A lot of people have told me this is their all-time favorite VladTV interview. Definitely one of my most powerful and emotional conversations. Here's the full interview if you haven't watched it yet or want to rewatch it as one full, 2-hour piece. Thank you to everyone for watching.
Realest interview I've ever seen from a real OG. No bragging, no feeling self just an honest spare no feeling perspective. What ever he didn't know he didn't speak on it. Much respect to this man.
Thats how you can tell a real serious gangster from a fake wanna be. He was the type that wouldnt give a fuck if you were scared or not, if you violated hed run down on you regardless. You can tell hes a serious no bullshit dude.
I feel ya. I am from San Francisco Hunters Point. In my 20s I stayed in Oakland and LA (Compton/Long Beach) with my relatives and friends. We know this about this life and this man is speaking his authentic truth... I've seen, heard and survived plenty that many have not. I am 70 now and hope that his bio be seen on screen for our younger generation to recognize the "real fukery"...
You can trace this all back to a Tray Deee interview where he told Vlad how Mob members were dying at the end of deathrow and he mentioned Buntry dying at the gas station. Dope interview one of the best more people like this behind the scenes Vlad.
@@samwydad3216 who in the black community do the same job as him ? Nobody and the shit is important it's history and i'm not talking about this piece but most of the shit vlad did it was pretty good if some stupids dudes talk too much it's on them not on him. he is doing a pretty good job so far and i don't see no blacks taking the lane and come on his turf
Antoine brown : YUEP' MAKE' ME' COME' 2' TEARS'!!!!....I COULD OF EASILY WENT THAT' WAY'.....MA' RELATIVES.....CRIMINALZ.....PIMPZ_& LOCKED UP......& THEY' HATE' ON' ME' 2-THIS-DAY!!!!
This interview is too real. Damn you see the pain emotion and regret in his eyes. He lived his truth and he is speaking it. You really can tell he loved his brother and regrets the decisions he has made. This interview gave him some relief, but he will always wear that regret. This was a great interview.
I couldn’t agree more. This is a strong wise brother that see’s his wrongs and wants to share his experiences with the world 🌎 to teach. To enlighten everyone on the behind the scenes story of Death Row from the beginning.
@@Marcus-tl2sd its pretty sad to see honestly.. as he said "it was a waste of life. at the end of Death row, we all were left with nothing. we are right back where we started..." that was deep...
Vlad is running a business. Here’s how it breaks down. Vlad gets a range between $5,000 - $10,000 every 2 million views. So imagine all the interviews and parts Vlad has done. Now imagine this interview. He could release the whole 2 hour interview and let’s say get 2 million views and make $10,000 one time. Or he can release 20 parts to this interview, each part gets between 300,000-500,000 or more views. Times that by 20 and do the math. Vlad is a smart business man. Another question people have is, why does Vlad do all those flashbacks to his old interviews? It’s because Vlad works those topics in with the current interviews, so he then can flash back to a old interview. For example, here Vlad worked in a flashback to his interview with Big U. He wants you as the viewer to here something Big U says, hoping you will then go to the Big U interview and watch clips of that interview. Then watch the whole interview, adding more views. Do the math on all of the views. Once again, Vlad is a smart business man.
Right another white man doing interviews on black culture and giving nothing back let him investigate his on ppl an do interviews on them dame dash wya another vulture on the loose

Sometimes you just know when somebody is telling the truth. Mob James didnt use this platform to glorify his hood or over exaggerate his gangsta, he just told you what it really was and did not exclude his self from the bullshit. I can't wait for the book...he got one sold so far!
No but he uses this platform to badmouth suge because he is angry with suge, that distorts the truth just as much as somebody glorifying his hood, or exxagerate his gangsta. And to be quite honest maybe he does exxagerate his gangster also. He makes himself look like he was the super og and the others were some squares, you dont know if thats an exaggeration or not He doesnt glorify his hood though because he is a dropout
@@bigbubba4184 Sorry I didn't see it like that. He told you they were all with the bullshit but he backed out wisely and tried to warn others that this was no good. He brought every one of those guys in and ironically he is the last one standing. IT seems like you are biased to anyone who had beef with Suge. Nobody is responsible for what happen to Suge but him. He was consumed by his power and money and let it get the best of him and damaged a lot of people along the way. I think at the core Suge is a good dude and was raised right but you put money and power in the mix and you never know what you might get, I have seen it to many times. If Suge would have just stepped back and took care of his team man aint no telling where this dude would be right now...its just a big sad ass end to a great story!
