Curry was a beast in high school and I’m glad he told Glad that he came from a 2 parent household and wasn’t involved in the streets. Curry negated any street question that Glad would want to ask.
The way Eddie can articulate his thoughts is great to see on display. And also the fact he’s not on here trying to say he was outside doing this and that thuggin is also great to hear.
I remember when everyone automatically assumed vlad gonna do every interview but nowadays we see a new interview we just pray it’s vlad even though we have a love-hate relationship with him lol
😂😂😂😂 word. Shorty be sounding star struck with her interviewing process. Shawn Prez is decent, same with Coach PR. Hopefully Shirley gets better the more she works, I ain't gonna shit on her cuz she's interviewed some cool people but her style of interview is agitating sometimes
I love when ppl call Vlad a culture vulture, but ppl in our own culture who have platforms wouldn’t share it with ppl like Eddie because of relevancy. Hate him as much as you want but you can’t deny that he shines the light on ppl that haven’t been in the light for a minute and gives them an extra opportunity .
I used to criticize Vlad when he first came out only interviewing Rap beefs but once he started interviewing music legends and people who is currently behind the limelight who is now able to tell they side of the story I shut all of that criticism up and gave him his props from then on. yet you still have trolls and fake woke people on here crying and bitching 24/7 yet won't go out and follow somebody else. if i had a problem with Vladtv culture wise , i would have been unfollowed a long time ago instead of being a hypocrite . that's like complaining about McDonalds but eating there everyday
My boi! Who grew up watching “Preps” Eddy Curry, Jason Straight, Luther Head, Will Bynum? Crazy how when you a kid certain people impact you even more than those who have bigger names.
Don’t forget about Kyle kleckner too 😂😂 but preps was my favorite show in 8th grade because it showed the reality of being in the hood navigating life while clinging on to the hope of makin it out the hood by hoopin and you see it through the eyes of these dudes which I thought was great reality tv, That triple overtime game between Sean dockery and will Bynum in the playoffs was a all time classic.
Man some serious ball players come out of Chicago that's what I always associated Chicago with. Chicago has always been bad but our generation never cared because because everywhere was bad back then. This generation for some reason is obsessed with the violence there because of the internet and the rappers from there. They have no clue Chicago really known for having some serious hoopers.
I grew up watching eddy curry but his hype was no where near Brons. I don’t think it’ll be another high schooler with the hype lebron had. Even more crazier because social media wasn’t even as prevalent as it was today.
The love of basketball keeps a lot of black men in shape in their 20s and 30s. I tell everyone to play at least 1 sport in high school that way your use to working out as an adult.
@@lowkeyzeke7056 yea his name was Kyle Kleckner, he was out in da burbs he had game tho I thought he was jus a lil overrated but that’s just me lol, I thought Jason straight was goin to the league tho he was that cold to me but he did his thing at Wyoming, I still watch preps to this day on TH-cam
Respect as a black man making it out from where he from, sorry for lost of his child🙏 Still he got rich and lost his hunger to ball unfortunately w/ Knicks along with injuries.
@@TheCaptain773 Harris owns beggars in Harvey off Sibley. Ely is my homie went to brooks and Thornton with him and Randle el is the best football player I ever seen. Tai Streets went to Thornton to
You can throw a rock from Harvey to Chicago. People not from Chicago probably don't understand those suburbs are rough area da. Harvey is about as tough as it gets.
The crazy thing is that I’ve watched a lot of other videos of him before I watched this one and this man strikes me as intelligent even though he never went to college. It goes to show you that if you don’t go to college and you are still going to make it in life you better be intelligent.
Being from Chicago, I am 46 so definitely hits on all cylinders and people don’t realize, Chicago people are really good peeps and have good attitudes from my perspective and creates a grit in your character…
When Eddie Curry said he had a two parent house hold, Vlad was like “Damn, this guy probably won’t end up going to prison for 68 years after this interview. Damn”! Brilliant! Cheers mates!!
@@Commsense750 Yeah, he loves bringing up “ready rock”. It was only called that on a couple of rap songs back in the day. It was never really called that on the street. But it makes him feel like he was in the streets. Dude was home schooled his whole life. He even went to college home school!
