- Rapper Yelawolf returned to VladTV after over a decade since his last interview on the platform. The music artist detailed his upbringing in Alabama and Tennessee, highlighting his rebellious teenage years filled with skateboarding, drugs, and evading trouble with the law. He also talked about his introduction to Hip-Hop before experiencing homelessness and moving back to the south to hone in on his image. Continuing to develop his sound while living in an Alabama trailer park, Yelawolf eventually moved to Atlanta and signed with Ghetto Vision Entertainment. After gaining a buzz through hooks and merging rock, country, and rap, he secured a major deal with Interscope through the release of his "Trunk Muzik" mixtape. The Interscope deal paved the way for a partnership with Eminem's Shady Records and a number of notable releases and collaborative EPs. To hear Yelawolf detail his life and career, check out the full interview above.

GET RYAN UPCHURCH AS A GUEST!!
Probably one of the most versatile dudes in hip hop been listening to him since I was in highschool. Still listening today
You can definitely tell Yelawolf does not trust Vlad lol. Hes normally a lot more friendly.
Could be. Or he’s sober lol
That's what I thought
Seems like he's taking benzos
There's a bigger audience here too who if y'all don't recall called him a racist white boy redneck
@@slum4510I’d say sober
I met Yela BEFORE he became famous while down in Gadsden Alabama building a log house. Really humble & intelligent individual. He has definitely came a long way since then.
Tell us more - how was he?
I met him too I was working front desk at a TownePlace Suites when he was touring Love Story, It was really brief but he was dope. Nice guy
Cap
Yelawolf is scared of Bama mfer is never there. 💀
He’s So underrated it’s crazy. He has word play skills like no other
For real. I cannot understand why this guy is so underrated. It makes no sense to me.
Agreed!🤘🏽
He won't give up that hole 🕳️ katt wasn't lying!!! Sometimes Diddy wants to party and you got to tell him no
"Sometimes Y" is the best rock album I've heard in DECADES ... And he's a hell of an MC as well. Most overall talented artist I can think of..
Thumbs up for Yelawolf not Vlad
I was just saying that man...like damn Vlad really shushed Wolf like that...I would have walked out
So glad you brought Yela back! Great interview. He deserves way more recognition for what he's done in music🔥🤘
Hell yeah! Absolutely!🤘🏽
Yelawolf straight up legendary!!
What rock band is in again?
Sometimes Y is the rock album
😂
I don't even know what to say
@@damonscarface2063 definitely need to listen to his music if you haven't before
Yelawolf is one of my favorite artists. Thanks for this Vlad
Same! He’s one of my all time favorites 🤘🏽
Yelawolf gonna keep it authentic when it comes to the art.
This why the people that been listening to him before even shady still love this dude. Always been the same except where he’s learned, improved and mastered.
Killed it on the shady cypher 🏆 🐐 em Stan’s gonna get mad but his verse was better
Forget genres, aint no box you can put Yela in unless its gotta bowtie on it! This man is more than a rapper he is an artist. A true living representation of the word. Love Story is one of the best albums ever made. Slumerican Made!
🤘🏽
Great interview, yela is for sure a goat
"Rock N Roll Baby" is incredible. So is "Radio"
Which Radio? 😊
@@HavocsBells on Sometimes Y
@@MinivanmusicianBoth are pretty good, but that's my favorite too!
She got the man with the long hair...
She'll be heartbroke by the sunlight
So good to see Yelawolf!!!!!! Thank you so much for doing the interview. Rare site to see him sit down like this too.
Yela doing another hiphop album is the best thing in years!! An absolute legend, one of the best to ever do it!!
great interview, love this!
Wolf not a big fan of vlad. Watch his other interviews
Bro he hasn't got a gun to he's head he agreed to the interview
Then why the fuck would you be there.
Yellawolf is an amazing lyricist! And 1000% one of my all time favorites 🏁💪 Awesome interview
Dude put in his work and keeps it 💯
Phenomenal interview . Much love and success to yela
Yelawolf has been in this game for a min. Love his work respect the grind.
My big bro put me on to Yelawolf back in 03 or 04 ish when he would make moves in BHam.