This interview is worthy of award winning acclaim. I would even say it should be shown to teenagers about the realism of gangster life. Mob James depth of emotion illustrates the tragedy of life in the game, where no code longer exists.
Mob James is a man who posseses great integrity which is why his level of loyalty to his gang set was incomparable to none. Men like him are extremely rare.
and look what happened to him, there’s a reason people like this are rare...it doesn’t pay off other then knowing you yourself are a stand up man, the world doesn’t care.
Much respect to Mob JAMES, you could only wish to have a friend like this.... His raw emotions says a lot about his character and he speaks truth. One of a kind! RIP Buntry 🙏🏽
Some of the guys Vlad has on about the Pac/Biggie murders I take what they say with a grain of salt and they are appearing more to further their own promotion than telling a story. James is one of the few - along with Gene Deal and a few others - who I believe every word he says. Man has no reason to lie and tells the same stories with the same conviction every single time. Much respect to both of them for keeping it real all these years later - even you could easily lie and nobody would know since many of the players are in jail or dead.
Yea he is such a great guy he is a thief, he robbed countless people probably killed people stole hard earned money from working people . Smh yea such a standup guy solid morals. Smh u gotta be about as smart as him. Wtf is wrong with people. Lol goofy azz mf.
His son the little one...the Computer Profi 100%😉 he will tell him..

Kings Gate Tell them how it is. No one knows about street shit like you. Real street niggaz know that if you ain’t in the TH-cam comments talking about the streets, you ain’t a real player. Everywhere I go I hear people talkin about how hard Kings Gate is. You are the only real G out here.
Random interview I started to listen to. In my opinion this interview is excellent, shows how life can go from being on top to the bottom to realizing life is more important than anything in life.
Over 20 years later and we finally get the backstory. This and Reggie's interviews fill the gaps. Vlad you're in a class of your own. Whether you're feds or not...
Mob James shows maturity. It hurt me when I saw this brother cry about losing his brother. Stay strong Mob James. A'lot of us could learn a'lot from you
@ 1:20:09 "....DeathRow for everybody was a waste of life...period!!!" Thee most poignant statement Mob James made in the whole interview!! How ironic yet truly symbolic that the name of your record label would be the precursor and omen of what was to come for all associated with it!!!
I'm sure Dr. Dre and Snoop think otherwise. Warren G too for that matter. An Old head told me awhile back: "You can't straddle the fence, you either gonna be a street N, or a corporate person. You can't be both, & if you don't pick a side fate will decide for you and it won't be the choice you want." This is what happened at death row & with a lotta ppl.
This guy seems more truthful than anyone involved. Not that I think the others are lying. He just seems sincere in everything he says. Doesn't care, or is worried about what anyone thinks if he speaks the truth. He puts the finishing touch on what everyone together says happened. Bottom line, Suge Knight was the root of all evil. Even in the end, his Karma was too nice to him.
The ONLY good thing surrounding Suge Knight is that POS is serving 27 years in prison for voluntary manslaughter. He's 55 now, so hopefully he'll die in prison. If not, he'll be a old man when he finally does get out.
Now, truthful and sincere are not equals linguistically. Suge Knight is not to be compared with the FBI, CIA, Police Union and the Police Department who all had files on Suge Knight and did NOT stop him, arrested him way before all such dispositive things happened only in the Black (B-lack) American survival Projects. This is a typical example of what Organized crime is of Monitored and Engineered by the United Snakes of the America Government in that period of Suge Knight being a product of the Organizers of Organize Criminals. Who were the Presidents in such period of time Suge Knight was the appointed assassin by the System unto his on B-lack and innocent Dark people. Had Suge Knight caused 10% of such menace to Caucasians in the Suburbs and criminal acts out of his appointed jurisdiction, the black neighborhood, he would not have lasted this long. Why describe Suge knight as the root of "all evil" and not Adolph Hitler of Austria/Germany, Benito Mussolini of Italy who killed in the million innocent Ethiopians of Africa, including American, British Military Troops, and Italian civilians, Stalin of Russia, Churchill, Ronald Reagan, the Bushes, Obama, Donald Trump etc.
This clears up all of the bullshit stories I heard about Pac's death. This makes all the sense in the world to me. Vlad's interview with MC Eiht pretty much said the same thing about the situation. Pac ran up on a real solid street dude and basically got himself into some shit way outta his league. Keep us posted on when MOB James book come out. Much make up success to you MOB James.