This man is 40 something. He ain’t flipping like that anymore but he could definitely start or help support a gymnastics team. I would love to see more black male gymnast. My cousin use to have me flipping at a young age.
Elton Brand didn’t play with Chandler/Curry. The Bulls traded Elton Brand for Tyson Chandler on draft night , but yea with Chandler/Curry potential was suppose to be really big especially coming from high school. That Baby Bulls era was like plant just waiting to see grow and blossom l but unfortunately things didn’t pa. Out as suppose to be
Love when vlad does the interviews! It’s vladtv for a reason, sorry man but we come for the dialogue you create with your tone and energy vlad, it can’t be replaced take pride in it!
I met Eddy Curry when they were filming him on that documentary I was working at Target department store in Crestwood IL another suburb outside of Chicago he came in and I was like damn Who is this giant LOL and my coworker was like that's Eddy Curry he about to be drafted in the NBA! I said hell he better Buddy tall as hell lol. Eddy was super cool!
Chicago loves eddy curry. We had that squad with him Tyson chandler, jamal Crawford, Kirk hinrich and jay Williams. We had a squad and then jay will got into that motorcycle accident and bulls blew up the team
Every major city has a surrounding county that feel like they have to prove themselves.. LA and IE DC and PG county Philly and Delco county Atlanta and Gwinnett county etc
Yep I remember that show. One of the first reality sports shows ever. Had him. Cappie Poindexter. Luther head. Will Bynum. And this wyte cat that I can't really remember
Eddie and I are the same age I remember watching the preps Chicago hoops doc when I was a senior in high school and then watching one with Tyson Chandler
I was put on to EDDIE CURRY from that PREPS: CHICAGO HOOPS Documentary. It was him, SEAN DOCKERY who played at DUKE, LUTHOR HEAD who played for ILLINOIS, JAY STRAIGHT who played for WICHITA ST and WILL THE THRILL BYNUM who played for ARIZONA first and then transferred to GEORGIA TECH. It was really dope.
As Chicagoan and lifetime Bulls fan thought Eddy and Tyson Chandler would be the twin towers that would lead to multiple playoffs wins and championships.
Absolute beast at Thornwood H.S…. Harvey back then wasn’t as rough as it is now, not even 10 minutes away from the city. Depends on how far u are within the south side.
Jesse white used to come out to the block parties man hearing this interview brings back my child hood. Glad I cherished those days. Enjoy your life ppl

🤣🤣🤣
Call me "Glad". Dead 😂
I saw Curry play in high school. He went to my rival high school. We use to whoop they ass💯
@@madmaxpirate oh so you made it to the nba right?
@@KilledUm 😂😂😂
The way Eddie can articulate his thoughts is great to see on display. And also the fact he’s not on here trying to say he was outside doing this and that thuggin is also great to hear.
@Tommy Johnny you’re clearly not smart if you equate being articulate to using “big words.” SMDH
And you’re aging soo gracefully
Also don't understand why your surprised at his ability to speak clearly and with addiction and then you acquainted with speaking articulately 🤔
@@CoachChef because it’s so many dummies like you who don’t know the difference between “your” and “you’re.”
I remember when everyone automatically assumed vlad gonna do every interview but nowadays we see a new interview we just pray it’s vlad even though we have a love-hate relationship with him lol
A much needed comment 😂🎯

You on your own.
I swear to GOD 😭
🐐’d comment!!!!
I love when ppl call Vlad a culture vulture, but ppl in our own culture who have platforms wouldn’t share it with ppl like Eddie because of relevancy. Hate him as much as you want but you can’t deny that he shines the light on ppl that haven’t been in the light for a minute and gives them an extra opportunity .
Or maybe the “famous” black people don’t go to other black interviewers because they don’t have as much followers as Vlad..
@Idread hate to say it it be our on kind HATE'N on each other! sad forreal!
@@Obstakill ok
Excellent point, stay positive!