Yelawolf is the best
Wow man I just became a yela wolf fan, what a knowledgeable stand up dude.
Happy mothers day to all the mothers out there especially mama wolf.
Gotta watch this my dawg
How do I get in touch with Yelawolf to get one of his tattoos? I had a very similar thing happen to me with the psych stuff and that resonated with me heavy.
Been a long time!!! Decade+ since the last Vlad and Yela collab.
I have always wanted an in-depth interview like this with yelawolf, I've seen a few but I feel like they've never totally went through everything. Never thought I would say this, but thank you for that Vlad. And of course Yelawolf much thanks for the interview and all the timeless music you create.🤘
Yelawolf a real ass dude. He seems like a a$$hole but the more I watched these he’s just a real dude that ain’t about any kinda bs. He knows what an interview can do and twist his words and he makes sure that ain’t happening ever again.
Been here since pop the trunk premiered on world star what 14 years ago?
Just like Kendrick with high power on world star
@worldstar use to be the joint. Scroll thru videos everyday. I’ve found some of my favorite artist from them before people knew who they were.
He’s actually super cool very genuine extremely real!
Love this Interview - would have loved a question about the Royce Da 5'9 Diss lines that came out a while ago.
Yelawolf ⚡️🤘🏼⚡️ (criminally underrated)
Going to meet Yela in Bristol VA tonight at 6 ! Can't wait to meet you bro 💯
What the hell!!! I didn’t know he was in VA!!! I would’ve went 😢
He deserves a better place to tell his story 🤘🖤⚡
Love yela. U should get Ritz next
dJ Vlad wit da heat🔥🔥
ima be completely honest , shady never did shit to market wolf , love story didnt go gold because of shady , it went gold because of motherfuckers like me who traveled around the country doing promo for free and hung 5000 flyers around nashville , yeah the shady cosign was cool but his fanbase has always carried his promo , i have the posts and videos of all the shit we did on the street team, guerilla marketing , flyers in skate shops , smoke shops u name it we were there
I'm pretty sure the song best friend with eminem helped a lot so shady did do something. Radioactive wasn't great n def needed a change so love story definitely was the album that made it all work out - em produced some beats on it too
Em not a great producer tbh his quality of beats are so much better now that he's on his own
Wolf is the man. Been listening to him since ‘04. Slumerican family
Amazing to see the progression of his music and art. Keep it Dusty!
I've been a Yelawolf fan for a long time. He's grown a lot over the years. Interesting guy. 🌟⚡
One of my favs...Yela!!!
Really like this whole platform. Vlad always kills it. Yella was really monotone and boring AF. Zero excitement. Love Yella just needs something to push it up a level.
Literally watching peanut butter falcon right now and as this poped up
One of the best to ever do. Yela is a goat
Yelawolf has so many great songs...his black sheep album with Caskey is the best album in 25 years
Very interesting
This is dope
HE IS A LEGEND!!!!! Love this dude ❤️❤️❤️
Not to take away anything from Yelawolf or anybody else but bone thugs did a really good country song with mo thugs back in 2000 I believe called ghetto cowboy. There's a video for it and everything they were definitely ahead of the curb
Yelawolf has a ghetto cowboy song prob sampled the one you're talking about.
Can’t wait for this album. Yela is the fucking man
The most true artist of all time. And all time great.
Finn said, "Fuck 'em!" 😂🎉😊😊😊
I love how real he is. I love how he is telling how he kept picking himself up and kept moving, kept pushing to get where he wanted. I like how he admits he was broke numerous times. A lot of artists stunt like they always had money and always was on. So it's refreshing to hear a real one speak and talk about the failures and the let downs, and still keep on the grind. Much love and respect to Yela and his team. 🫡
❤❤❤ Thank you so much
The way Vladimir says okay after each response irritates me to no end
It's just a verbal fade/transition
Same!
Ok
YELA! ⚡️
I live in Gadsden , crazy to see a hometown dude
Yelawolf the goat
Bro should remix country roads!!