Sean Mel Yea your right but why did pac run up him? Cuz shit that fool was on bad boys payroll and was taking little weak bounty’s on chains so at the end of the day this shit stemmed from bad boy vs death row beef imo which pac been had beef with bad boys since b4 he signed death row and death row had beef with bad boys b4 they signed pac u feel me
Why do people say way out of his league like pac was scared. Killers/shooters/gangstas die too; niggas just should have been on point after jumping that nigga. Everybody was lacking heavy
This brother is genuine. He so right about loyalty! Sound like PAC was doing too much to be accepted. It’s truly sad. PAC was definitely too smart to be involved in that BS. This was an awesome interview may God bless Mob James and his family.
@@alonzosmith485exactly these people kill me, Pac was always who he was. The Death Row days basics fostered it no one told him to chill like many from the old days who was around Pac.
Once I started watching this interview, I couldn’t stop. This was an honest and powerful, much respect to Mob James, a real cat. Looking forward to another one
My brother James, I feel your pain, I lost my baby brother last December! Your mother said "your friends are not who you think they are... your family are your friends"... Amen to your mothers wisdom!!!!!!! Vlad and James thank you for this interview!! Chi-town....Peace Out!!!
This was a serious interview. It is amazing that he is still here to tell his story considering what he has been through. Everyone that glorifies and want to live the gang lifestyle need to watch this video.
100% of ex or even current gang bangers say, "Do NOT get involved in gang life. Why would you WANT this? We did it JUST TO SURVIVE." Yet, today's generation glorifies it and VOLUNTARILY WANTS to bang. smh.
It because of that 100%, 99% also "humble brag" about their former exploits. Hence, they glorify it whilst also saying don't do it. That's like me eating chocolate ice cream in a fat person's face and saying, "This will kill you, so don't eat it."
That's because they don't have a fucking clue what it actually is. lol. Exhibit A: clownhair snitch boy Teriyaki 69 who rolled on the whole world when his gang got caught up. They're fairweather bangers--when times are good, they're "down for their set." When they're facing 45 years, it's time to hang up their colors & join the FBI team.
This is the best Interview you've done. This guy, he's the real. Real old.school gangster and I'm sure he got bodies but he'll never flex on it. Much respect.
if only young folks full of ego and testosterone had the mindset of a middle aged man who doesn't have that ego/testosterone fueled outlook anymore. I guess what I'm saying is.. easier to look back on regrets when your desires change than forward when young and hungry. truly helpful change has to come from fathers to sons. but thats not really happening.
❤❤❤❤ Hat's off to you MOB James.. GREAT interview. If this interview had last for 7 days straight non-stop I would have watched it 7 days straight Non-Stop
I like this man, he's not a big mouth, you can tell everything that he's saying is real, he's not trying to impress anyone, he has a lot of integrity, and integrity = respect, very refreshing to see for once
@@Charlie-gv3zt What did he say that was wrong? The fact he didn't certify Tupac and put him on to the set? You gotta realize that this dude had been shot 3 fucking times by the time he had met Tupac. Dude came outta nowhere from Brooklyn, he's a musical genius. But now he wants to play crazy and start claiming the set.... yeaa... maybe for fun but not on some real shit. That's basically what he said too, some of the other Mobb dudes were starstruck and tell Tupac he's Mobb! But I can tell James been through too much shit to simply accept that, where was he at during wartime? not there on the set.
Congratulations man I'm sober too now and have a beautiful family used for 20yrs I'm a poly addict and alcoholic sobriety is a struggle most days but well worth it keep up the hard work and my heart goes out to ALL PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM ADDICTION
Congrats on getting sober. I recently lost my family. My home. My dog. Everything. And I’m only on suboxone! Not even getting high anymore for like 8 years. I just can’t get off it. It effects me differently. Makes me feel like shit. Can’t work. Can hardly go out in public. Tried to kill myself a month ago. I hope to god I am able to get clean soon. I’m trying.
Ya he was the biggest waste of talent cause he was killed, but that's exactly what he was saying they were all such a sad waste of life for no reason but suges ego.

I grew up in Compton on Tichenor St. I saw things changing when PCP hit the streets in the mid 1970's. Before that my neighborhood was beautiful. Around 1980 the crack explosion hit; the devastation was amazing. Today I am 62yrs. old and it still bothers me that that happened. I went into law enforcement eventually.
My family eventually left Compton, too. My uncle, Wendell Handy was a school board president back when the community was wholesome. Eventually, most moved to Orange County.
This man is as real as it gets. I am so thankful that he was open and honest about the horrible street life and the tragic end that is awaiting you if you choose the "Thug Life". Youngster's please learn from this man.
People don’t understand the pain a big bro feels when you know you sent your little bro down a path you knew was wrong. that feeling is one you’ll never shake.