I used to criticize Vlad when he first came out only interviewing Rap beefs but once he started interviewing music legends and people who is currently behind the limelight who is now able to tell they side of the story I shut all of that criticism up and gave him his props from then on. yet you still have trolls and fake woke people on here crying and bitching 24/7 yet won't go out and follow somebody else. if i had a problem with Vladtv culture wise , i would have been unfollowed a long time ago instead of being a hypocrite . that's like complaining about McDonalds but eating there everyday
My guy. Good dude. Admired his journey growing up in Chicago. We watched Preps. Good times.
Used to watch that every morning before going to Junior HS in the Lou.
I remember watching Preps too with Will Bynum and Sean Dockery.
My boi! Who grew up watching “Preps” Eddy Curry, Jason Straight, Luther Head, Will Bynum? Crazy how when you a kid certain people impact you even more than those who have bigger names.
Don’t forget about Kyle kleckner too 😂😂 but preps was my favorite show in 8th grade because it showed the reality of being in the hood navigating life while clinging on to the hope of makin it out the hood by hoopin and you see it through the eyes of these dudes which I thought was great reality tv, That triple overtime game between Sean dockery and will Bynum in the playoffs was a all time classic.
Najeeb Echols
@Gadi I became a Sean Dockery fan because of Preps.
TRUE STORY!!!!! That was MY ISH!!!!!
“3 The Hard Way” as well Preps was the shit
Eddy Curry and Will Bynum
I became a huge fan of them 2 guys
Stay blessed
Will bynum had a fucking handle🔥
I went to Thornton and we played against Curry and the Thornwood Thunderbirds he had 30 against us. He was a 6’10 freshman
yall was trash he only had 15 points against us lol
@@sammiegreenlee286 What school you went to? Because my Thornton team from 96-98 only lost 4 games
They beat us in the semifinals in '01. That should've been our year. Morgan Park, MPHS!
@@dwizz90 much love to Morgan Park who won it that year. Do you know

Glad to see your doing well Eddy
Dude seem like a good human being
Eddy Currys high school hype was a notch below Lebron, thats how big he was when he was coming up. Love this guy.
I grew up watching eddy curry but his hype was no where near Brons. I don’t think it’ll be another high schooler with the hype lebron had. Even more crazier because social media wasn’t even as prevalent as it was today.
@@Obstakill Yea, you are right.
@@Obstakill bc you can’t go from hs anymore its changing back tho next year or something like that
He wasn't near LeBron level. Nothing has been like that.
@@SGBOS-ux7bm I agree, was definitely high when I wrote my comment.
The love of basketball keeps a lot of black men in shape in their 20s and 30s.
I tell everyone to play at least 1 sport in high school that way your use to working out as an adult.
Playing a sport definitely keeps you young. I tell everyone to stick with w.e they started with. It's hoop for me
It definitely pays off in the long run.
Always gotta mention race lmaooooo you ppl are the problem
@@gregeisley88 fax went from hoops to weightliftin!
@@dominicbrogsdale3348 yup i hear you bro. I went from hoops to crossfit and yoga.
God bless this brotha and his family
The Preps show is a classic..Eddy, Bynum, Dockery etc..
The white boy too He played baseball ⚾️ as well I think
@@lowkeyzeke7056 yea his name was Kyle Kleckner, he was out in da burbs he had game tho I thought he was jus a lil overrated but that’s just me lol, I thought Jason straight was goin to the league tho he was that cold to me but he did his thing at Wyoming, I still watch preps to this day on TH-cam
Luther Head and Dee Brown too. Good times
"Go ahead, call me Glad" 🤣🤣🤣
Eddy Curry seems pure & genuine.
Respect as a black man making it out from where he from, sorry for lost of his child🙏
Still he got rich and lost his hunger to ball unfortunately w/ Knicks along with injuries.
He's limo driver sued him
Eddie is right. You can cross the street from Harvey to Chicago
Facts I am from 145th green I grew up 3 min from Chicago I went to Thornton
@@csnee101 ok, Randle El, Napoleon harris went there. My cousin was at Thornwood with Eddy.
@@TheCaptain773 I went to school with all of them bro.
@@TheCaptain773 Harris owns beggars in Harvey off Sibley. Ely is my homie went to brooks and Thornton with him and Randle el is the best football player I ever seen. Tai Streets went to Thornton to
@@csnee101 I went to school with Tai streets sister at South
Graduated in 01 like me. Him, Tyson Chandler and Kwame Brown were supposed to take over the NBA right out of HS in that same draft.
