Jahblessnomancurse It's all under his umbrella, his name, his brand
@@walterlundy723 sure, thats obvious. What I’m saying is this particular dude doing the interview has a different style of interviewing compared to Vlad. Just because he’s doing it under Vlad TV doesn’t mean it’s one in the same. Vlad is notorious for cutting people off, rambling about himself, and injecting his personal feelings and experiences into situations when the audience would rather listen to the guest. This particular guy interviewing does his research jus like Vlad, but actually allows the guest to control the narrative.
DRO! I’m clean in this BIH!
Na I'm finna shoulder lean in dis bih
Ok!!!
The REAL RALPH LAUREN KING!! Dro took Ralph Lauren to another level

Yeah I remember Dro back in clay co Ga in the "Wrens crossing" apartments when TI stayed with his aunt across the street. Dro use to watch us and a bunch of young teens and archie which was another Riverdale rapper freestyle high AF laughing with 2 gold chains on ...that was my memory of Dro Crazy ass

@@GLJ2414 Lol okay man if you say so dude I'm 40 years old and have nothing to prove.
Mature up some my guy.
Damn Rip Archie. Southside legend.
Are those the apartments by North Clayton high
When dro first came out he was my favorite can't even front 💯 clean jacket by the way
His first album is classic I wish he would stay rapping like that but he had to get some radio appeal
I'm pretty sure it's clean it was probably washed or hasn't been worn before...
@@sheezykane299 why would I spend money on useless shit like that?😂I'ma grown ass man that works and takes care of his family you think I really care how I look to a bunch of people who don't matter to me?that's that feminine mentality 😂 "im pretty sure you don't have designer clothes"
@@sheezykane299 and I wasn't even hating on the jacket I agreed it was clean and looks new
@@foolishways7960where you from? Clean means nice it’s slang