I Love PAC he my All-Time Favorite Emcee but Mob James is Absolutely Correct, he had No Business Punching Orlando, I Understand PAC was only 25 at the time but Like he Said Suge Should’ve put him to the Side and Let the Homies Handle that💯💯%
There is no way in hell you can blame a 25 year old young rapper Young sex symbol fresh out of prison and around a mob of gangsters to not respond the way he did at 25. Tupac was a revolutionary no doubt and fully grown as most 25 year olds were in the 90s...but he was still a kid.
Maybe You’re Correct! But it Most Definitely was the Wrong Decision on Pac’s behalf because had he not Punched Baby Lane he would’ve Never been Shot that Night! U can’t Argue that, that’s Facts💯💯%
@@sincere8367 You are absolutely right. I been saying this for last past 20 yrs. He shouldn't have put his or feet Baby Lane. I tell ppl all the time, we don't look up to rappers in L.A like they do in other states. We like your music but, you get wrong, fucc you.
"Loyalty is out the window these days". Being from a similar era, I could relate to the same frustration and disillusionment he felt in that statement. Unfortunately people like MOB James are a very rare breed these days. Good luck to him and his family.
Had to run it back.. This interview gets better and better every time I watch it - I know he gonna get emotional about Buntry but still gets me everytime...
The new interview is just as great. I feel sorry for MOB JAMES, I believe he's not inherently violent. His father abused him from 7yrs to 15yrs old. Vicious beatings. So sad MOB JAMES childhood was horrible
@@number3stunner118 that's basically all it was. You couldn't go home bc either there was no food at home bc momma and pops was on crack or bc you'd get fucked up by your parents bc you was supposed to be at school learning. So instead, go to school to eat, and ditch the classes
This is the best interview that vlad has ever done hands down. I love hearing these old stories about death row from actual people who were a part of it or worked for them.
Hands down one of the best interviews. Mr. James tells it like it is. I feel really bad when he talks loosing his brother. Great interview.Young people listen to these interviews and learn.
Just forward it to as many, and as often. Be comsistant (not con-sistant) by forwarding it like the Jehovah's Witnesses, forward this Life Saving Interview.
1:18:20...At the end of the day, everybody got nothing and everything came to ruin. “Death Row for everybody was a waste of life.” Mob James Much respect to Mob James. It takes a very special man to admit a past wrong
A lot of people have told me this is their all-time favorite VladTV interview. Definitely one of my most powerful and emotional conversations. Here's the full interview if you haven't watched it yet or want to rewatch it as one full, 2-hour piece. Thank you to everyone for watching.

Thats how you can tell a real serious gangster from a fake wanna be. He was the type that wouldnt give a fuck if you were scared or not, if you violated hed run down on you regardless. You can tell hes a serious no bullshit dude.
I’m 67 years old and I’m from Oakland,been around since 1953 in the bay. This was the best I’ve heard.
STRAIGHT NO CUT.

I am 70 now and hope that his bio be seen on screen for our younger generation to recognize the "real fukery"...
2 years later and this interview is still so powerful.
Your entire realm of emotion is on full display in this video... from laughter to anger and then pain (sadness).
This is the best Vlad video by far.
Let's be real...a ton of folks love to clown Vlad, but this was a damn good interview. Hat's off to you, sir!
For sure 😎
You can trace this all back to a Tray Deee interview where he told Vlad how Mob members were dying at the end of deathrow and he mentioned Buntry dying at the gas station. Dope interview one of the best more people like this behind the scenes Vlad.
fuck Vlad. This fucker was born in Kiev. He thinks he is black and knows everything. He is making money out of these guys. So fuck him
@@samwydad3216 who in the black community do the same job as him ? Nobody and the shit is important it's history and i'm not talking about this piece but most of the shit vlad did it was pretty good if some stupids dudes talk too much it's on them not on him. he is doing a pretty good job so far and i don't see no blacks taking the lane and come on his turf
Frank Henry exactly Vlad deserves ratings where is this hate coming from.
Shot out the OG Mob James .......By far best interview ever
This was the best interview. You can see the remorse in this man. When he talked about his mom🥺🥺🥺 he’s learned some hard lessons.
I watched this interview twice already these death row stories never get old.

That goes without saying.

Over 20 years later and we finally get the backstory. This and Reggie's interviews fill the gaps.
Vlad you're in a class of your own. Whether you're feds or not...
😂😂😂😂
@Lauren Anderson feds gotta eat too lol
lol. Vlad ain't no damn feds. He's a journalist and journalists asks questions that make people uncomfortable. Look no further than Oprah.
@@videoorgy she a fed too lol.