Especially when Curry and Tyson played on the same team. Crazy
Facts. I graduated in 99, Fremont High. Gilbert was in my year. I forgot who the #1 guy was in 99.
Damn you guys are old.
@@royalfreshness815 if you're lucky you'll get here too. I graduated in 97... 43yrs young now..
@@royalfreshness815 lol!! I turned 40 last month so yes.
As a Knicks fan I just want to shout out Eddie curry
You can throw a rock from Harvey to Chicago. People not from Chicago probably don't understand those suburbs are rough area da. Harvey is about as tough as it gets.
Exactly im from englewood, we would take the pace bus on halsted there all the time
please let them know because think its only chicago
@@Black-Pill-7411 You ain't lying. My wife's grandmother lives on 151st and Vine. Every other house is abandoned.
@@Black-Pill-7411 watch it brother that’s my hometown
Harvey is still a suburb of Chicago no matter how you slice it
I would argue that LeBron is the most famous high school player to go pro. Respect to Kobe, but LeBron hype was on another level.
I Was Just Finna Say That 😂 No Disrespect To Kobe But LeBron Had The Most Hype!
Vlad don’t know basketball 😂
@@marcusteasley8395 I Swear He Don’t 😂 Watch He Bring Up The Gary Payton Interview 😂😂😂
Nah for real . Straight Facts
Kevin Garnett
I remember the hype around him coming out of high school was crazy
This interview bout to be crazy
The crazy thing is that I’ve watched a lot of other videos of him before I watched this one and this man strikes me as intelligent even though he never went to college. It goes to show you that if you don’t go to college and you are still going to make it in life you better be intelligent.

@@Commsense750 Yeah, he loves bringing up “ready rock”. It was only called that on a couple of rap songs back in the day. It was never really called that on the street. But it makes him feel like he was in the streets. Dude was home schooled his whole life. He even went to college home school!
@@Tubefish07 That explains his success
😂😂😂😂
This gonna be a good 1 👍
Never too late to live your dream Eddy. Do a tryout for the Tumblers!
This man is 40 something. He ain’t flipping like that anymore but he could definitely start or help support a gymnastics team. I would love to see more black male gymnast. My cousin use to have me flipping at a young age.
🤦🏾♂️
Pretty sure this was a joke(the commenter, i mean). Lol.
Been waiting on this interview, much respect Vlad!
Curry, Tyson Chandler, and Elton Brand were supposed to put the Bulls back on the map!
Brand and Chandler had pretty good careers. Curry had flashes but his career was disappointing. At least he got paid.
Elton Brand didn’t play with Chandler/Curry. The Bulls traded Elton Brand for Tyson Chandler on draft night , but yea with Chandler/Curry potential was suppose to be really big especially coming from high school. That Baby Bulls era was like plant just waiting to see grow and blossom l but unfortunately things didn’t pa. Out as suppose to be
Love when vlad does the interviews! It’s vladtv for a reason, sorry man but we come for the dialogue you create with your tone and energy vlad, it can’t be replaced take pride in it!

i remember watching him on a reality show Preps:Chicago
I remember watching Preps...Dope show
YES... Vlad keeps topping himself with these interviews
I remember the documentary on ESPN during high school journey to NBA.💯
I used to watch Preps Chicago Hoops!
No Jumper tried to interview athletes and Vlad had to show Adam who the legend is when it comes to this
Chicago loves eddy curry. We had that squad with him Tyson chandler, jamal Crawford, Kirk hinrich and jay Williams. We had a squad and then jay will got into that motorcycle accident and bulls blew up the team
Bro was a full grown man before even reaching the 9th grade! 🤣
“Walk me through your first murder” -Glad
I remember Eddie Curry . I went to Thornwood with Bro . I dated Nova Henry his Baby Mom 🤱 she was real nice .
I was born in Ingalls raised in Chicago Heights Illinois

@@CappenKrunch facts
Thornwood’s Finest … My boy Eddie Curry … Love that Man. That’s family
GOOD SHIT VLAD
A Legend. Savior of the Knicks
Glad he gotta tell his story....