This one of them interviews I’m going to have to wait so I can watch the entire interview
He cappin!!!!!! Errbody know they first rhyme 😂😂
No cap, Dro one of my favorites period. I love his song Rubberband Banks. It’s my favorite one by him.
Dro look like the 5 time WCW Champion Booker T 🤣🤣🤣
T.i. FIRST ALBUM IM SERIOUS IS his best work. He came out hard asf
Trap Muzic was his hardest album
@@dauntalacey426 nope urban legend and king is his best two projects but to each is own
Can’t go wrong with what y’all saying he has a solid list but I’ll say Trap Muzik is his hardest album and Paper Trail is his best work it’s his most complete work imop
King is most definitely the t.i best work
@@floydjones1219 @dauntalacey426 king of the south is my best song from him..2nd is Live in the sky off of KING album... . But complete album front to back Im Serious. But like said each is own
Notice how he didn’t ask him anything about the shootout, Vlad would’ve asked 4 questions about that shootout 🤣
Dro I’m clean in this bihh.. I was a youngin playin his album
That song drug related by tip he speaking real numbers 😂
I agree but those was baby numbers he was talking tip was a low level drug dealer but to his credit he never said he was a kingpin
More cheeeseee for meeee
That whole mixtape slap
@@lowkey6597 low level or not , he was gettin it. Still had money in his pockets💯 these niggas nowadays just be on the game waiting for their momma or daddy to give them shit, tip was gettin it on his own 💯
Young Dro verse on ‘Bankhead’ is legendary
We use to call plad shorts “Dro shorts” back in the day. Had the matching visors and all that with the coke white forces.
Shorty Lo was up to several 100k deals up to millions and Ti was nickel and dimes lol
Young Dro remembers his first rhyme he just didn’t want to Rap it at the time lol
No cap I started listening to dro after listening to his interviews
Dro had dat Ralph Lauren shit in the bag🤝real ones remember
Had all us rocking Polo like some addicts 🤣
TI is trap muzik!!
Rat 🐀🌈 Music
@@awee5816 Naw, that's Rick Ross music
That hellcat mixtape by dro n Zaytoven is a classic 🔥🔥🔥🔥
🎶Dro I'm clean in dis bih yea I'm bouta shoulder lean in dis bih🎶
Anyone catch when he said he used to sell out the speaker. In the movie ATL, he grabbed the money out the speaker and reference to his old times
That Jackie Chan by dro!!! 🔥
I forgot all about that song 😅
Lol migos and Gucci did a remix
Dro breathe freestyle is the best freestyle I ever heard
EVERYTIME the interviewer say ok that shit funnny af 😂
Yea my boi Dro I’m here 🥇
Ti always been a legend to me. The internet and niggas be hating on him, but he always was a stand up dude who stood on business. Dro just re confirmed that ti really came from that cloth. Tip never claimed to be the biggest drug dealer or the toughest niga, he always just said he was in the streets doin his thing. Even DJ toomp confirmed that in his interviews. Boy was wild
He's a mark
He just said tip wasn't From Bankhead. But from Riverdale. Not only that but T.I. stop talking to Dro because they said Dro was a tattletale. Mr.1-800Tips 🐀🌈 also tip stop talking to Sean Paul for the same reason.
@@oscarvillarreal8951 He clearly said TI was from the west side & they both moved to the southside.
@@Tracklyfe_T Shiit was clearly stated.
Ti was a drug dealer which isn’t uncommon in our community’s but he acts like he’s some gangster when he’s not. Carrying guns & not using them don’t mean nothing when you got killers really putting in that work. He’s a a drug dealing rapper not a stepper
Dro is like diddy, them ninjas look different with shades off 😂 .
Maann listen i had ties with dudes from atl in the late 90s early 2000 t.i was nothing to play with ,he was n still is a boss how many dudes had tip in their convo or convos besides shawty lo , lil flip and alpha omega ? And no one could really touch him put it together its self explanatory ! Dro knows what tip is about!
Dro influence me to change my style in rapping
“I said I was gone never hurt you! You said you was gone never hurt me, and we lied!”
I lied to her plus I lied to myself nothing left the relationship done lost it breath!!
That was 🔥
Yezir!!!!!
Literally just played this ain’t today
And I got them same kinda guns like T.I!!
Did you only do a year and a day 🚓🚔 ???
Been my Fav artist since I heard shoulder lean. Always a good interview when Dro in the building.. Blessings!
HE THE REAL KING OF THE SOUTH EVERYBODY KNOW IT . I BEEN ON DRO FROM 1996 TO NOW. TIGHT FOR LIFE . Blame it on the DRO .
Snitch 🐀 of the South
I stay by Grandma Nana!!
I lay by my Banana 😂
Young dro album is classic
Young Dro is a lyrical monster that is very slept on because of his rhyme style. Incredible artist.
We be in tha city 🎶🔥🔥
It’s giving tony ya yo and 50 cent vibes
Most underrated been one my favorite til this day
The way he described his friendship with Tip is the same way I was back in the day . Cool but hot headed and ready for action lol.. 🤷🏾♂️ Libra gang ♎️
Dro always said T.I. was that dude. Also Dro is the only dude Shawty Lo never dissed out of the Grand Hustle label.
Shawty Lo said he wasn't. And everyone knew Shawty in Bankhead.
DRO AND TIP REAL LIFE HOMIES 💯
With the cops 👮
TI used to pull up on people selling bootleg cds
At gas stations. It was funny as hell. They wouldn’t know what to say😂
He represents polo from day 1 !
Idk why ppl always play with TI like he wasn’t bout nun😂😂😂
Cause he kept on telling back to back after the crime...😐
So he met ti 28 year's ago in 1995 when he was 16 and ti was 15 dro is one older than ti 1979-1980 that is 1
Thanks. 😒
@@jeremyblackwater439 I just courting dro met ti one year after he got shot
Welcome
Dro looks like Cedric the Entertainer 😂
Dro n t.I are the best 🎉
Not Gonna Cap The Main Reason I Wanted To Watch This Interview Was To See If TIP Really Bout It.. We Bout To Get In Some Deep Shit Yall !
You didn't already know that? Lol
If u from Atlanta you know wats up.
if you listened to other ppls interviews from the Game to Charlemagne tha God, they all said T.I. one of the realest rappers
@@flyghtmyleage6041 even i knew that
@@flyghtmyleage6041 niggas say 50 a snitch according to bangem smurf he aint that
T.I. looking at this interview like...noooo I don't know what this man is talking about..drug dealer? Lol!!! 🤷🤦 😂
Lol
You def not a real tip fan
Shoulder Lean, On Fire, Put The House On Me, Take Off!, Shyne...... man dro MADDDDDDDDD talented. Them boys were legit.
Love them small towns back in my day 😂
Interview of 2023 so far 🤌
Vlad is at it again! I am inspired by his channel. Vlad inspires me to start my own channel on investing.
Just go to work, you won’t make it
@@promaterialll9379 lol
I feel like Tip just like dro because he’s funny AF lol all his best friends are comedians or street dudes
I'm clean in this bih.... bro shining.... sobriety is a superpower so called black man
“He was a real tattle tell”
T.I. 2
I know somebody beat me to it but Y'all ain't never heard a dope boy on the piano BE EASY so Dro confirmed that 💯!
Lol Tip been makin beats. Alotta rappers be acting like dey don't want da credit or sumn lol
You can do both but he looked bad when he also was working with the cops
"Erybody kno me in da club come smoke wit me Dro come tote wit me ice come from Boca Raton"
"Oogayy, switch topics with me for second"
I like this guy❤️
I've always said Tip was the real deal. I remember him playing the piano in the "Be Easy" video.
That Lollipop Gangster is one of the best rap songs to grace my ears on God.
Paint the rover brown like a Mars Bar
Interesting… so he was friends with Kris Kross, yet he was friends with T.I…. And T.I. Dissed Kris Kross… lol kinda weird being the man in the middle
Him & T.I. were friends with the PO PO so ...
T.I always been real in his raps, you can hear the truth through the lyrics. Go listen to Wildside from Trouble man 🔥 🇬🇧
Dro just said Tip is from Riverdale not Bankhead. Also Dro was no longer on tips circle because he was an informant 🐀🌈. Even though Tip told on his cousin way... before Dro's situations.
The Realest part is how he says he's not a Tattletale 👈🐀👉 & Tells every time he gets in trouble.
😂😂😁😁😁 sounds like neither one of them are from bankhead
@@oscarvillarreal8951 you niggas have selective hearing he just said they got apartment in clay co and when he seen tip they were both some WESTSIDE niggas .. he was happy to see a Nigga that speak his language.. you goofy ass niggas love to get on here and lie .. everybody from ATLANTA knows tip is really from Bankhead
@@oscarvillarreal8951 riverdale is n still is a fucked up area u dnt wanna be from same shit
I believe that because In Atl he pulled that money out da speaker too show Ant 😂😂💯
Ppl dont mention Dro hardly enough when they talk about Atlanta GREATS. Bar for bar, speakin on strictly lyrical ability, he prolly top 10 out da A.