@@mrmike743 lol
Mob James shows maturity. It hurt me when I saw this brother cry about losing his brother. Stay strong Mob James. A'lot of us could learn a'lot from you
Hustle Marsalis Damn Right. 👊🏽
@Adrian Flores Suge had his hands tied into alot
💯💯💯
@@hustlemarsalis6063 what does that even mean? That can mean anything.
🤣🤣 he left his gang and joined another gang. So mature. Too many d... people. You people are very easily impressed. 🤯
@ 1:20:09 "....DeathRow for everybody was a waste of life...period!!!" Thee most poignant statement Mob James made in the whole interview!! How ironic yet truly symbolic that the name of your record label would be the precursor and omen of what was to come for all associated with it!!!
giggs112008 THIS!!!
I'm sure Dr. Dre and Snoop think otherwise. Warren G too for that matter. An Old head told me awhile back: "You can't straddle the fence, you either gonna be a street N, or a corporate person. You can't be both, & if you don't pick a side fate will decide for you and it won't be the choice you want." This is what happened at death row & with a lotta ppl.
giggs112008 yes!!!
One of the best TH-cam comments I’ve seen, hats off to you sir
😄😄😄😄😄🙂truly
By far the best interview on this channel ever.
This guy seems more truthful than anyone involved. Not that I think the others are lying. He just seems sincere in everything he says. Doesn't care, or is worried about what anyone thinks if he speaks the truth. He puts the finishing touch on what everyone together says happened. Bottom line, Suge Knight was the root of all evil. Even in the end, his Karma was too nice to him.
Tammy F yea I think your right. In addition to that it looks like he has lots of anger towards suge .
The ONLY good thing surrounding Suge Knight is that POS is serving 27 years in prison for voluntary manslaughter. He's 55 now, so hopefully he'll die in prison. If not, he'll be a old man when he finally does get out.
Now, truthful and sincere are not equals linguistically. Suge Knight is not to be compared with the FBI, CIA, Police Union and the Police Department who all had files on Suge Knight and did NOT stop him, arrested him way before all such dispositive things happened only in the Black (B-lack) American survival Projects. This is a typical example of what Organized crime is of Monitored and Engineered by the United Snakes of the America Government in that period of Suge Knight being a product of the Organizers of Organize Criminals. Who were the Presidents in such period of time Suge Knight was the appointed assassin by the System unto his on B-lack and innocent Dark people.
Had Suge Knight caused 10% of such menace to Caucasians in the Suburbs and criminal acts out of his appointed jurisdiction, the black neighborhood, he would not have lasted this long.
Why describe Suge knight as the root of "all evil" and not Adolph Hitler of Austria/Germany, Benito Mussolini of Italy who killed in the million innocent Ethiopians of Africa, including American, British Military Troops, and Italian civilians, Stalin of Russia, Churchill, Ronald Reagan, the Bushes, Obama, Donald Trump etc.
Amanda Mata he definitely does. Suge is a contributing factor to his brother’s death.
I love you🙄
Best interview I have seen from Vlad on Deathrow, 2pac era. You can tell Mob James has been through it all.
This clears up all of the bullshit stories I heard about Pac's death. This makes all the sense in the world to me. Vlad's interview with MC Eiht pretty much said the same thing about the situation. Pac ran up on a real solid street dude and basically got himself into some shit way outta his league. Keep us posted on when MOB James book come out. Much make up success to you MOB James.
Sean Mel Yea your right but why did pac run up him? Cuz shit that fool was on bad boys payroll and was taking little weak bounty’s on chains so at the end of the day this shit stemmed from bad boy vs death row beef imo which pac been had beef with bad boys since b4 he signed death row and death row had beef with bad boys b4 they signed pac u feel me
Don't know about Bad Boy.. but bottom line is Pac got into something that Suge should've squashed or put somebody else on homez.
@@BigMel216 Boom!
Sean Mel you are correct sir.
Why do people say way out of his league like pac was scared. Killers/shooters/gangstas die too; niggas just should have been on point after jumping that nigga. Everybody was lacking heavy
This brother is genuine. He so right about loyalty! Sound like PAC was doing too much to be accepted. It’s truly sad. PAC was definitely too smart to be involved in that BS. This was an awesome interview may God bless Mob James and his family.
PAC was not real, man just said PAC was the money...
Pac was wild before deathrow. He didn't change.
@@alonzosmith485exactly these people kill me, Pac was always who he was. The Death Row days basics fostered it no one told him to chill like many from the old days who was around Pac.