TAKE CARE GOD BLESS🙏🙏🙏
Underated wolf !! 🔥
If I’m not mistaken, I think he’s performing today in North Carolina right down the road from me in Black Mountain
I went to that show! Lol I'm from black mountain! That's crazy
Yelawolf does little to no interviews so im interested in learning more and being able to hear his own thoughts.
I've been listening to Yela since before radioactive came out,
Yelawolf in his own lane. I've been a fan for years. Dudes a beast
So much respect for his grind
Thank you for telling your story 😊❤🫂🙏🏽💚
I wished he asked him about the Royce da 5’9 situation 🥲
Nah
What exactly is there to know though?
@@HavocsBells was Royce accusation right how and where did he get that information from being called a racist is serious accusations
@ChocolateDon929 I think he addressed it in a way. It wasn't him, if it was said, and he wasn't going to throw anyone under the bus either. I would have been interested to know the conversation that went down around it though.
@@HavocsBells exactly!!! 🎯
I like yelawolf. He reminds me of the maturing Eminem.
So cool this man went fishing. Idk any other rappers that have done it
Don’t make me pop the trunk 🤘
Yes!!!!
Mike. Wth was tou doing in Killeen Texas?
Yela 🔥
Good for you and your success brother...you are who you are because where you came from! You are you!!! Respect here...
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 wolf is a goat
Why the fuck does Vlad sound like an automated voicemail everytime he asks a question?!
I ❤ this man so much 🥰❤️🥰❤️
Yela keeps discreetly flipping off Vlad the whole time! Love it!
Been listening to wolf for the longest. You should do music with upchurch🤘from cburg alabama
Uh uh I been listening to him longer.
Upchurch out he dropping n bombs so probably not
This feels like he not a fan of vlad.
Yela needs to do a track or an album with Nergal.
@yelawolf is an icon in music and I love the interview it’s really inspiring and I salute him for fighting and grinding to accomplish what he did. The only thing I disagree with is Struggle being the king of country rap. It’s not for me to say who is but I can think of a few that is way more capable of holding that title. But I like Struggle and his music there’s definitely no hate but I’m just being real.
it's funny to hear him talk about Creekwater...that it did nothing...I absolutely love that album. The more I come back to it the better it gets
💯
Yela has been a bad ass artist and true to his style since day one. Much respect due to the dude. Now if I could get him to help me with The Beat of Life like Jelly Roll did…legendary status for that.
Im not even half way through your story and understand why I feel so drawn to you. ❤💛
Much love yela
DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE TO GET THAT HAT ????
Google the company & give them a call
ALRIGHT HERE WE GO, THE WHOLE INTERVIEW IS HERE, WELCOME TO VLADTV!!!! This is your first time here, so I wanna start in the very beginning. Yelawolf, always a pleasure, until next time.... PEACE!!!!
🔥Wolf is real Talent🔥
That Album Creek Water didn’t make it but what it did do was make my ears check back into rap lyrics. Creekwater gave me the same feeling I got after listening to Goodie Mob’s Still Standing Record. Just like this is the shit and you could feel the storm about to come.
@yelawolf I didn’t see the golf coming. That’s wild. Wakesurfing or racing something… btw I have a stock 2wd 77 k5 with your name on it. Holler
Wolf is a goat been a fan since day one I seen a lot of talent back in the day
Yelawolf was pretty solid as a rapper💯‼️
Is*
Is*
You can see the frustration when he is talking about the designs he made when allowing other people's ideas slide into his vision he could already see.... Yelawolf is a fkn legend 💪💪💪💯💯💯
Have you ever skated pipes I skaked a lot barefoot camelback mountain Scottsdale Az were I grew up
of all the rappers ive worked with the 4 years i spent in nashville with yelawolf and slumerican were the most influential of my career , one of the last real rockstars , i hope yall give him his flowers while hes here , the stories i could tell you that i never will , this interview is great but there is alot more to his story than yall will ever know , salute to the goat
This guys story is great...he never gave up until he made it big time..
Is this the same Yelawolf that was on the radio in the Bay Area for battle rap Fridays in the early 2000's?
Most likely! lol only 1 Yelawolf