Yep I remember that show. One of the first reality sports shows ever. Had him. Cappie Poindexter. Luther head. Will Bynum. And this wyte cat that I can't really remember
Luther head was a beast at Illinois
Harvey Illinois... Home of Marvin Junior, Johnny Carter, Mickey McGill, Chuck Barksdale and Verne Allison.
Eddie and I are the same age I remember watching the preps Chicago hoops doc when I was a senior in high school and then watching one with Tyson Chandler
I was put on to EDDIE CURRY from that PREPS: CHICAGO HOOPS Documentary. It was him, SEAN DOCKERY who played at DUKE, LUTHOR HEAD who played for ILLINOIS, JAY STRAIGHT who played for WICHITA ST and WILL THE THRILL BYNUM who played for ARIZONA first and then transferred to GEORGIA TECH. It was really dope.
Fox Sports use to have a show called Preps with Ed Curry & a few other Chicago high-school players on it
i remember that
Tyson chandler was on it too
Preps was classic realest show ever me and my guys watched preps every day afterschool before TH-cam gateway too young hoop scene
I did not know Eddie Curry’s baby mother was Ryan Henry’s(black ink 9mag) sister. That’s crazy, such a small world.
My Dude Eddy Curry Always Solid NYK Forever.!!
That year Chicago had some hoopers. Luther Head, Will bynum etc
He is about to get a lot of views, he has a crazy story.
I remember him being in high school like it was yesterday. Him and Sean Dockery were the guys. Will Bymun too..
As Chicagoan and lifetime Bulls fan thought Eddy and Tyson Chandler would be the twin towers that would lead to multiple playoffs wins and championships.
Calumet City , Riverdale , dolton Harvey are outskirts of Chicago like in walking distance from each other not really surburbs if based on crimes
Curry one of the greatest of all time this guy a legend for real
He not no legend stop it! lol.
The Chicago Hoops TV show used to go up '01.
Damn I'm happy he pointed out the south suburbs isn't the Southside of the city
Glad gonna drag this interview for days
Absolute beast at Thornwood H.S…. Harvey back then wasn’t as rough as it is now, not even 10 minutes away from the city. Depends on how far u are within the south side.
He's right I grew up in Harvey since the age of 2,I'm 49 now Chicago and Harvey are basically one in the same
Jesse white used to come out to the block parties man hearing this interview brings back my child hood. Glad I cherished those days. Enjoy your life ppl
Vlad you should interview “Lenny Cooke” next
For those that don’t know Eddy’s story is WILD. Vlad I hope you ask the right questions. This could be epic

@@vladtv Where's the Sen Dog interview?
As a kid growing up in Chicago suburbs, and always rooting for the Chicago Bulls… it was rough watching Eddie Curry play for The Bulls.
Why tho it's still in the same state
I remember him from the knicks
Big Eddy Curry! I was waiting on this !
Man growing up in Chicago this was my hero him and Tyson chandler.
I watched him play in hs. He used to give our school hell lol. He was a giant. He went to thornwood hs
I saw this dude at the Walgreens on 147th and Torrence when he still went to Thornwood, he was damn near touching the ceiling...
I remember his & Tyson Chandlers tv show, crazy
I’ve been waiting on this interview!
Thanks for not allowing Shirley Ju doing this one. Hopefully Southside was her last gig 🤲🏾
Agreed_ I thought I was the only hoping that's 🤣
Bruh…this man is huge. I was on a elevator with him. I am 6’4 270…he made me feel small.
If Vlad can get a Worldwide Wes interview, we can really say he out here lol
I remember going to highschool with him and Jason weaver Thornwood in the 90's was very interesting.
I used to watch his reality show all the time in middle school
Everyone calls him “glad” after the crunchy black interview 📌💯🤣🤣🤣‼️‼️💭
People that raised in the south suburbs from chicago like me Understand places like chicago heights and harvey got bad areas too
I'm from the 60411. Lynwood 😆 🤣 😂
Chicago Heights and Harvey was wild in the 90s ..
Gotta love Glad lmao I remember The Jessie White tumblers
Harvey Markham is a ruff area