Once I started watching this interview, I couldn’t stop. This was an honest and powerful, much respect to Mob James, a real cat. Looking forward to another one
"Some cat wit the wheelchair was talkin Crip & allat, I pushed him over & all hell broke loose" 😂😂😂
@ LMFAO IM FADED AF DAWG THAT SHIT KILLED ME BRUH
Truly Makel my fav part

Watched this again. This has to be my favourite Vlad interview. Salute Mob James.
Mobb a real 1
@@kennethhaynes502 he should have written a book,
My brother James, I feel your pain, I lost my baby brother last December! Your mother said "your friends are not who you think they are... your family are your friends"... Amen to your mothers wisdom!!!!!!! Vlad and James thank you for this interview!! Chi-town....Peace Out!!!
This was a serious interview. It is amazing that he is still here to tell his story considering what he has been through. Everyone that glorifies and want to live the gang lifestyle need to watch this video.
Pp you see the man talking
It’s already to late to be honest look around
100% of ex or even current gang bangers say, "Do NOT get involved in gang life. Why would you WANT this? We did it JUST TO SURVIVE." Yet, today's generation glorifies it and VOLUNTARILY WANTS to bang. smh.
That didn't just start with this generation.
It because of that 100%, 99% also "humble brag" about their former exploits. Hence, they glorify it whilst also saying don't do it. That's like me eating chocolate ice cream in a fat person's face and saying, "This will kill you, so don't eat it."
That's because they don't have a fucking clue what it actually is. lol. Exhibit A: clownhair snitch boy Teriyaki 69 who rolled on the whole world when his gang got caught up. They're fairweather bangers--when times are good, they're "down for their set." When they're facing 45 years, it's time to hang up their colors & join the FBI team.
@@MsNooneinparticular i get what u saying. What would u do if facing 45?
@@lukastanner6504 good question
This is the best Interview you've done. This guy, he's the real. Real old.school gangster and I'm sure he got bodies but he'll never flex on it. Much respect.
this man can make a big difference in the world by going on tours talking about all these experiences he went through and how much pain he has had.
if only young folks full of ego and testosterone had the mindset of a middle aged man who doesn't have that ego/testosterone fueled outlook anymore. I guess what I'm saying is.. easier to look back on regrets when your desires change than forward when young and hungry. truly helpful change has to come from fathers to sons. but thats not really happening.
The man who punked Suge Knight... Respect SIR.
he simply just need to preach Jesus Christ because he has seen enough of his mercy on his life.
I was determined to wait until the Full Interview was released
❤❤❤❤ Hat's off to you MOB James.. GREAT interview. If this interview had last for 7 days straight non-stop I would have watched it 7 days straight Non-Stop
I Never watched a video this long, had my full attention
I agree. He has this mix of vulnerability, anger, regret and pride . Its not thunder or lightning. He is a quiet and sudden tornado of a man.
@@trainme4798 me as well
@@raynarounds8957 I agree
I just want to say u one fine negra Mama's
This is the most intriguing interview that Vlad has done
I agree despite of all the fuckery had done had in the past.
i find myself drawn to this interview once a week ... soo many jewels dropped thanks Uncle MOB James sending love and light
I finally understand what happened. Thanks MOB JAMES.
Mob James is my favorite Vlad interview, followed by BG Knocc out. Props for this one 💯👌🏿
G W Yea I just watched BG right before this
I like this man, he's not a big mouth, you can tell everything that he's saying is real, he's not trying to impress anyone, he has a lot of integrity, and integrity = respect, very refreshing to see for once
He is capping and hating!
@@Charlie-gv3zt how? Explain this statement
@@nogrecords The dude is a hater ! He is not a fan of Tupac.
HE'S ON VLAD TALKING ABOUT AN OPEN CASE HE'S DEFINITELY A BIG MOUTH
@@Charlie-gv3zt What did he say that was wrong? The fact he didn't certify Tupac and put him on to the set? You gotta realize that this dude had been shot 3 fucking times by the time he had met Tupac. Dude came outta nowhere from Brooklyn, he's a musical genius. But now he wants to play crazy and start claiming the set.... yeaa... maybe for fun but not on some real shit. That's basically what he said too, some of the other Mobb dudes were starstruck and tell Tupac he's Mobb! But I can tell James been through too much shit to simply accept that, where was he at during wartime? not there on the set.
I´m sorry for all his loses and pain, much respect for Mob James for open up his heart to share truth. Moving interview from a human point of view.
Brother, it is ok to cry. Heal yourself, god bless.
Manolo Cepeda crying is healing. Real men do it shamelessly 💯
Manolo Cepeda amen
Right..great comment ❤
@callyharley Whatever.
@@abrahamisaacmuciusiii691 whatever.
*HE KEPT 💯 NO LIES ... TRUE OG !!!*
REVIEW REPORT FALSE. Hes excluding himself with all of Suges incidents. Smfh
This guy is bout and paid for.
Unfortunately. Tupac is a perfect story of how keeping it real goes wrong.
Lol his last words were “Fuck you” to the cop. Tragedy but ultimately the greatest legacy in hip-hop arguably and clearly the realest of all time.
@@robflores5172 that shit a story that's bs they all actors
Suge is a diamond example of it too
Actually that wasn’t really pac. PAC was a G but no gangbanger. He was more a revolutionist in prophetic form I think
Penry Tha Janitor suge was no g either. He just a bully that had money and let the money get to his head. He was a jock
One of the best interviews ever. Thanks my man.
I never heard of Mob James but god damn..this the Realest interview i ever seen on vlad.
Yea. Great interview.
Righteous
Check out the gangster chronicals podcast it’s dope he helps run that
MOb James need his own line of Gangster fedora hats wit the red feather at the side..
Yea.. Your on to something. Alll he needs is someone to push it.
Word stacking money!
Bro hit him with a proposal
He not MOB no more tho
@@KarlMayBach what that gotta do with my statement?
This guy has been through a lot. Much respect. I’m 48. Lost a lot of friends . And sober. Great interview . Thanks.
Philip Reed Wallace 🤝👍🏽
Congratulations man I'm sober too now and have a beautiful family used for 20yrs I'm a poly addict and alcoholic sobriety is a struggle most days but well worth it keep up the hard work and my heart goes out to ALL PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM ADDICTION
Congrats on getting sober. I recently lost my family. My home. My dog. Everything. And I’m only on suboxone! Not even getting high anymore for like 8 years. I just can’t get off it. It effects me differently. Makes me feel like shit. Can’t work. Can hardly go out in public. Tried to kill myself a month ago. I hope to god I am able to get clean soon. I’m trying.
@@russelljennings4065 Are you doing better?
Suge a neep. Sure a turnip-minus. Suge never ate a haggis unharmed.
Still the best death row / Compton interview made ever.
I never watched a full Vlad interview until this one. Shout out to Mob James.
same
MOB James real O.G.!!!
lowkey dissed Vlad
I have but this was the most exciting one ever.☀tribe
Really?! None of Tray Deee's interviews??
Best Interview. This man speaks volumes. Mob James 💯💯💯
best interview ever, real talk... not arrogant or exaggerated like keef. I hope you paid this man well vlad!!!!!
I guarantee he sold some books because of this interview.
Dude is an O.G.
I'm glad he survived.
God Bless🕯
Mob James summarized Deathrow records clearly as a "Waste Of Life" &I think 2Pac's murder was the biggest waste of all!
Ya he was the biggest waste of talent cause he was killed, but that's exactly what he was saying they were all such a sad waste of life for no reason but suges ego.

I grew up in Compton on Tichenor St. I saw things changing when PCP hit the streets in the mid 1970's. Before that my neighborhood was beautiful. Around 1980 the crack explosion hit; the devastation was amazing. Today I am 62yrs. old and it still bothers me that that happened. I went into law enforcement eventually.
It amaze's me how it went from beautiful one day to everyone wanting to get high off drugs the next it just dosnt make sense. Really sad man
My homegirl stayed on Tichnor by the train. That neighborhood is not the same
My family eventually left Compton, too. My uncle, Wendell Handy was a school board president back when the community was wholesome. Eventually, most moved to Orange County.
John Mcfirstley yeah my pops and his friends the twins say the same thing about Compton
It's happening in my home city of Dublin. Drug changing everything
Hands down best Interview I've seen Vlad! My favorite!. Couldn't wait to watch in it's entirety!
BEST INTERVIEW THIS YEAR!
🐀 lover
this interviews keep me going at work.. they've become my daily routine.
Suge was basically the puppet master, turning everybody against each other.
Tire........he got it in the end
Dangerous game
@cloudykai Tires do be pretty funny tho.
@@rogersmith6411 He got it because he was about to rat out the master.
@@rogersmith6411 Tire.... 😆😆😆
Respect Vlad. Respect MOB James. Loyalty is everything and real men cry. 👊🏾
A 1 Amen
@Tyler Guyton You gotta be kiddin! Get over yourself
Loyalty my ass
This interview is a classic! One of the best I have watched on here hands down.
This is the best VLad TV interview to date.
Mob James, Big U, and John Salley are the best interviews that you have done Vlad. Kudos.
This man is as real as it gets. I am so thankful that he was open and honest about the horrible street life and the tragic end that is awaiting you if you choose the "Thug Life". Youngster's please learn from this man.
Exactly right!
im getting EDUCATION LIFE tattoo on my belly
.
I didn't chose the Thug life, the Thug life chose me.
This man is amazing. The life he lived, the the experiences, gave him a wisdom and out look at life that is truly amazing. Best interview ever.
How is he amazing?
He's a rat 🐀😂
Vlad will get tears out of even the hardest people..
Real men do cry, and he needed that release.
I'm really glad he got a chance to release that!! God bless him and help him to heal.
People don’t understand the pain a big bro feels when you know you sent your little bro down a path you knew was wrong. that feeling is one you’ll never shake.
I Love PAC he my All-Time Favorite Emcee but Mob James is Absolutely Correct, he had No Business Punching Orlando, I Understand PAC was only 25 at the time but Like he Said Suge Should’ve put him to the Side and Let the Homies Handle that💯💯%
Yea Pac should've stayed out the way
There is no way in hell you can blame a 25 year old young rapper Young sex symbol fresh out of prison and around a mob of gangsters to not respond the way he did at 25. Tupac was a revolutionary no doubt and fully grown as most 25 year olds were in the 90s...but he was still a kid.
Dee pac lives & does thug life
Maybe You’re Correct! But it Most Definitely was the Wrong Decision on Pac’s behalf because had he not Punched Baby Lane he would’ve Never been Shot that Night! U can’t Argue that, that’s Facts💯💯%
@@sincere8367 You are absolutely right. I been saying this for last past 20 yrs. He shouldn't have put his or feet Baby Lane. I tell ppl all the time, we don't look up to rappers in L.A like they do in other states. We like your music but, you get wrong, fucc you.
One of the best interviews I’ve ever seen!❤️🔥
The best interview I seen in a long time. I’m glad I seen this. 💯
"Loyalty is out the window these days".
Being from a similar era, I could relate to the same frustration and disillusionment he felt in that statement.
Unfortunately people like MOB James are a very rare breed these days. Good luck to him and his family.
FACTS!💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
@cloudykai It's that bullshit "kids these days" mentality that every generation goes through eventually. Real fucking annoying, but what can you do...
Sad but True SMH
That was a DAMN GOOD INTERVIEW. Definitely one of the best ever.
Had to run it back.. This interview gets better and better every time I watch it - I know he gonna get emotional about Buntry but still gets me everytime...
The realest interview yet! Respect to the OG!!!
Get MOB James in again PLEASE
Pie Face yeah fr since you got Reggie again
Second interview first part just dropped
He's back
The new interview is just as great. I feel sorry for MOB JAMES, I believe he's not inherently violent. His father abused him from 7yrs to 15yrs old. Vicious beatings. So sad MOB JAMES childhood was horrible
MOB JAMES: I mean, WE WENT TO SCHOOL JUST FOR LUNCH 🤣
Weedy James
#Savage!!!
and it damn near sounded like the lunch was fuel to go fight some mofos.
@@number3stunner118 that's basically all it was. You couldn't go home bc either there was no food at home bc momma and pops was on crack or bc you'd get fucked up by your parents bc you was supposed to be at school learning. So instead, go to school to eat, and ditch the classes
@@miguelmarquez7505 that's not always the case!
@@weedyjames8122 i know its not ALWAYS the case. But for the most part.
My gosh... This interview is ridiculously good. Huge work partner!
This is the best interview that vlad has ever done hands down. I love hearing these old stories about death row from actual people who were a part of it or worked for them.
This by far is the best interview ever! I salute you James. Much respect 👊🏾
This man has seen some shit.They shouldmake a movie about his experiences
U can tell mob James would smoke Suge if he ever had the chance.
He said "I should have done something to Suge" when he was crying. He would have killed that nigga early.
Possible

I met him & i don’t Believe that..
He’s on the mend... 🙏
@@0555pink yea but with Suge its not just any other dude, may be a different situation.
He had 10000 chances to smoke suge......hmmmm
One of the greatest and most historic Death Row interviews of all time! Thank you @djvlad
Hands down one of the best interviews. Mr. James tells it like it is. I feel really bad when he talks loosing his brother. Great interview.Young people listen to these interviews and learn.
this interview needs to be on netflix
nxckvxnn For Real. Not Just Netflix but all Dem other So Called Networks. No Doubt. WORD........
Just forward it to as many, and as often. Be comsistant (not con-sistant) by forwarding it like the Jehovah's Witnesses, forward this Life Saving Interview.

For what? Its free on here. Who wants to pay.
